• SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR Recall for 1990 DODGE MONACO

  • Recall Announced JANUARY 12 1998
  • NHTSA Reference #98V005000
  • Number Affected 293,369

  Summary: Vehicle description: Passenger and multi-purpose vehicles originally sold or currently registered in the states of Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, or Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia. The front disc brake rotors can experience severe corrosion if operated for an extensive period in the "salt belt." If the rotors are not replaced, the corrosion can eventually compromise the structural integrity of the stamped steel center hub section of the rotor.

  Consequence: The reduced strength can allow the cast iron wear surface to separate from the hub, reducing the brake effectiveness of the vehicle.

  Fix: Dealers will replace these rotors with rotors that are coated with a corrosion protection.

• SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE Recall for 1990 DODGE MONACO

  • Recall Announced NOVEMBER 07 1995
  • NHTSA Reference #95V213000
  • Number Affected 90,000

  Summary: The automatic shoulder belt systems can malfunction and become inoperative.

  Consequence: The lack of passive restraints could increase the risk of personal injury in the event of a vehicle collision.

  Fix: Dealers will replace the system track and drive assembly on automatic shoulder belt systems which are currently inoperative and those systems when they become inoperative in the future.

• VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER SYSTEM:WINDSHIELD:HEATER CORE Recall for 1990 DODGE MONACO

  • Recall Announced JANUARY 11 1994
  • NHTSA Reference #94V006000
  • Number Affected 125,000

  Summary: The end cap connecting the heat exchanger's core to the engine cooling system could rupture and allow hot coolant to escape into the passenger compartment.

  Consequence: The coolant escaping into the passenger compartment could contact the driver's feet and injure the driver. Also, steam from the heater liquid will cloud on the window surfaces and impair the driver's vision. In either case, failure of the heater core end cap could result in a vehicle accident.

  Fix: A coolant temperature controlled heater core fluid bypass valve will be installed.

• SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS Recall for 1990 DODGE MONACO

  • Recall Announced FEBRUARY 13 1991
  • NHTSA Reference #91V027000
  • Number Affected 76,000

  Summary: Rear brake tube routing is contacted by fuel tank heat shield when suspension is in full jounce position. This damages the brake fluid tube, causing a leak.

  Consequence: Loss of fluid from half of the diagonally split brakehydraulic system affects braking capability, which could result in an accident.

  Fix: Modify heat shield to eliminate potential for shield contacting brake tube.

• SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS Recall for 1990 DODGE MONACO

  • Recall Announced DECEMBER 17 1990
  • NHTSA Reference #90V205000
  • Number Affected 97,500

  Summary: Routing of the front brake hose may cause excessive hose flexing resulting in premature fatigue cracking of the outer hose cover.

  Consequence: This could lead to hose failure and loss of brake fluidreducing braking effectiveness.

  Fix: Replace front brake hoses with hoses redesigned to provide a modified routing configuration.

• STEERING:WHEEL AND HANDLE BAR Recall for 1990 DODGE MONACO

  • Recall Announced MARCH 23 1990
  • NHTSA Reference #90V058000
  • Number Affected 12,500

  Summary: Lower intermediate steering shaft may separate at the rubber isolated coupling of the shaft.

  Consequence: This could result in loss of steering control and an accident.

  Fix: Replace intermediate steering shaft with a shaft containing a restrained coupling.
