Known issues on the 1987 Toronado. The 1987 Toronado has 1 recall on the federal record. It concerned certain 1987 Toronado vehicles in which the power steering pump pressure hose did not have enough room next to the transmission governor and speed sensor connector. Rubbing against it could wear through the hose, and the resulting fluid leak carried a risk of fire under the hood. A new hose was the fix. One owner complaint is logged, about the power train. The steering system and transmission procedures, specifications and torque values in this manual cover the parts involved.
