Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Engine revs to 3250 rpm and is uncontrollable. that means the thing in 5th gear races to about 80 mph! engine would not idel down regardless of inputs by driver. very dangerious. happened intermittanly until wiring connection failed, at which time dealer was able to clean connection. took 5 months and many trips to the dealer for cause to be identified. doubt if other than rountine diagnostic was attempted as dealer was unable to "recreate" the event until engine was 3250 rpm fulltime . i feel this is a very unsafe contition and should cause action by mfg. *ak
