Attachment I - Dealer Service and Parts Information
CONDITION OF CONCERN
On certain 2002-2004 Tribute vehicles equipped with 3.0-liter engines, the accelerator cable may prevent the throttle from returning to the idle position,
possibly resulting in elevated engine speeds while driving. An unexpected increase in engine idle speed may increase stopping distance and may result in
a vehicle crash without warning.
SUBJECT VEHICLES
OWNER NOTIFICATION
