A lack of clearance between the engine cover and the speed control cable connector meant the throttle could get stick open when the accelerator was fully depressed. Following a petition from the Center for Auto Safety, NHTSA opened an investigation and eventually issued a recall to fix the sticky throttles in the 2001–2004 model years.
Even with the throttles fixed, the 2001 model year could still have trouble stopping due to multiple problems with leaking brakes.
I locked my doors and went into Steak n Shake, when I came out I was unable to unlock my passenger door. I tried my remote clicker, the unlock button on the door, my key and also tried to move the manual lock from right to left.
Now in order to drive, I have to climb thru the passenger side to the drivers seat. I am not a spring chicken and winter is coming.
Someone please give me a quick fix, that wont cost a lot to fix.
