- Notes
- Possibility engines with carter 4- barrel carburetors contain inadequate carburetor fast idle cams.prolonged usage, aggravated by engine backfiring, may result in failure of secondary lockout finger.this would reduce engine perfor- mance by keeping secondary throttle shut and could result in an open throttle condition where in engine would not return to idle.(correct by installing new designed fast idle cam.)

Has your Chrysler 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. Recall repairs are free.
