BUICK OMEGA Recalls

The Buick Omega has 1 recall affecting the 1975 model year, where vehicles with the 260 cubic inch engine have a throttle cable conduit cover that can crack at the firewall, sharply bending the cable, fraying its internal wires, and causing the throttle to seize at whatever position it is in when the failure occurs. If the throttle seizes open, the engine will not respond to the driver releasing the accelerator, making it impossible to reduce speed without shutting off the engine or applying heavy braking.
