THE ENGINE SHUTDOWN CABLE, WHICH IS ROUTED BETWEEN THE DASHBOARD AND THE FIREWALL, MAY SAG FROM ITS INSTALLED POSITION AND INTERFERE WITH NORMAL ACCELERATOR LINKAGE TRAVEL. SHOULD THIS OCCUR, THE ACCELERATOR COULD PREVENT ENGINE SPEED FROM RETURNING TO IDLE. THIS COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.
Transport Canada recorded this notice in capitals, as its system did for many years. It is reproduced here exactly as published.
