A recent thread brought up the "HO" recall. This final 914 recall was issued long after the 914 was out of production and was the second time the fuel hose and battery cover problem was addressed. There were several other recalls, including some that were to be performed on the dealers lot before the car was sold. A complete list of all the recalls can be found HERE
This thread has scans of the 9J recall which checked fuel lines and installed a battery cover. The first notice of the upcoming 9J recall was mistakenly listed again as the "9F" recall that was a month earlier. A month after the recall was issued it was amended to increase the VIN range. Years later the HO recall would cover some of the same issues. |
