  1. Filler pipe and cap (fuel system)

    NHTSA 83V085000 Reported 215 vehicles potentially affected GENERAL MOTORS CORP.

    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".

    Remedy: A new fuel filler hose will be installed by dealer on all involved vehicles.

    Model years: 1982

  2. Axle shaft (power train)

    NHTSA 82V081000 Reported 8,881 vehicles potentially affected GENERAL MOTORS CORP.

    The rear axle shafts received improper heat treatment during manufacture. The shaft may break and the tire and wheel assembly could disengage from the vehicle.

    Model years: 1982

  3. Seats

    NHTSA 77V216000 Reported 351 vehicles potentially affected GENERAL MOTORS CORP.

    The involved vehicles fail to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 207, "anchorage of seats", due to possible failure of the seat post attachment at the floor in the event of an accident. These vehicles have oversized bolt holes in the floor pan which may allow the seat attaching nuts to pass through them and thus…

    Remedy: Dealer will install a steel reinforcement plate on the bottom surface of the longitudinal sill, at no cost to owner.

    Model years: 1977

  4. Suspension: lower arm

    NHTSA 77V098000 Reported 107,584 vehicles potentially affected GENERAL MOTORS CORP.

    The front suspension control arms were assembled with ball joints which may contain sockets that were not properly heat-treated. This may cause the socket to wear rapidly and allow the ball joint stud to separate from the socket, causing either the left or right wheel suspension to collapse.

    Remedy: Dealer will inspect and, where necessary, will replace the ball joints without charge to owner.

    Model years: 1975, 1976
