I was talking to a guy from Ford today (about a different matter) but I asked him again about this particular recall, to explain it to me again. He said that this rubber grommet on the acc cable had a fault where it would break under very very hard acceleration but wasn't something commonly seen on passenger vehicles - mainly on police issue vehicles.

He said though that it wasn't limited to police car's only and that it was a national recall although that's where most of the work was done and they rarely found this to be an issue in the standard pass car.

I think I wrote that right lol :
