Owner Letter

EMISSIONS RECALL -- 1986 OR 1987 COLT VISTA 2WD WITH 2.0 LITER ENGINE

Dear Chrysler Import Vehicle Owner:

The Environmental Protection Agency has determined that your 1986 or 1987 Chrysler import vehicle may be in violation of Federal Emission Standards. For this reason, we are asking you to return your vehicle -- identified by the Vehicle Identification Number on the enclosed form -- to your dealer for a special service repair. This service will be provided free of charge.

The needed instructions have been sent to all Chrysler-Plymouth and Dodge dealers. The service will not hurt your engine performance or fuel economy. To obtain this service:

^ Contact your dealer as soon as possible to make an appointment for the free service. Our records show that this vehicle had a previous emissions recall repair performed (notifications were mailed to owners in December, 1990). If you were the owner of the vehicle at that time, we request that you contact the same dealer for this service as performed the original repair. However, if necessary, the service can be arranged for through any Chrysler-Plymouth or Dodge dealer.

^ Take the enclosed Owner Notification Form with you at the time of your appointment and give it to your dealer. The form identifies the vehicle and notification for which service is required.

^ The dealer will replace the carburetor jet mixture solenoid and the oxygen sensor, inspect the modifications made previously to your vehicle, and clean certain other emissions components. The service will take about two and one half hours, but additional time may be required depending on how service appointments are scheduled and processed.

In order to ensure your full protection under the emission warranty made applicable to your vehicle under Federal law, and your right to participate in future recalls, it is recommended that you have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. Failure to do so could legally be determined to be a lack of proper maintenance of your vehicle. Further, without this repair your vehicle may fail a state or local emission inspection test.

If you have any problem obtaining the service, please contact the Chrysler Zone Service Office in your area. (it is listed under "Service Assistance" in your Owner's Manual.) A Zone representative will arrange for prompt servicing of your vehicle. If you are still unable to obtain the repair as described in this letter within a reasonable time, you may also contact the Manufacturers Operations Division of the Environmental Protection Agency (6405J), 401 M Street S.W., Washington, D.C. 20460.

We regret any inconvenience which this action may cause you, but trust that you understand our interest in clean air and your continuing satisfaction with our product. Thank you for your prompt attention to this important matter.
