## What is wrong

THE DASH INSULATOR RETAINER MAY NOT HAVE BEEN FULLY ENGAGED.  THE RETAINER MAY DISENGAGE, AND IN SOME CASES IT COULD BECOME LODGED ABOVE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL PIVOT.  THIS COULD PREVENT THE ENGINE FROM FULLY RETURNING TO IDLE.

CORRECTION:  VEHICLES WILL BE INSPECTED FOR PROPER INSTALLATION OF THE DASH INSULATOR RETAINER AND RE\-INSTALL IF REQUIRED.
