1986 HYUNDAI EXCEL Recalls (5)
- Campaign:
- 86V043000 on 03/19/1986
- Component:
- Service brakes, hydraulic:pedals and linkages
- Manufactured:
- 12/31/1985 - 01/31/1986
- Affected:
- 8,197
- Defect:
- A cotter pin in the brake pedal to brake master cylinder linkage assembly may be missing. this pin acts as a retainer for the brake master cylinder pushrod clevis pin. consequence of defect: the clevis pin may slide out causing the master cylinder/brake pedal linkage to become disengaged. if this linkage becomes disengaged the service brakes cannot be applied, creating the risk of a crash without prior warning.
- Correction:
- Inspect and install brake linkage cotter pin as necessary.
- Notes:
- System: brake linkage cotter pin. vehicle description: passenger cars.
- Campaign:
- 87V180000 on 12/03/1987
- Component:
- Service brakes, hydraulic:foundation components:disc:pads
- Manufactured:
- 12/31/1985 - 02/28/1987
- Affected:
- 321,000
- Defect:
- Vehicle may fail to conform to the brake fade and recovery portion of fmvss 105.
- Consequence:
- There may be a loss of braking efficiency duringrepeated hard application of brakes which could result in a crash without priorwarning.
- Correction:
- Replace front brake pads with newly designed semi metallic brake pads.
- Notes:
- System: brakes/fmvss 105vehicle description: vehicles with four or five speed manual transmissions andautomatic transmissions.
- Campaign:
- 89V100000 on 07/22/1989
- Component:
- Vehicle speed control
- Manufactured:
- 07/31/1985 - 05/31/1989
- Affected:
- 8,550
- Defect:
- If cruise control main switch is in the on position when engine is started, system can be affected by a short duration voltage drop caused by optional hi-power (h340) radio.
- Consequence:
- This could cause erratic cruise control operation, whichcould result in an accident.
- Correction:
- Replace electronic control module.
- Notes:
- System:cruise control.vehicle description:passenger cars with specific cruise systems (scs).
- Campaign:
- 91V225000 on 01/05/1992
- Component:
- Engine and engine cooling:exhaust system
- Affected:
- 895,000
- Defect:
- Deterioration of the reed valve subassembly may lead to a malfunction within the secondary air supply portion of the emission control system. the screws which attach the reeds to the reed valve subassembly may rust, and if the rusting becomes severe, the screw heads will erode and allow the reeds to separate from the reed valve subassembly. corrosion may also occur on the reed valve subassembly, deforming the reed seats and preventing the reeds from closing properly. separation of the reeds from the reed valve subassembly or improper closing of the reeds allow hot exhaust gases to flow backward into the plastic secondary air filter case when the vehicle is being driven. these hot exhaust gases may melt the secondary plastic air filter case.
- Consequence:
- The melting plastic air filter case may lead to a firein the engine compartment.
- Correction:
- Replace the reed valve subassembly with one whose metal components are fabricated from corrosion resistant stainless steel.
- Notes:
- System: exhaust system.vehicle description: passenger vehicles.note: hyundai motor company will be performing this recall for the hyundaiexcel and for the mitsubishi precis.
- Campaign:
- 93V167000 on 10/24/1993
- Component:
- Power train:manual transmission
- Affected:
- 515,000
- Defect:
- The manual transmissions may lock up from insufficient lubrication of the gears in the transmission case. this can cause the drive wheels to seize and the vehicle to come to a sudden stop.
- Consequence:
- Sudden stops without prior warning can cause vehicleoccupants to be thrown around in the car, and cause loss of vehicle controlwhich could result in an accident.
- Correction:
- Hyundai will perform a cost free transmission oil change.
- Notes:
- System: power train; transmission; standard; manual.vehicle description: passenger cars equipped with manual 4 or 5 speedtransmissions.
