## What is wrong

IF THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ACTIVATED AND A PRESET SPEED IS RESUMED BY OPERATING THE "RESUME" SWITCH, THE TENSION ON THE ACCELERATOR CABLE WILL DECREASE ALLOWING THE CABLE TO SAG. AS A RESULT, THE CABLE COULD BECOME ENTANGLED WITH A WATER PIPE BRACKET AND NOT RETURN TO ITS FULL IDLE POSITION. THIS CONDITION COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.  CORRECTION: ACCELERATOR CABLE BRACKET WILL BE REPLACED WITH A REDESIGNED VERSION WHICH WILL REPOSITION THE ACCELERATOR CABLE.
