Transmission & drivetrain Vehicle recall #95V026000 · 1995 · 13,853 vehicles

What's wrong: Due to a thin case casting, an external transmission leak can occur.

Why it matters: This condition can cause transmission oil to sprayonto the exhaust system and result in a possible vehicle fire.

The fix: Dealers will inspect the transmission case assembly for the involved case casting. If the assembly is involved, the transmission will be replaced.

Tires Vehicle recall #96V117000 · 1996 · 5,773 vehicles

What's wrong: These tires have bead damage which occured during tire mounting.

Why it matters: This damage to the tire reinforcing structure in the bead "toe" area causes a bulge in the sidewall after the tire is inflated. This condition will result in a slow air loss causing the tire to go flat. However, it is possible for the damage to result in a rapid air loss causing injuries to anyone…

The fix: Dealers will demount each tire and inspect for bead damage. If bead damage is found, the tire will be replaced.
