Engine and engine cooling: fan

80V144000Nov 7, 1980209,100 vehicles affected

The problem: Some of the flexible five-blade engine cooling fans may be subject to high blade stresses that can result from resonant vibration inputs occurring during normal vehicle operation. This can lead to fatigue cracking of the blades. Portions of the blade may separate from the fan assembly without prior warning.
The fix: Dealer will replace fan with an improved five-bladed version without charge to owner.
