## What is wrong

The potential defect involves the electronic programming of the digital engine management control unit with regard to throttle valve control.  On certain vehicles, when moving slowly in first gear, with low but constant throttle \(approximately 1,500 \- 2,000 rpm\), and the clutch pedal partially depressed \(approximately 1 \- 2 inches\) and held at this position, engine speed may increase resulting in undesired vehicle acceleration.  Correction:  Dealers will reprogram the digital engine management control unit.
