1977 Dodge W100 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 fuel tubes (fuel tank to pump) on the involved vehicles may be routed such that tube to underbody reinforcement flange interference may result during vehicle operation. Tube abrasion caused by such interference may result in fuel leakage.
- The fix
- Dealer will reroute the fuel tube or install a new fuel tube, if damaged, without charge to owner.
- The problem
- The front driving axle wheel hubs on the involved vehicles may fail due to improperly machined spindles. This error may prevent the wheel hub and bearing from seating properly, causing bearing failure and eventual hub fracture. Also, the front wheel could detach due to hub fracture.
- The fix
- The dealer will inspect and, if necessary, install a new front axle assembly, without charge to owner.
