AI groups complaints by meaning; the groups are approximate. Share ratio compares the problem’s share of this vehicle’s complaints with its share on other vehicles over the last 24 months (shown from 3 recent complaints). A 2× ratio means twice the complaint share, not twice the failure risk. Flags mark unusual shares or recent surges after an AI review of the complaint content. “First signal” does not mean the pattern has persisted continuously.How recall estimates are calculated.

Recalls

  • NHTSA recall #94V077000April 25, 1994232,988 vehicles affected

    fuel system, gasoline: storage: tank assembly: filler pipe and cap

    The fuel filler neck solder joint Can develop cracks or pin hole leaks, which does not comply with FMVSS no. 301, "fuel system integrity." the cracks and holes Can allow fuel vapor and fuel leakage.

    Consequence of non-compliance: gasoline vapors and fuel leaks Can result in a fire if exposed to a source of ignition.

    Remedy

    Dealers will inspect the fuel tank assembly and replace those which exhibit the cracks or pin hole leaks.

  • NHTSA recall #91V074000May 3, 1991173 vehicles affected

    seats: front assembly: recliner

    The front seat upper hinge cover screws are too long, and interfere with the seat back inertia lock. This prevents the seat back from locking properly.

    In the event of a sudden stop or vehicle impact, anunlocked seat back would increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant.

    Remedy

    Replace screws securing upper hinge trim cover with correct length screws.

  • NHTSA recall #91V067000April 22, 199140,696 vehicles affected

    seat belts: front: anchorage

    The metal latchplates may not engage the buckle assemblies, causing a "no latch" condition. Movement of the seat occupant in this condition could cause latchplate release from the buckle.

    Unbelted or incorrectly belted seat occupants aresubjected to increased risk of injury in the event of sudden stop or accident.

    Remedy

    Replace the retractor assembly for the safety belt (front and rear in coupes and front only in convertibles).

  • NHTSA recall #91V031000February 19, 199121 vehicles affected

    visibility: windshield

    Poor bond adhesion between the windshield glass and the mounting, which could allow the windshield to separate from the vehicle during a collision. This fails to conform with FMVSS 212.

    If windshield separation occurs in a collision, anunbelted occupant could be ejected from the vehicle, and personal injury couldoccur.

    Remedy

    Remove all sealer from windshield and mounting; apply new bonding and sealant material, and reinstall windshield.
