1991 Toyota Camry EQUIPMENT

RADIO HAS A SHORT CAUSING IT TO SMOKE.*AK THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A SHORT CONDITION SIMILAR TO RECALL 93V-147000. THE TUNER WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND THE CONSUMER COULD SMELL SMOKE. THE VEHICLE WAS BUILT JANUARY 1991. *TS *NLM

RE: NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: - 93V147000. I WAS DRIVING HOME LISTENING TO THE RADIO WHEN IT STOPPED WORKING. WHEN I REMOVED THE RADIO FROM THE CAR I FOUND A SSCP03 TAG DATED 07/13/94 WITH DEALER CODE NO "78" STAMPED ON IT. SSCP03 IS THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) NUMBER I FOUND FOR A "SAFETY RECALL" .TODAY I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AT WHICH I HAD PURCHASED THE CAR, TO INVESTIGATE THIS. THE DEALERSHIP REPRESENTATIVE PRESENTED ME WITH A PAGE OF A "WARRANTY DOFU/SSC REPORT" ITEMIZING A "P03 1991 CAMRY/PREVIA RADIO 08/24/94 31027" FOR MY VEHICLE. IT WAS EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THIS SHOWED THAT THE RADIO [TOYOTA 86120-03042...CE-2233TL1B SERIAL NO. R7002084] WAS FACTORY REPAIRED ON 07/13/94 AND INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE ON 08/29/94, SATISFYING THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SAFETY RECALL. I AM CONCERNED THAT: THIS RADIO CEASED TO FUNCTION SUDDENLY; THE SSCP03 IDENTIFICATION APPEARS ON IT; AND, THOSE DATES PRECEED THE ISSUE DATE "SEP 94" OF THE SAFETY RECALL IDENTIFIED BY ALLDATA.COM. *AK

CONSUMER NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE RADIO AREA, THERE WAS A RECALL REGARDING THE ISSUE, THE RADIO WAS REPLACED. *JB

CONSUMER STATES CAR RADIO SHORT CIRCUITED AND THE POWER ANTENNA IS STUCK IN THE UP POSITION. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL BURNING ODOR WHICH ONLY BEGAN TO SUBSIDE A DAY AFTER MECHANIC REMOVED THE CAR RADIO FUSE. THERE IS A RADIO SAFETY RECALL - SSCP03, HOWEVER, CONSUMER'S VIN IS NOT ON RECALL LIST AND THE RECALL TIME FRAME HAS PASSED, THEREFORE CONSUMER IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A FREE REPAIR OR EXCHANGE. *TT
