2 recalls across 2 model years
The Chrysler Imperial has 2 recalls covering the 1974 and 1975 model years, with the most serious on 1975 models involving the factory-supplied bumper jack, where overextending the handle can cause an internal pawl to fail and drop the raised vehicle. The 1974 model has a tandem power brake booster whose diaphragm can turn brittle from heat radiating off the nearby exhaust manifold, develop a vacuum leak, and reduce braking assistance, requiring noticeably more pedal force to slow the vehicle.
