Seats
- What is wrong
- Vehicle description: extended cab and 2-door utility vehicles equipped with reclining seats and the easy-entry feature. These vehicles exhibit a condition in which a pinch point exists in the recliner mechanism that can trap and pinch a person's hand or finger(s) when the easy-entry feature is activated.
- Risk
- This pinching can cut the hand or possibly sever the finger(s) without prior warning.
- Remedy
- Dealers will install a protector cover over the recliner mechanism.
Recall number 97V037000 · Recall details
Vehicle speed control
- What is wrong
- These vehicles were assembled with the throttle cable contacting the dash mat which could bind the throttle. This does not meet with the maximum return times required by federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 124, "accelerator control systems."
- Risk
- Consequence of non-compliance: the engine speed may not return to idle increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect for adequate throttle cable to dash mat clearance, and if there is insufficient clearance, cut out a portion of the dash mat to provide proper clearance.
Recall number 96V057000 · Recall details
Steering: steering wheel/handle bar
- What is wrong
- The steering column upper intermediate-shaft nut may not be torqued to proper specifications. The nut could loosen and detach allowing the through-bolt that secures the upper intermediate-shaft to the lower steering column shaft joint to fall out.
- Risk
- This loose engagement can provide noticeable noise and abnormal steering feeling to the driver and, if left unattended, the steering shafts can separate resulting in a loss of steering control.
- Remedy
- Dealers will torque the suspect fasteners to the proper specifications.
Recall number 96V004000 · Recall details
Seat belts: front
- What is wrong
- If both the lap-belt and shoulder-belt energy management loops on the front seat belt assemblies release at or near the same time, acceleration forces can cause the buckle release mechanism to activate and allow the buckle to separate from the latch.
- Risk
- If the buckle released, the system would fail to provide adequate occupant restraint protection.
- Remedy
- Dealers will remove the stitching that creates the energy management loop in the shoulder belt(s).
Recall number 95V241000 · Recall details
Seat belts: front
- What is wrong
- These vehicles were built with front seat belt systems with no energy management loops and may not meet the head injury criteria requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash protection."
- Risk
- In the event of a vehicle crash, the occupants of these seats may not be properly restrained.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the retractor portion of the seat belt assembly(s) with one having the newly designed energy-management twin-loop system.
Recall number 95V242000 · Recall details
Power train: automatic transmission: cooling unit and lines
- What is wrong
- Due to a thin case casting, an external transmission leak can occur.
- Risk
- This condition can cause transmission oil to sprayonto the exhaust system and result in a possible vehicle fire.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the transmission case assembly for the involved case casting. If the assembly is involved, the transmission will be replaced.
