| Defect | Due to an inappropriate program in the engine control unit, the contact point of the throttle position sensor may wear prematurely due to repeated minute movements, and wear debris may accumulate. As a result, the accumulated wear debris at the contact point may prevent the correct throttle opening from being recognized, causing engine speed fluctuations, illuminating the engine warning light, and in the worst case, leading to engine stall. |
| Component | Engine (Engine Control Unit) |
| Remedy | For all affected vehicles, rewrite the engine control unit program to the countermeasure program and replace the throttle position sensor with a new one. |
