Recall: 1997 Dodge Caravan
Component: EQUIPMENT:CHILD SEAT:INTEGRATED CHILD SEAT
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number: 98V185000
Manufacturer: CHRYSLER CORPORATION
Potential Number of Units Affected: 157000Summary:
Vehicle Description: Mini vans equipped with integrated child seats. The
shoulder harness restraint on the integrated child seat can become difficult to
extract when the safety belt latch plate becomes contaminated.
This can cause difficulty in releasing a child from the restraint.
Dealers will clean the latch mechanism. An extender will be added to the
emergency release anchor for the child seat safety belts so that the release
clips are more visible and accessible to the operator in the event that the
retractor mechanism can not be unlocked. In addition, an instructional owner''s
manual supplement card will be provided.
Owner notification is expected to begin November 30, 1998. Owners who take
their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not
receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Chrysler at
1-800-992-1997. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration''s Auto Safety Hotline at 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
