Ok u have a 91 mr2 and I heard about the AC pump and steering wheel having a recall on them. does anybody know for sure if they are? I haven't had AC for some time now and dangit its hot! I plan on getting it done Monday when I go back home but for right now the dealership is closed. Let me know what you know. Has anybody had it done yet? What's the process?

Take your VIN to a Toyota store and they can check to see if either has been done. I just did this and learned that the steering wheel problem had been fixed but the A/C issue had not yet been addressed. My A/C still blows cold on its original R12 so I won't have the evaporator (IIRC) fixed by Toyota until I have to convert to R134.

if i remember correctly, there was a thread here on the forums where you post/pm your vin and the OP checks for you. might be worth looking into it.

Simply call the dealership with your VIN and they will let you know. The recalls were on the steering wheel (not the air bag) and the A/C expansion valve.

Yes, you are right - campaign was on the expansion value.
