Recall information provided by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
Component not known
96V212000
During assembly of the left rear quarter panel, some welds were missed. This causes a failure to comply with the requirements of FMVSS No 301, "Fuel System Integrity".
In the event of a rear end collision, the vehicle sheet metal structure will not perform as designed, causing unexpected damage to the fuel tank or fuel lines, resulting in fuel leakage. If there is a fuel leak and an ignition source, a fire could occur.
Dealers will inspect for the missing welds and if necessary, place three welds between the involved panels and apply primer, sealer and anti-corrosion materials.
