The 1986 Jeep Comanche has 3 recalls, the most serious involving an accelerator cable bushing that can disconnect from the throttle assembly, causing the engine to drop to idle and leaving the driver unable to control vehicle speed.
The parking brake also has a concern: a component inside the brake assembly can bend or give way under load, allowing a parked vehicle to roll away on its own. The third recall is a compliance matter with no associated mechanical defect.
