KJ-0314-0

For vehicles with 4G64 engine, the right side cover of the engine does not have an appropriate shape, and therefore, water from a wet road etc. may splash on the power steering pump driving belt. If this occurs, the belt may slip, and in the worst case, assist from the power steering pump could decrease, which would make the steering heavier.

RJ-1315-0

The left front brake pipe is too close in design to the resin clip securing the power steering hose, and therefore the two parts can interfere with each other from vibration during driving if they are installed too close due to the installation variation. If this problem is left unattended, in the worst case, the brake pipe may be damaged causing brake fluid to leak, which can adversely affect braking performance. (This recall is not for vehicles with ABS.)

RJ-1251-0

The radiator upper hose should be replaced with the factory approved replacement unit, and the hose clamps should be replaced with new ones.

RJ-1153-0

On certain vehicles with automatic transmission, the strength of the rubber-made oil seal that keeps oil pressure of the clutch operating only in the 4th gear is insufficient. If left unfixed, a crack may occur in the oil seal, and the oil pressure may decrease, causing the clutch to slip. As a result, pressing the accelerator pedal does not make the vehicle to accelerate. This recall is to include more vehicles in the past recall (case number RJ-0433-0, issued on 12 April 1994) and to change the corrective action.

RJ-1156-0

For the water pump, the fitting (boss) where the idler pulley for the timing belt is secured on lacks sufficient strength due to insufficient thickness. If left unfixed, in the worst case, the boss gets damaged causing the pulley to fall off, and this causes the timing belt to come off resulting in engine damage. Note: This recall is only for automatic transmission vehicles with turbocharger.

KJ-0256-0

On vehicles with automatic transmission, the shape of the pulley on the alternator with built-in vacuum pump is improper. Because of this, when the alternator drive belt is too tight after vehicle maintenance, the belt may prematurely wear. If left unfixed, in the worst case, the belt gets damaged stopping the vacuum pump, and this causes impaired function of the vacuum brake booster resulting in reduced brake efficiency. Incidentally, the belt has sufficient durability as long as it is adjusted within the specified range.
