NHTSA Recall History
1997-04 w/second-row bucket seats or captainÕs chairs and power sliding passenger door:
If someone holds onto the sliding-door handle while it's being opened by the motor, that person's arm may be pushed into the seatback or armrest, possibly resulting in injury to wrist or lower arm.
1997-2001 w/passenger-side sliding door:
Door closes but may not be latched. If this happens, the sliding door can open while the vehicle is in motion.
1997-98 w/bucket seats or split bench seat in second or third row:
Seat-latch mechanism does not have protective covers; when activating release mechanism to roll a bucket seat forward, finger(s) could be severely injured, or severed, if they are not kept clear.
1997-98:
Windshield-wiper linkage arm can contact brake line connected to traction-control modulator valve; brake line can chafe, resulting in brake-fluid leakage.
1998:
Broken shift-cable fitting or loose shift linkage can occur; moving shift lever to "Park" position may not shift the transmission to "Park," and vehicle could roll.
1999:
Steering shaft on a few minivans could separate, as a result of collapsed sleeve.
2000 w/extended wheelbase:
Fuel-tank rollover valve on small number of minivans is inoperative.
2000:
Some seatbelt assemblies were not properly heat treated and do not pass the load-bearing requirement.
2001:
Seat-latch anchor-wire diameter may be wider than 6.1 mm, potentially inhibiting the installation of child restraints.
2002:
Driver's-side airbag inflator could fracture during deployment increasing the risk of serious injury.
