Fuel system, gasoline › Fuel injection system › Fuel rail

Summary: The hose material used in the short section of the high pressure fuel line hose, between the fuel rail and fuel pressure regulator, is subject to hardening, and could cause fuel leaks between the hose and the metal pipe fittings.
Consequence: Fuel leaks could ignite on the hot exhaust system, or any other source of ignition, resulting in an engine compartment fire.
Remedy: Replace fuel line hose with hoses made of improved material.

April 9, 1985NHTSA 85V0390001,530 vehicles potentially affected

Fuel system, gasoline › Delivery › Hoses, lines/piping, and fittings

Summary: Fuel hose may be damaged due to too much pressure in crimping the hose end fitting. Consequence of defect: a fuel leak could develop which could cause a loss in system pressure and engine stalling. Also, fuel vapors in the engine compartment could be ignited by a spark and cause a fire.
Remedy: Hoses will be modified by cutting off the crimped end fitting and replacing it with a nipple fitting secured with a screw tightened clamp.

Vehicle speed control › Linkages

Summary: Metal bushings for the cruise control linkage are subject to corrosion due to weather conditions. Also, there is not enough clearance between the bushings and the shaft; and the linkage points were not lubricated. Thus, cruise control linkage can bind, causing the accelerator pedal to stick in a depressed position. Consequence of defect: the vehicle, without warning, would continue at set speed and can't be reduced. This could result in loss of control and an accident.
Remedy: Replace the metal bushings with the plastic version.
