THE FACTORY THROTTLE IS TOO LONG, AND HAS 6 QUARTER INCH NUTS AROUND THE CABLE WHICH IS LOCATED BEHIND THE GAS PEDAL. WHEN THE 6 INCH NUT JAMS/STICKS THE THROTTLE STAYS WIDE OPEN. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE MOTOR HOME CONTINUOUS TO ACCELERATE UNTIL IT IS TURNED OFF. ALSO, LEFT REAR ROTOR CRACKED, CAUSING THE BRAKE PADS TO WEAR OUT PREMATURELY. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED BECAUSE THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER WAS RUSTED. THIS RENDERED THE REAR BRAKES INOPERATIVE.*AK
