NHTSA Recall History
1992: Intermediate shaft to steering-rack lower-coupling pinch bolt may be missing on some cars; disengagement produces loss of steering control.
1993 w/4.6-liter engine: Fuel feed and return lines to fuel-injection system could work loose, causing fuel leakage in engine compartment that could result in fire.
1993-94 w/4.6-liter V8: If air conditioner compressor-clutch assembly contacts auxiliary engine oil-cooler hose, that hose may wear through, allowing leakage that could result in fire.
1994: Throttle cable can disengage and interfere with cam mechanism.
1995: Inadvertent airbag deployment could occur, due to water intrusion.
1995-97: The fuel line tubing on certain vehicles may crack causing fuel leakage. Dealers will inspect and replace affected parts.
1996: Analog instrument cluster on some cars could have internal short circuit disrupting Pass-Key system, causing failure of gauges and most telltale indicators, and possible no-start condition; panel could go black while driving.
1997: Brake/traction-control module can cause antilock system to cycle in non-ABS braking; could increase stopping distance.
1998: Misrouted canister purge evaporative emissions harness could interfere with cruise control and throttle linkage, preventing return to closed throttle position.
2000: Inner tie-rod nuts on some cars are loose and can result in separation of tie rod, which can cause unexpected steering input.
