 Recalls
Check with the seller to ensure that the recall work was completed on these items.


1997: It is possible that the intermediate steering shaft yoke may break, causing a loss of steering control. Dealer will inspect and replace affected parts.


1997: Operation at highway speeds in winter conditions can cause PVC fitting to freeze; throttle plate could then remain in cruising position after pedal is released.


1997: Certification label shows incorrect rear-tire-inflation pressure.


1997: Retainer clip that holds master-cylinder pushrod to brake-pedal arm could be missing, causing loss of braking.


1997: Seatbelt-anchorage attachments are missing or misinstalled.


1997: Separation of transmission bracket fitting from cable can result in inability to shift into "Park."


1997-98: If vehicle is overloaded, rear leaf springs can fracture.


1997-98: Throttle is unable to return to idle due to ice forming in throttle body.


1997-98: Shift-cable assembly might not be fully attached to steering column bracket and could come out, preventing shifting into "Park" even though indicator shows it is in "Park."


1997-98: Certain off-lease vehicles, Canadian in origin but sold in the U.S., have daytime running lights that do not meet U.S. specifications.


1997-98: Lug nuts may loosen and studs may experience fatigue failure, with potential for wheel separation.


1997-98: Main battery cable can contact body panel in trunk, resulting short circuit.


1999: Tire and rim identification information is incorrect on certification labels.


1999: Fuel-pressure regulator O-ring may have been damaged, allowing fuel-vapor leakage.


1999: Speed-control cable on certain vehicles can interfere with pulley, preventing throttle from returning to idle when disengaging the speed control.


1999-00: Accelerator-cable core wire on certain trucks can wear the conduit end fitting; could lead to separation of strands, which could prevent throttle from returning to idle.


2000-01: A switch located in the plastic cover of the wiper-motor gear case could malfunction and overheat, potentially resulting in loss of wiper function or fire.


2000-01: Some of the owner's manuals for these vehicles are missing instructions for properly attaching a child-restraint system.


2001: Driver- and/or front-passenger-outboard seatbelt buckle may not fully latch. In the event of a crash, the restraint system may not provide adequate occupant protection.

 Trouble Spots
Check for these possible problems when test-driving and inspecting this vehicle.


Audio system: Electrical noise caused by the electric fuel pump in the tank can cause a buzzing noise when the AM band of the radio is selected. (1997)


Automatic transmission: Transmission fluid can leak from the transmission into the transfer case. The low transmission-fluid level causes shifting and engagement problems. (1997)


Automatic transmission: If water gets into the transfer case, the mode switch can be shorted out making it impossible to select a different range. (1997)


Climate control: Cold air may come out of the heater vents at the floor due to a door in the duct not sealing properly. (1997)


Dashboard lights: Water in the spark-plug wells may cause the ignition spark to jump to ground causing a misfire and illuminating the check engine light. (1997)


Engine misfire: The engine may run rough or idle roughly if condensation from the air conditioning drips onto the oxygen sensor. (1997-98)


Engine noise: Piston slap on cold startup due to faulty pistons in 5.4-liter engine. (1998)


Heater core: Installing a restrictor in the heater inlet hose may repair heater cores leaks. (1999-2002)


Transmission problems: Torque converter dust plug may fall out. Replacement should be retained with RTV sealant. 1989-2003)
