On certain vehicles, the automatic tensioner that maintains tension of the engine timing belt does not have sufficient vibration-absorbing power. If left unfixed, the external spring of the automatic tensioner may break causing the timing belt to slack, and in the worst case, the engine could stall. Note: This recall is for the vehicles that were installed inappropriate auto tensioners as a factory approved replacement of the past recall (case number RJ-0537-0, submitted on 1 October 1998).
