The cars are old looking, that is not to say they are old. The load dump test is usally 87V riding on top of 13V DC. If the pulling of the battery causes a load dump above that, yes it might not survive it. The lower LD Specs are for 40V and those pass as well.

However, it was a standard test in garages across the US in the time of this era vehicle.

Additionally, most modules do not survive BCI unless specified. However, most will simply reset over an ignition cycle with little or no damage.
