The 1981 AMC Eagle has two recalls, the more serious being a front wheel bearing and hub assembly missing a spacer component, which can cause the wheel spindle to shear and lead to a crash.
The second recall involves the front seatbelt assemblies mounted to the B-pillar, where the left and right belts may have been installed on the wrong sides of the vehicle. In a crash, a misinstalled shoulder belt may not restrain the occupant correctly, raising the risk of injury.
