2 Speed Control Cable problem of the 1996 Oldsmobile Cutlass

Failure Date: 07/14/1999

This is my second report of the throttle cable snapping while driving. I never received any response to my first complaint, which I deem a clear and present danger to the operation of this type of motor vehicle. The throttle cable should not snap every 20,000 miles whenoperating the vehicle. Something is wrong on the manufacturers part. How many gas accelerator cables have been reported as snapping while driving? thank you, manley stampler.
