NHTSA Campaign #06E091000 FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP

NOVEMBER 02
2006

24,358 vehicles recalled

1995 CHRYSLER CIRRUS -- Certain Airtex fuel pump modules, P/nos. E7089M, E7094M, E7113M, and E7129M, manufactured between June 1 and September 24, 2006. These fuel pump modules were sold as aftermarket for use in certain DaimlerChrysler vehicles listed above. Silicone material used in manufacture of the flapper valve was out-of-specification, leading to excess swell of the flapper valve restricting the flow of fuel to the fuel pump module.

Fuel restriction could result in loss of power and/or engine stall, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.

Airtex will notify owners and replace the defective fuel pump modules free of charge. The recall began on October 18, 2006. Owners may contact Airtex toll-free at 1-866-867-3759. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #06E091000 »

2,315,768 vehicles recalled

1995 CHRYSLER CIRRUS -- On certain passenger vehicles, the floor shifter ignition-park interlock may fail and allow the shifter to be moved out of the park position with the key removed. An inoperative interlock may also allow the key to be removed when the shifter has not been placed in the park position.

Either circumstance may result in the vehicle rolling away without warning.

Dealers will install a new load-limiting push rod into the floor shifter lever of the affected vehicles. Owner notification began on June 14, 2004. Owners should contact DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-853-1403. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #04V021000 »

NHTSA Campaign #98V183000 POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:PARK/NEUTRAL START SWITCH

AUGUST 06
1998

685,000 vehicles recalled

1995 CHRYSLER CIRRUS -- Vehicle description: Passenger vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions. The adjustment of the cable connecting the console shifter mechanism to the ignition key can cause a trapped key condition which can result in a low force required to depress the shift button. A combination of applying a mis-adjusted release button with a low force attempt to shift out of park with the key in the locked position, can break the connecting pin in the shifter.

If this happens, the "ignition-park" interlock system will be nonfunctional.

Dealers will inspect for proper operation of the system. Any vehicles that are not functional after the inspection will have the shift mechanism and cable replaced with a "self-adjusting" design.
