MyAUTO.PWRecalls are a well-established global practice; from time to time they are announced by almost all manufacturers of not only cars, but also any other industrial products. But since a car is considered a source of increased danger, it is recalls in the automotive industry that attract the most attention and cause the greatest resonance.

Additional Description: Very cool rare old 1980 Volkswagen Mk1 Rabbit Sportruck - PROJECT. 1.6l Gas engine 5 speed manual transmission. Got this out in Western Nebraska a year ago - been sitting a shed / barn. It was parked because of rust - i loaded it up and had a local shop weld up some support under the truck on passenger side lower control arm area - then also some inner fender well repair on that passenger side to make the truck ' Safe ' to drive. I also flushed fuel tank - did new rear brakes ( drums ) and wheel bearings and fresh e brake cables. The truck runs and drives - took it on a few road trips. Then the clutch started slipping and i parked it. ( please read above also about the alternator voltage regulator ) The truck will start ( with a jump start and drive around my shop but once that clutch gets hot it doesnt like to work it just likes to slip. Please inspect the pictures for the rust ! its every where ! But what are going to do - throw the truck away? No - i replaced the truck after thinking about ABA swap for awhile and collecting parts. I would bring a trailer and $2000 in cash ( i am losing money at $2000 FYI ) If it does NOT sell by end of July i will replace clutch and sort alternator and then ask $4000.1980 Rabbit Truck - It got rust - Every where. But it is 1980 Westy Tarpon Blue Sportruck. I had some welding repair work done to the passenger side lower control arm area and inner strut tower to make it ' safer ' to drive. I took alot of picture of it up on the hoist., 1.6l Gas engine - CIS fuel injection. 5 speed manual transmission. Truck been sitting a few years so i did a fuel tank flush - then had to do all new rear brake drums / wheel bearings and rear e brake cables. I went on a few short 50 mile road trips- the clutch would slip going up hills. But it made it - then i used the truck to push a TOUAREG into my shop and - the clutch was NOT HAPPY. When it cold it seems ok - but i would probably not drive it very far. The alternator voltage regulator is bad - the truck will NOT shut off with the key sometimes - unhooked the alternator wiring and BAM it shuts of everytime. I have not had time to look into any further - i was going to ABA 2.0 swap the truck eventually - but i just bought another truck that better serves my needs. As i was uploading picture i forgot that i had a new exhaust installed ( ya forgot it cost me $300+ too )
