Consumer Description

IMPACT TO FRONT OF VEHICLE CAUSED THE CRUISE CONTROL SERVO TO PULL THE CRUISE CONTROL CABLE FASTENER OUT OF ITS BRACKET AFTER THE RETAINING TABS BROKE OFF. THIS CAUSED THE ENGINE TO RACE OUT OF CONTROL, WELL OVER 3,000RPM. THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY STOPPED BY CRASHING INTO A WALL!! I HAVE THE REPORT FROM THE INSURANCE INVESTIGATOR TO SUBSTANTIATE THE CAUSE, I FEEL THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE AND COULD POSSIBLY HAPPEN AGAIN IF A SIMILAR IMPACT TAKES PLACE. THE OCCUPANTS MAY NOT BE AS FORTUNATE AS MY HUSBAND AND I, WE WALKED AWAY, OTHERS MAY NOT!
