Repeated instance of this may result in flaring the cover end causing a binding condition when speed control is disengaged.  Drivers may experience a high idle or a condition where it would appear speed control would not disengage.  Braking function would be maintained though stopping distances may be increased.  Correction: Dealer will replace the speed control cable.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"03S03","part_number":null,"units":28596,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Autres","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains Explorer, Explorer Sport et Explorer Sport Trac, la gaine qui recouvre le toron du câble du régulateur de vitesse peut entrer en contact avec le raccord d'extrémité du conduit lorsque le régulateur de vitesse est engagé. L'engagement répété du régulateur de vitesse alors que le problème subsiste peut entraîner l'évasement de l'extrémité de la gaine et faire gripper le câble lors du désengagement du régulateur. Il se peut alors que le moteur tourne indûment en régime de ralenti élevé ou que le régulateur reste coincé à la vitesse sélectionnée. Le freinage comme tel ne serait pas touché, mais il se peut que cette défaillance fasse augmenter les distances de freinage. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le câble du régulateur de vitesse."},"vehicles":[{"year":1999,"make":"FORD","model":"EXPLORER","vehicle_id":"1999_ford_explorer","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2000,"make":"FORD","model":"EXPLORER","vehicle_id":"2000_ford_explorer","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"FORD","model":"EXPLORER","vehicle_id":"2001_ford_explorer","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2001,"make":"FORD","model":"EXPLORER SPORT TRAC","vehicle_id":"2001_ford_explorer-sport-trac","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2003189"}
