NHTSA Recall History
2001:
Fuel supply line could contact the air-conditioning tube service port, causing a fuel leak which would increase the risk of fire.
2001:
Some of the owner's manuals for these vehicles are missing instructions for properly attaching a child-restraint system's tether strap to the tether anchorage.
2001:
The right rear seat center lower anchor was manufactured with a wire diameter greater than the maximum specified. If child-seat connectors are not properly secured, the occupant will not be fully restrained.
2001-02:
The fuel-pump-module mounting flange could leak fuel in a rollover crash, increasing the risk of vehicle fire.
2001-05:
w/2.4-liter non-turbo engine: Power steering hose may contact automatic-transmission differential cover, potentially damaging the hose and causing fluid leakage that could result in underhood fire.
2002:
A software error in the instrument-cluster microprocessor may render gauges, illumination, and warning lights inoperative.
2003 manual transmission:
Faulty flywheel and clutch assemblies were installed in some vehicles with manual transmissions, possibly leading to a disengaged clutch. Dealer will inspect and replace affected part.
2005:
w/ABS, high-output turbo engine and manual gearbox: Contact between brake tube and transaxle housing over extended time period may eventually lead to perforation of brake tube, which could result in loss of braking force in left front/right rear circuit.
2005-06:
The rear quarter glass attaching fasteners may pull through their mounts and allow the glass to separate from the vehicle. Dealers will replace the rear quarter glass.
