Recall History (3 recalls)

77V037000Apr 1977

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE

THE REQUIRED MUFFLER TO FLOOR PAN HEAT SHIELDS WERE OMITTED FROM THE INVOLVED VEHICLES. THESE HEAT SHIELDS ARE NECESSARY TO PROTECT THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT INTERIOR MATERIALS, INCLUDING SEAT BELT WEBBING, FROM HEAT DAMAGE.

77V131000Sep 1977

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

THE PLASTIC TRANSMISSION SHIFT LINKAGE BUSHINGS INSTALLED ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY BECOME HEAT DAMAGED BECAUSE THEY ARE LOCATED NEAR THE MINI-CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THIS CONDITION COULD ALTER THE ADJUSTED RELATIONSHIP OF THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT LINKAGE, CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO BE IN A GEAR POSITION OTHER THAN THAT INDICATED BY THE GEAR SHIFT SELECTOR.

78V020000Mar 1978

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:CARBURETOR SYSTEM

WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES IS DEPRESSED AND THE ACCELERATOR PUMP IS ACTIVATED, A DISTORTED ACCELERATOR PUMP SEAL IN THE CARBURETOR MAY PREVENT THE PUMP FROM DELIVERING THE PROPER AMOUNT OF FUEL.
