- The problem
- The abs hydraulic control unit can experience excessive brake actuator piston seal wear causing pump-motor deterioration.
- The risk
- 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.
- The fix
- 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.

1992 Dodge Monaco recalls 3
Recall repairs are free. Your dealer fixes them whether or not you bought the car there - check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if yours is done. What to do
- The problem
- The automatic shoulder belt systems can malfunction and become inoperative.
- The risk
- The lack of passive restraints could increase the risk of personal injury in the event of a vehicle collision.
- The fix
- Dealers will replace the system track and drive assembly on automatic shoulder belt systems which are currently inoperative and those systems when they become inoperative in the future.
- The problem
- The end cap connecting the heat exchanger's core to the engine cooling system could rupture and allow hot coolant to escape into the passenger compartment.
- The risk
- The coolant escaping into the passenger compartment could contact the driver's feet and injure the driver. Also, steam from the heater liquid will cloud on the window surfaces and impair the driver's vision. In either case, failure of the heater core end cap could result in a vehicle accident.
- The fix
- A coolant temperature controlled heater core fluid bypass valve will be installed.
