What NHTSA is examining

Low parts sales (20 replacement ducts sold to dealers during 5 years to fit 12,484 1984-1987 models) are indicative of a lack of a problem, since some (or all) parts were probably replaced for reasons unrelated to this pe, e.g. To replace parts damaged during servicing or in collisions.===
