On certain vehicles, there is a potential on high metrage vehicles for the steering wheel armature stamping to crack and separate from the center hub attachment of the steering wheel. This could result in loss of steering control and a possible crash. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected for armature cracks in the center hub attachment area. Steering wheels exhibiting cracks will be replaced. All other vehicles will have a reinforcement plate attached. - [1999145](/recalls/tc/1999145.md), 1999-07-30: Visual System. On certain vehicles, the left hand windshield wiper pivot drive arm was not mechanically staked to the pivot shaft. This may allow the drive arm to disengage from the shaft and lead to a loss of wiper function. Correction: The left windshield wiper pivot assembly will be replaced with one that incorporates an improved mechanical connection of the drive link to the pivot shaft. - [1997162](/recalls/tc/1997162.md), 1997-09-29: Seats And Restraints. The first row rear seat outboard side seat belt anchor hook can become unattached from the body anchor position. Also, the covers on solid stalk mounted seat belt buckles may become dislodged. Should a cover become dislodged, the release button may stick inside the cover creating the potential for the buckle to become partially latched. In the event of a vehicle crash, either of these conditions could result in the occupant not being properly restrained. Correction: Anchor hook retaining clip will be replace with a revised profile clip and cover plate. Dealers will also install a cover retaining clip to the stalk mounted buckle cover to prevent dislocation of the buckle cover. - [1997104](/recalls/tc/1997104.md), 1997-05-28: Structure. A combination of no bolt torque, high pressure in the strut and a severe duty cycle can create the potential for the liftgate strut attaching bolts to separate. This could result in injury to persons standing under the liftgate at the time of failure. Correction: Liftgate struts will be inspected for loose fasteners. If fasteners are loose, the strut \(and integral bolts\) will be replaced. If the bolt shows evidence of torque, the bolt will be removed, large washers will be installed and bolt will be torqued to specification. - [1996063](/recalls/tc/1996063.md), 1996-04-29: Brakes. Note: Vehicles equipped with Bendix\-10 Antilock Brake System \(ABS\) Vehicles with ABS brakes may experience premature actuator piston seal wear in the ABS hydraulic control unit and/or actuator pump motor deterioration. If this occurs, the ABS function may be lost and reduced power assist may be experienced during vehicle braking. Correction: Vehicles with ABS malfunction will be repaired as necessary. Warranty on all ABS components will be extended to 10 years or 160,000 km \(except for the brake actuator piston assembly and the pump\-motor assembly which will have lifetime coverage\). - [1993086](/recalls/tc/1993086.md), 1993-06-08: Suspension. VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 15" STAMPED ROAD WHEELS OR SPARE WHEEL MAY HAVE A MISFORMED WHEEL LUG NUT SEAT CONFIGURATION. THIS COULD CAUSE A REDUCED NUT TO WHEEL CONTACT AREA AND LIMIT THE WHEEL SELF CENTERING CAPABILITY DURING INSTALLATION. THIS COULD RESULT IN LOOSENING OF THE WHEEL LUG NUTS AND POSSIBLE WHEEL LOSS. CORRECTION: SUSPECT WHEELS WILL BE REPLACED AND INSTALLED WITH NEW LUG NUTS. ## Check a VIN - [NHTSA recall lookup by VIN, United States](https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls) - [Transport Canada recall search, Canada](https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng) Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada.
