The 1976 Dodge Dart has 3 recalls, the most serious involving a steering bracket that may not be properly welded to the steering column housing, which can cause the steering column to fail and leave the driver unable to steer.
The two remaining recalls are narrower in scope. On vehicles equipped with the Police Package, incorrect power steering components were installed, which can affect how the steering system responds. On Darts fitted with the 360, 400, or 440 cubic inch four-barrel engine, a carburetor step-up piston can stick, disrupting the fuel-air mixture and causing rough running or uneven throttle response.
