Recalls to check

  • Recall #99V213000Vehicle description: mini vans. The bolts used to attach the strut to the body and the rear liftgate can accumulate fatigue damage if three factors combine. If the bolt is loose, the gas strut is over-pressurized, and the frequency of opening and closing cycles is higher than for the average customer, the bolt can fail.

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 #99V213000September 2, 19991,318,189 vehicles affected

    structure: body: hatchback/liftgate: hinge and attachments

    Vehicle description: mini vans. The bolts used to attach the strut to the body and the rear liftgate Can accumulate fatigue damage if three factors combine. If the bolt is loose, the gas strut is over-pressurized, and the frequency of opening and closing cycles is higher than for the average customer, the bolt Can fail.

    Personal injury could occur if the bolts break allowing the liftgate to fall suddenly.

    Remedy

    Dealers will inspect for loose fasteners, if the fasteners are loose, the strut (and integral bolts) will be replaced. If the bolt shows evidence of torque, the bolt will be removed, larger washers will replace the existing washer and the bolt will be reinstalled and hand tightened to the target torqued.

  • NHTSA recall #99V189000July 16, 1999828,559 vehicles affected

    visibility: windshield wiper/washer: linkages

    Vehicle description: minivans. The left hand windshield wiper pivot drive arm was not mechanically staked to the pivot shaft.

    This could allow the drive arm to disengage from the shaft leading to a loss of wiper function. The driver's visibility would be impaired, increasing the risk of a crash.

    Remedy

    Dealers will replace the left hand side windshield wiper pivot assembly.

  • NHTSA recall #97V148000September 9, 19971,100,000 vehicles affected

    seat belts: front: buckle assembly

    Vehicle description: passenger mini-vans. Covers on the solid stalk mounted seat belt buckles Can become dislodged causing the release button to stick inside the cover. The buckle would then be only partially latched.

    In the event of a vehicle crash, the occupant may not be properly restrained increasing the risk of personal injury.

    Remedy

    Dealers will install a cover retaining clip to the stalk mounted buckle cover to prevent dislocation of the buckle cover.

  • NHTSA recall #97V149000September 9, 19971,100,000 vehicles affected

    seat belts: front: anchorage

    Vehicle description: passenger mini-vans. The center rear seat, right outboard side, safety belt anchor hook Can become unattached from the body anchor position.

    In the event of a vehicle crash, the occupant may not be properly restrained increasing the risk of personal injury.

    Remedy

    Dealers will replace the anchor hook retaining clip with a revised profile clip and a cover plate.

  • NHTSA recall #96V229000November 18, 1996675,000 vehicles affected

    steering: steering wheel/handle bar

    The steering wheel armature stamping Can crack and separate from the center hub attachment to the steering column.

    If the steering wheel separates from the center hub attachment to the steering column, loss of control Can occur increasing the risk of an accident.

    Remedy

    Dealers will inspect the steering wheel for armature cracks in the center hub attachment area. Any steering wheels showing cracks will be replaced. All other vehicles will have a reinforcement plate installed to prevent steering wheel separation in the event cracking occurs.

  • NHTSA recall #96V099000June 13, 1996321,000 vehicles affected

    service brakes, hydraulic: antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip

    The ABS hydraulic control unit Can experience excessive brake actuator piston seal wear causing pump-motor deterioration.

    If this condition occurs, the ABS function could be lost and reduced power assist would be experienced during vehicle braking increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.

    Remedy

    Dealers will test the vehicle's anti-lock brake system and repair the vehicles if necessary. Also the warranty on all ABS components will be extended to 10 years or 100,000 miles (except for the brake actuator piston assembly and the pump-motor assembly which will have a lifetime coverage). Owners will also be reimbursed for previous ABS component repair costs.

  • NHTSA recall #92V030000March 10, 199210,492 vehicles affected

    service brakes, hydraulic: foundation components: hoses, lines/piping, and fittings

    The anti-lock brake system high pressure pump may be porous which will result in brake fluid leakage.

    Fluid leakage eventually causes the loss of both theanti-lock brake system and hydraulic assist for the brake system, resulting inincreased likelihood of brake lockup and increased stopping distances, whichcould result in a vehicle accident.

    Remedy

    Replace the ABS high pressure pump and high pressure hose if the last six digits of the bar code label on the pump are between 052300 and 059262.

  • NHTSA recall #91V191000November 1, 199180,000 vehicles affected

    service brakes, hydraulic: foundation components: hoses, lines/piping, and fittings

    The anti-lock brake system high pressure hose may leak or detach at its crimped end fitting resulting in the discharge of hydraulic fluid.

    Fluid discharge eventually causes the loss of both theanti-lock brake system and hydraulic assist for the brake system, resulting inincreased likelihood of brake lockup and increased stopping distances, whichcould result in a vehicle accident.

    Remedy

    Replace the ABS high pressure hose with a hose of different design and construction.
