Are there safety recalls on the 1990 Pontiac Grand AM?

NHTSA lists 1 recall campaign for the 1990 Pontiac Grand AM model year. That covers the model year, not this individual car: to see whether a specific vehicle still needs a recall repair, check its VIN on NHTSA.gov or ask a franchised dealer. Recall repairs are done at no charge.
