CampaignReportedPartProblemVehicles
93V-129 August 2, 1993 Service brakes, hydraulic (foundation components, hoses, lines/piping, and fittings) An engine preheating tube may not be properly supported due to a missing support bracket, causing the preheating tube to chafe against the right front metal brake line. This can damage the hydraulic line, causing brake fluid leakage and diminished braking in one brake circuit. 76,000
92V-050 April 14, 1992 Visibility (defroster/defogger/hvac system, heater core) 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. 650,000
92V-058 April 14, 1992 Fuel system, gasoline (delivery, hoses, lines/piping, and fittings) The fuel hose attached to the fuel distribution rail on the engine may shrink beyond the clamp force of the fuel hose clamps, allowing fuel to leak. 358,000
90V-142 August 6, 1990 Service brakes, hydraulic (foundation components, disc, caliper) Omission of air ducts intended to guide flow of cooling air to left and right front brake calipers could allow brake fluid to exceed allowable operating temperature under certain operating conditions. 11,000
