Minor changes followed for 1988 (a model year in transition under the AMC/Chrysler merger) and 1989. 1990 models added a rear wiper on hardtops, with this being the final year for the old AMC 258 six, at 112 HP.

DEFECT #1 - POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION


Posted on: 2005-10-06
Description
On certain pickup trucks, sport utility and passenger vehicles equipped with 42rle automatic transmissions, the cup plug that retains the park pawl anchor shaft may be improperly installed.  If the shaft moves out of position, the vehicle may not be able to achieve 'park' position.

Consequence
If this occurs and the parking brake is not applied, the vehicle may roll away and cause a crash without warning.

Corrective Action
Dealers will inspect the transmissions and install a bracket to ensure the park pawl anchor shaft is retained in the proper position.  The recall began on november 28, 2005.  Owners may contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
