All recalls

Structure: body: hatchback/liftgate: hinge and attachmentsReported September 2, 1999 · 1,318,189 vehicles affected

What is wrong: Vehicle description: mini vans. The bolts used to attach the strut to the body and the rear liftgate can accumulate fatigue damage if three factors combine.

Risk: Personal injury could occur if the bolts break allowing the liftgate to fall suddenly.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect for loose fasteners, if the fasteners are loose, the strut (and integral bolts) will be replaced. If the bolt shows evidence of torque, the bolt will be removed, larger washers will replace the existing washer and the bolt will be reinstalled and hand tightened to the target torqued.
