The Pontiac Starfire has 1 recall affecting the 1975 model year, where the spare tire hold-down bolt can straighten in a severe frontal collision, allowing the spare tire and wheel to break free and travel forward into the passenger cabin.
When the bolt fails to hold, the spare tire becomes a loose projectile inside the vehicle during the crash, raising the risk of serious injury to occupants beyond what the collision itself would cause.
