NHTSA Recall History

1993: Brake master cylinder on some vans was improperly assembled or could have been damaged during assembly, which can result in loss of braking at two wheels, causing increased pedal travel, higher pedal effort, and increased stopping distance.
1993: Fuel-filler hoses may have been cut prior to installation by knife used to open shipping box; fuel leakage could result, leading to fire if exposed to ignition source.
1993: Leaves and other foreign matter can enter through cowl-panel air intake during operation of front heater and/or air conditioner, resulting in buildup in the plenum that can lead to noise, odors, or even a vehicle fire.
1993: One or both bolts securing automatic seatbelt-restraint system tracks to B-pillars were not adequately tightened on some vans, increasing risk of injury in the event of a collision or sudden maneuver.
1995 w/sliding third-row bench seats: Cable that connects seat-adjustment level to latch might be pinched in roller assembly, preventing latch on left side from fully engaging seat rail.
1995: Rear lamp will not illuminate if the metal socket moves or separates from the plastic socket housing. This can result in failure of the stop or rear running lamps.
1996: Power windows can be closed after ignition key is turned to "off" position and right front door is opened.
1997: Fuel-line hoses could crack or split, resulting in leakage.
1997-98 w/battery supplied by GNB Technologies: Defective negative battery post can cause acid leakage and related corrosion damage; could lead to engine fire or battery explosion.
1998: Cracks have developed in the vent hose, allowing a fuel leak.
