Engine connecting rod bearings on the listed model cars may seize due to inadequate bearing durability. All 1988 and most 1989 model year Conquests are affected. To correct the condition, the original aluminum connecting rod bearings must be replaced with the supplied copper-zinc alloy bearings.
Important: Some of the involved cars may still 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 in the August, 1989 Master Tech program.
