Reasons the product is recalled
There is a possibility that the throttle cable could corrode and become cracked or kinked. If the outer cable is damaged in this way, it could cause the inner cable (throttle cable) to fray over time from wear. If the frayed inner cable catches on the damaged outer cable, throttle movement can be increasingly impaired, which may eventually lead to the throttle being incapable of returning to the idle position.
