Latest vehicle recalls

Vehicles may have fuel or vapor line damage caused when an incorrect procedure was used in tightening bolts on adjacent components during assembly. The fuel tank may become damaged due to a loose cross member that supports it.

Fuel tank may overflow and leak if filled to or past its normal maximum capacity. Excess fuel would escape through the air vent on the tank.

The wiper blade may extend too far and catch on the radio antenna bracket. The connection of the wiper arm and the pivot could be damaged. The condition is caused by an incorrect setting of the wiper arm height above the pivot.

The rear seat belts do not include emergency-locking or automatic-locking retractors. The belts do not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 208, "Occupant crash protection".

Excessive heat may be transferred to the vehicle floor pan in the rear seat area. This occurs because the muffler heat shield was omitted during manufacture of certain fleet cars. Rear seat cushions may be scorched by heat.

Inadequate clearance between the underside of the hood and the throttle linkage could damage the linkage and prevent the throttle from returning to idle position. This condition is due to installation of the incorrect hood style during vehicle assembly.

The right front crossover pipe, which carries brake hydraulic fluid, may break and leak fluid. This occurs when the right front fender skirt contacts the pipe and vibration causes the pipe to wear through.

The master cylinder rear brake pipe, which carries brake fluid to the rear brakes, may develop a leak due to extended chafing on the air cleaner resonator bracket.

The brake proportioner valves may break and separate from the master cylinder. This would allow brake fluid to leak and would result in a partial loss of the brake system.

Under severe strain, a defective weld joining the steering wheel hub to the hub perimeter could fail, causing the steering wheel to separate from the vehicle.

Certain vehicles were assembled with an insufficient height differential between the accelerator and brake pedals.

Fuel supply tubes installed in the affected vehicles are too short. Consequently, flexible hoses that attach to the tubes may be taut and this would have an adverse effect on the durability of hose connections. In the event of hose separation, some fuel...

The involved vehicles were assembled with bolts of an incorrect size for attachment of the front engine mounts to the engine. The engine mount bolts will loosen and eventually fall off and the engine may come off its front engine mounts. This could result in...

Parking brake cables contain incorrect springs. These springs fail to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 105, "Hydraulic brake systems".

Handlebar tube and handlebar arm do not fit securely because the inside diameter of the handlebar tube is incorrect. This causes stress to bear directly on a pin.

The pinch bolt installed on the steering gear component is of a smaller size than specified.

In a vehicle impact from the rear, the three piece hoses could separate and result in fuel leakage in excess of the amount permitted by federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 301, "Fuel system integrity".

Platform trailer hitches were produced from other than pure steel. Consequently, the hitch will not withstand normal stresses.

The insulation of the battery cable, because of its position, rubs against some of the engine wiring components. Once the insulation is worn through, the battery could rapidly discharge.

Air conditioning and heating duct hoses could chafe and expose the wire reinforcement. The exposed wire may come in contact with one of the electrical connectors and short out.
