What NHTSA recorded

The defect is in the engine accelerator system. The accelerator pedal may not align with the center of the floor mounted pedal stop bracket. The potential exists for the pedal, when depressed, to slip off and to the side of the pedal stop, holding the accelerator in the open throttle position.

Remedy

The dealer will align the accelerator pedal to the center of the stop bracket free of charge.
