-
Carburetor system (fuel system)
When the accelerator pedal on the involved vehicles is depressed and the accelerator pump is activated, a distorted accelerator pump seal in the carburetor may prevent the pump from delivering the proper amount of fuel.
Remedy: Dealer will replace the carburetor accelerator pump seal with a seal of improved distortion resistance. The carburetor will also be checked for the proper float level.
-
Automatic transmission (power train)
The plastic transmission shift linkage bushings installed on the involved vehicles may become heat damaged because they are located near the MINI-catalytic converter. This condition could alter the adjusted relationship of the transmission shift linkage, causing the transmission to be in a gear position other than that indicated by the…
Remedy: Dealer will replace the plastic bushings with steel bushings and install retaining clips to ensure that shift rod is securely engaged to the linkage system.
-
Manifold/header/muffler/tail pipe (engine and engine cooling)
The required muffler to floor pan heat shields were omitted from the involved vehicles. These heat shields are necessary to protect the passenger compartment interior materials, including seat belt webbing, from heat damage.

Checking a specific 1977 Plymouth Fury
How do I know if my 1977 Plymouth Fury has an open recall?
Enter your 17-character VIN above. The VIN is on the driver's side dashboard (visible through the windshield), the driver's door jamb sticker, and your registration or insurance card. The check runs against NHTSA's live database and tells you which campaigns list your vehicle. 3 campaigns currently list the 1977 Plymouth Fury; your car may already have been repaired under some of them.
Is the recall repair free?
Yes. Under federal law, manufacturers must fix safety recalls at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from the date of sale to the first owner. Contact any authorised Plymouth dealer with your VIN and the NHTSA campaign number (for example 77V037000).
What is the difference between a recall and a complaint?
A recall is a safety campaign filed by the manufacturer or ordered by NHTSA, with a defined defect and remedy. A complaint is a report an owner sent to NHTSA; it is not verified, but patterns of complaints are what trigger NHTSA investigations and, eventually, recalls.
