Recall history
3 distinct campaigns affect this selection. Announcement dates below are different from vehicle model years. A campaign may cover multiple years.
77V140000 · Power Train:Automatic Transmission:Lever And Linkage:Column Shift
Reported: 1977-09-13 (September 13, 1977) · Model years: 1977
THE INVOLVED VEHICLES WERE FITTED WITH TILT STEERING COLUMNS CONTAINING TRANSMISSION CONTROL INSERTS INTENDED FOR TRUCKS RATHER THAN PASSENGER VEHICLES. THIS MAY CAUSE THE TRANSMISSION SELECTOR POINTER TO BE MISALIGNED AND THE POSSIBILITY OF STARTING THE ENGINE WHEN THE SELECTOR IS BETWEEN THE NEUTRAL (N) AND DRIVE (D) DETENTS AND THE TRANSMISSION IS IN DRIVE.
Remedy: DEALER WILL INSPECT AND, IF NECESSARY, REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CONTROL INSERT, WITHOUT CHARGE TO OWNER.
NHTSA campaign record ↗77V210000 · Vehicle Speed Control
Reported: 1977-11-25 (November 25, 1977) · Model years: 1978
THE ELECTRONIC ENGINE CONTROL (EEC) WIRING HARNESS MAY BE MISROUTED. THIS MISROUTING MAY CAUSE THE SPEED CONTROL SERVO ARM TO BE HELD OPEN DUE TO MECHANICAL INTERFERENCE WHEN THE SPEED CONTROL IS ENGAGED. THIS CAUSES A PARTIALLY OPEN THROTTLE CONDITION THAT CANNOT BE CANCELLED BY DRIVER ACTIONS NORMALLY USED TO SHUT OFF THE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM.
Remedy: DEALER WILL INSPECT AND WILL CORRECT THE ROUTING OF THE SPEED CONTROL WIRING HARNESS, IF NECESSARY, WITHOUT CHARGE TO OWNER.
NHTSA campaign record ↗79V117000 · Service Brakes, Hydraulic:Pedals And Linkages
