For vehicles with the wheelbase of 2180mm (The related recall [RJ-0453-0] states the wheelbase is 2810mm), the propeller shaft may vibrate abnormally at the top speed range because the structure of the power train is improper. At worst, the propeller shaft could break causing the vehicle to stall.
Case Number:
RJ-0452-0
Make/model:
Issued:
Wed, 1995-09-06
Component:
propeller shaft
Affected:
208
Correction:
As a temporary measure, the propeller shaft should be replaced with a new one, and the fuel injection pump should be adjusted to decrease the maximum speed. A permanent measure should be carried out as soon as it is determined how to overcome the problem of abnormal vibration at the top speed range.
