NHTSA Recall History
1994:
Electronic-speedometer sensor can seize, causing speedometer and cruise control (if equipped) to stop functioning.
1998-99:
A valve on the fuel-filler assembly could cause fuel shut-off before the tank reaches 95 percent of capacity.
1998-99:
Ball socket on windshield-wiper link may be out of tolerance, resulting in link disengaging under load. Also, wiper-arm retaining nut could be inadequately tightened.
1998-99:
If exposed to moisture, two connectors could corrode; over time, fuel pump will not receive enough current to operate, causing engine to stall.
1998-99:
If pin tension in fuel pump's ground connector is poor, or bolt securing connector to floor is not tightened sufficiently, poor connection as pump operates can create heat, which in turn increases resistance. Eventually, the pump may fail to operate, causing engine to stall.
1999-00:
Front seat belt buckles may emit clicking sound during buckle-up process, even if it is not being latched.
