Subject:
Safety Recall # 460 -- Headlamp Wiring Harness

Models:
1990 Model Year Plymouth Laser -- Build Dates From Start of Model Year Through 4/5/89

The listed model cars may experience electrical harness wire breakage near the headlamp connectors. The condition results from excessive stress to the harness between the connector and the convolute cover when the headlamp housings are raised and lowered during operation.

To correct the condition, a jumper cable must be installed in both right and left headlamp wiring harnesses.

Important:
Some of the involved cars may be in dealer stock. Be sure to complete the service on these cars before retail delivery.

Details of this service action are explained in the following sections. As an additional service aid, a videotape demonstrating the service procedure is included with the October, 1989 Master Tech program.

Vehicle List

Each dealer to whom involved cars were invoiced (or the current dealer at the same location) will receive a listing of them with this letter, arranged in Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) sequence. Owners known to Chrysler are also listed. The lists are for dealer reference in arranging for service of involved cars.

Each Chrysler-Plymouth dealer without a Vehicle List will receive an information copy of this letter by Compak Mail for use in performing the service on involved cars upon request.
