Model year record
4 recall campaigns on file for this model year. No owner complaints on file.
THE STEERING PITMAN ARM COULD DEVELOP CRACKS AND EVENTUALLY FRACTURE DUE TO HIGH BENDING LOADS. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: SUCH A FRACTURE COULD CAUSE A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.
REPLACE PITMAN ARM WITH A REDESIGNED STRENGTHENED ARM.
THE STEERING ARM MAY CRACK OR BREAK IN EITHER LOW SPEED OR STAND STILL MANEUVERS. CRACKING MAY OCCUR AS A RESULT OF REPEATED FULL LOCK TURNS.
THE EXISTING STEERING ARM WILL BE REPLACED WITH A REDESIGNED AND STRENGTHENED ARM.
THE HYDROVAC CANISTERS WERE MODIFIED AND DO NOT WORK WELL WITH THE REST OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM. MORE PEDAL EFFORT IS NEEDED IN ORDER TO BRING VEHICLE TO A HALT AND THE MAXIMUM STOPPING DISTANCE IS INCREASED.
UPON INSPECTION, HYDROVAC CANISTERS WITH IMPROVED BRAKING CHARACTERISTICS WILL BE INSTALLED.
THE 3/4 INCH DIAMETER FASTENERS WHICH JOIN THE REAR AXLE BRAKE DRUM TO THE WHEELS WERE NOT TIGHTENED PROPERLY. THESE FASTENERS MAY LOOSEN DURING VEHICLE OPERATION, CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE DRUM AND BRAKES OF THE WHEEL.
THE DEALER WILL INSPECT AND RETIGHTEN FASTENERS TO SPECIFIED LEVEL AND REPLACE DAMAGED COMPONENTS, IF NECESSARY.
