Water can accumulate within the speed control cable conduit. If enough water accumulates, it could freeze within a low area of the cable routing when exposed to a long term cold soak at temperatures at least several degrees below freezing. .

Conequence: Driver control of vehicle speed using the speed control system or the accelerator control system would be diminished increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. .

Remedy: Dealers will add a boot to the speed control cable. .

The rear lower subframe mount plate nut can experience stress corrosion cracking if subjected to long term exposure to road salts. This can result in fracture and loss of the structural integrity of the subframe mount attachment. Detachment of the body mounts at the rear corners of the subframe, which supports the engine and transmission, allows the rear corners of the subframe to drop. .

Conequence: If both rear corners drop, steering would become suddenly very difficult, affecting vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash. .

Remedy: Dealers will install subframe rear mount bolts, reinforcement plates, and plate nuts. .

Notes: Note: this recall campaign supercedes recall campaign 93v-106. Owner notification is expected to begin january 18, 1999.
