Owner Letter
SAFETY RECALL - AIR BAG SYSTEM FRONT IMPACT SENSOR MOUNTING
Dear Chrysler Motors Vehicle Owner:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
Chrysler Corporation has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in some 1991 model Dodge Spirit, Dodge Shadow
Convertible, Plymouth Acclaim and Chrysler LeBaron Sedan passenger cars. The air bag system front impact sensors may not be mounted to the radiator
closure panel as required. If the sensors are not mounted, the air bag may not perform to protect the driver in the event of a frontal impact accident,
possibly resulting in additional injury.
Your car, whose Vehicle Identification Number is shown on the enclosed form, is one of the affected vehicles. For this reason we ask that you arrange
for service as soon as possible to ensure that the air bag sensors are properly mounted. The service as defined in this letter will be provided free of
charge.
The work will take about one-half hour to complete. However, additional time may be required depending on how dealer appointments are scheduled
and processed. To obtain this free service:
^
Contact your dealer without delay to schedule an appointment for the service.
^
The dealer will inspect the air bag sensor attachments. If necessary, the dealer will mount the sensors correctly to the vehicle.
^
Take the enclosed Owner Recall Notification Form with you at the time of your appointment and give it to your dealer. The form shows the
identification number for the vehicle which requires service.
If you have any problem obtaining the needed service, please contact the Chrysler Zone Service Office in your area. (it is listed under "Service
Assistance" in your Operator's Manual.) A Zone representative will arrange for prompt servicing of your car.
We regret any inconvenience which this action may cause you. However, we believe that you understand our concern for motor vehicle safety, and for
your continued satisfaction with our products. If your dealer fails or is unable to remedy this defect without charge within a reasonable time, you may
submit a written complaint to the Administrator, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 400 Seventh Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20590, or
call the Toll Free Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393. (Washington D.C. area residents may call 366-0123.)
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
