Manufactured:
04/30/1989 - 05/31/1990
Affected:
165,000
Defect:
Malfunction of fuel injection system throttle postition sensor could cause intermittent high engine idle speed immediately after starting engine.

Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:foundation components:hoses, lines/piping, and fittings
Manufactured:
12/31/1988 - 05/31/1990
Affected:
33,000
Defect:
There may be hydraulic fluid contamination from condensation formation that can plug the abs brake booster pump filter; stress corrosion of the master cylinder snap ring has been traced to chlorine leaking from the low pressure hydraulic hose which may cause it to break; front brake hose to tire interference which may cause failure of the brake hose.
Consequence:
Contamination of the hydraulic fluid can causemalfunctioning of the anti-lock brake system; low pressure hose leakage causesloss of brake fluid and also results in corrosion and failure of the mastercylinder snap ring, resulting complete brake failure; failure of the front brakehose due to hose to tire interference will cause failure of one half of thebrake system resulting in a longer stopping distance than expected.
Correction:
Replace abs low pressure hose; rebuild master brake cylinder; inspect, service interference problems, and replace front brake hose as necessary.
