Problem: THE POTENTIAL FOR FUEL LEAKAGE EXISTS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AT THE FUEL RESERVOIR SEAM AND ITS HOSE CONNECTIONS. THE FUEL RESERVOIR IS A SILVER COLORED CAN MOUNTED TO THE AIR CLEANER. Recall Details - 11/21/1984
Problem: AN EMISSIONS SYSTEM VALVE MAY ALLOW AN OVERLY RICH MIXTURE (EXCESSIVE FUEL) IN THE ENGINE DURING DECELERATION. THE MIXTURE OF AIR AND EXCESSIVE FUEL CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL WHILE STOPPING, COASTING, OR TURNING. Recall Details - 9/24/1984
1984 Recalls ↓
Problem: THE POTENTIAL FOR FUEL LEAKAGE EXISTS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AT THE FUEL RESERVOIR SEAM AND ITS HOSE CONNECTIONS. THE FUEL RESERVOIR IS A SILVER COLORED CAN MOUNTED TO THE AIR CLEANER. Recall Details - 11/21/1984
1982 Recalls ↓
Problem: CLAMP BOLTS INSTALLED ON CERTAIN VEHICLES MAY CONTAIN CRACKS. EVENTUALLY THESE BOLTS MAY BREAK THROUGH, CAUSING SEPARATION OF THE BALL JOINT FROM THE STEERING KNUCKLE. Recall Details - 5/27/1982
Problem: THE AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL SWITCH MAY STICK IN THE "RESUME" POSITION RESTRICTING RETURN MOVEMENT. THIS WILL NOT ALLOW THE NORMAL BRAKE PEDAL OPERATION TO DEACTIVATE THE SYSTEM. Recall Details - 9/22/1981
1981 Recalls ↓
Problem: THE AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL SWITCH MAY STICK IN THE "RESUME" POSITION RESTRICTING RETURN MOVEMENT. THIS WILL NOT ALLOW THE NORMAL BRAKE PEDAL OPERATION TO DEACTIVATE THE SYSTEM. Recall Details - 9/22/1981
1980 Recalls ↓
Problem: ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES, THE BOLTS USED TO ATTACH THE FRONT SUSPENSION BALL JOINTS TO THE CONTROL ARMS MAY FAIL DUE TO A BOLT SECTION CRACK CONDITION. THE BALL JOINT MAY SEPARATE FROM THE ARM POSSIBLY AFFECTING VEHICLE DIRECTIONAL CONTROL. Recall Details - 1/28/1982
Problem: THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FUEL LINE HOSES INSTALLED ON CERTAIN VEHICLES WERE FABRICATED FROM A DEFECTIVE RUBBER COMPOUND. WHEN SUBJECTED TO CONTINUOUS HIGH UNDERHOOD TEMPERATURES, THESE HOSES MAY BECOME BRITTLE AND CRACK. Recall Details - 10/21/1980
Problem: THE HOOD SECONDARY LATCH ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY BE SUBJECT TO BINDING DUE TO VARIATIONS IN THE LATCH AND ITS MOUNTING BASE ASSEMBLY. A PROBLEM COULD OCCUR IF THE PRIMARY LATCH BECAME INOPERATIVE OR WAS NOT PROPERLY ENGAGED. Recall Details - 10/17/1980
1979 Recalls ↓
Problem: THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FUEL LINE HOSES INSTALLED ON CERTAIN VEHICLES WERE FABRICATED FROM A DEFECTIVE RUBBER COMPOUND. WHEN SUBJECTED TO CONTINUOUS HIGH UNDERHOOD TEMPERATURES, THESE HOSES MAY BECOME BRITTLE AND CRACK. Recall Details - 10/21/1980
Problem: THE WHEEL MOUNTING NUTS INSTALLED MAY BE INCORRECT DUE TO A SUPPLIER ERROR IN MIXING STANDARD THREAD NUTS WITH SPECIFIED METRIC THREAD NUTS PRIOR TO PLANT SHIPMENT. AS A RESULT, THE NUT THREADS MAY STRIP WHEN TIGHTENED TO THE SPECIFIED TORQUE LEVEL RANGE, WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR THE LOOSENING OF A ROAD WHEEL. Recall Details - 12/20/1978
Problem: THE ALTERNATOR FIELD WIRING TERMINAL CONNECTIONS ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY LOOSEN DUE TO VIBRATION, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN AN OPEN CIRCUIT CONDITION. SHOULD THIS OCCUR, ALTERNATOR ELECTRICAL OUTPUT TO SUPPORT THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL LOADS AND THE BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM WOULD BE LOST. THIS WOULD EVENTUALLY RESULT IN OBVIOUS MALFUNCTIONS OF VARIOUS ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS (DIMMING OF LIGHTS, REDUCTION IN RADIO VOLUME, ETC.). Recall Details - 10/15/1980
1978 Recalls ↓
Problem: THE LOWER STEERING SHAFT COUPLING ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY HAVE AN OVERSIZED SERRATION DIAMETER IN THE ATTACHMENT AREA TO THE STEERING GEAR SHAFT. SINCE THIS OVERSIZED COUPLING MAY NOT BE ADEQUATELY ENGAGED ON THE STEERING GEAR SHAFT, THE ATTACHMENT MAY LOOSEN, RESULTING IN STEERING FREE PLAY. Recall Details - 9/18/1979
Problem: THE ALTERNATOR FIELD WIRING TERMINAL CONNECTIONS ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY LOOSEN DUE TO VIBRATION, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN AN OPEN CIRCUIT CONDITION. SHOULD THIS OCCUR, ALTERNATOR ELECTRICAL OUTPUT TO SUPPORT THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL LOADS AND THE BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM WOULD BE LOST. THIS WOULD EVENTUALLY RESULT IN OBVIOUS MALFUNCTIONS OF VARIOUS ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS (DIMMING OF LIGHTS, REDUCTION IN RADIO VOLUME, ETC.). Recall Details - 10/15/1980
Problem: ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES, THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FUEL TUBE MAY HAVE BEEN MISROUTED WHICH MAY ALLOW FOR TUBE ABRASION AND SUBSEQUENT UNDERHOOD FUEL LEAKAGE. Recall Details - 12/20/1977
Problem: ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES, THE LOWER CONTROL ARM MAY DEVELOP CRACKS. THESE CRACKS WILL REDUCE THE STRENGTH OF THE ARM. Recall Details - 12/20/1977
Problem: THE WHEEL HUB NUTS ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ADEQUATELY STAKED TO THE WHEEL SPINDLE. AS A RESULT, THE STAKED NUTS MAY LOOSEN WITH LOSS OF CLAMPING LOAD ON THE FRONT WHEEL BEARING AND LOOSENING OF FRONT WHEELS. Recall Details - 12/28/1977
Problem: THE FUEL TANKS ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY EXHIBIT FUEL LEAKAGE WHEN COMPLETELY FILLED. THIS CONDITION WAS CAUSED BY THE REAR FLOOR CARPET FASTENERS PENETRATING THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK. Recall Details - 2/8/1978
Problem: THE RIVET ATTACHMENTS FOR THE FRONT SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM TO BALL JOINT MAY FAIL, ESPECIALLY UNDER IMPACT LOAD CIRCUMSTANCES. Recall Details - 5/9/1978
Problem: THE PRESENT POSITION OF THE FUEL HOSE MAY ALLOW IT TO CHAFE AGAINST THE AIR CONDITIONING SUCTION HOSE. EXCESSIVE CHAFING COULD RESULT IN FUEL LEAKAGE. Recall Details - 6/13/1978
