1990: Bolts used for brake-strut support do not meet specification and 
may break, resulting in deterioration of steering and braking.



1990: Under certain operating conditions, plastic cover of preresistor 
for auxiliary fan may melt, which could result in underhood fire.



1991-92: If car is restarted soon after shutoff and charcoal canister is 
saturated with fuel, fuel vapor may be expelled onto electric-auxiliary 
radiator-fan preresistor; under certain conditions, that preresistor 
could become hot enough to ignite the fuel.

It has over a million miles on it?

Sounds like somebody checked the wrong box on the title, but
it could mean they wanted to check miles not actual. I'd 
tend to ignore it, 30k in a year and a half is probably
not underreported miles. 

The fun part is that it was a New Hampshire saltmobile, before
becoming a coastal Florida saltmobile for the past year, and
possibly getting whacked by a couple of hurricanes. I'd want
to check it out on a lift, and probably get a look under a couple
of plastic body cladding panels.

Thanks a million, Kaleb! It looks like it have spent
most of life in North before coming to Florida just
last year... It is hard to find any of these cars in
good condition anymore. For anyone who is interested,
this car is on Ebay, item # 4587662970.

I might bid on it if it is still below $2500.
