-
Suspension: front
The two rearward front suspension frame mounting brackets can fracture.
Remedy: Install a reinforcing bracket which "gloves" each of the two rearward brackets of the front suspension.
-
Latch (latches/locks/linkages)
The primary hood latch can release when vehicle is driven in the condition of high wind gusts. The primary hood latch failure will also cause the secondary hood latch to fail simultaneously.
Remedy: Replace defective primary and secondary latch mechanisms with a larger spring on the primary latch, and a redesigned catch on the secondary latch.
Model years: 1990, 1991
-
Mounting (fuel system)
Fuel tank mounting straps may allow minor amount of shifting by fuel tank in a rear end crash with fuel leakage in excess of amount allowed by standard.
Remedy: Retrofit vehicles with fuel mounting straps of original design.
-
Suspension: rear
Welded connection between the axle trailing arm and the inner transverse axle bar could fail.
Remedy: Install a redesigned rear axle and realign rear wheels.
-
Filler pipe and cap (fuel system)
Seal between fuel fill tube and fuel tank may allow a slow gasoline leak.
Remedy: Install a redesigned fill tube with a longer tube length, to be inserted farther into the tank, which will assure a positive seal between tube and fuel tank.
