All Dodge Mirada recalls (5)

Every NHTSA safety campaign that lists a Dodge Mirada, most recent first, with the model years each one covers.

  1. Vehicle speed control

    NHTSA 81V111000 Reported 150,000 vehicles potentially affected CHRYSLER CORPORATION

    The automatic speed control switch may stick in the "resume" position restricting return movement. This will not allow the normal brake pedal operation to deactivate the system.

    Remedy: The shield portion of the "resume" slide lever in the speed control unit will be replaced without charge.

    Model years: 1981, 1982

  2. Carburetor system (fuel system)

    NHTSA 81V055000 Reported 30,000 vehicles potentially affected CHRYSLER CORPORATION

    Engine may lose power or stall due to carburetor flooding. This is caused by a poor electrical ground on the carburetor fuel bowl vent solenoid. Vehicles may also have driveability problems while the engine is warming up in cold weather. These problems include engine missing, sags, and hesitation. This is caused by a sticking carburetor…

    Remedy: Dealer will inspect carburetor and if necessary, the bowl vent solenoid will be repaired by resoldering (reconnecting) the external electrical connection free of charge. If applicable, the oxygen feedback sensor will…

    Model years: 1981

  3. Exterior lighting

    NHTSA 80V051000 Reported 29 vehicles potentially affected CHRYSLER CORPORATION

    Vehicles may not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices and associated equipment". On certain vehicles, the front park and turn signal lamps may contain incorrect lamp bulb socket assemblies. Engineering testing determined that these lamps do not produce a sufficient amount of light.

    Remedy: Dealers will replace turn and park lamp bulb socket assemblies with the correct assemblies free of charge.

    Model years: 1980

  4. Springs (vehicle speed control)

    NHTSA 79V233000 Reported 7,000 vehicles potentially affected CHRYSLER CORPORATION

    Increased friction experienced in operation or servicing of the system may result in a total friction level exceeding the force capability of the throttle return springs. This may prevent the throttle from returning properly to a closed position when the accelerator pedal is released.

    Remedy: Dealer will inspect and, if necessary, install return springs which will perform correctly, at no charge to owner.

    Model years: 1980

  5. Structure

    NHTSA 79V232000 Reported 4,000 vehicles potentially affected CHRYSLER CORPORATION

    The defect involves the potential for exhaust gas (containing carbon monoxide) entry into the passenger compartment which can occur as a result of improperly retained plastic sealing plugs in the rear quarter panel/trunk area of the vehicle. Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas which in sufficient quantity and exposure time is potentially…

    Remedy: Dealer will install improved quarter panel sealing plugs without charge to owner.

    Model years: 1980
