Has your Plymouth been repaired?

Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.

NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Plymouth dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.

December 28, 1977NHTSA 77V2420001,300,000 vehicles potentially affected

Fuel system, gasoline › Carburetor system

Summary
On the involved vehicles, the carburetor accelerator pump seal can become distorted due to contact with certain types of gasoline. Normally, when the accelerator pedal is depressed, the accelerator pump is activated to provide additional gasoline required for acceleration. A distorted seal however, may prevent the pump from delivering the proper amount of fuel.
Remedy
The dealer will replace the carburetor accelerator pump seal with a new seal having improved distortion resistance and will ensure proper adjustment. This will be done free of charge.

Summary
