Fiat Chrysler (FCAU) Recalls Old Minivans in North America
Read MoreHide Full Article
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. is recalling 297,000 old minivans in North America, due to a wiring problem, which can lead to unintentional airbag deployments, per a Reuters news. The wiring might short-circuit, resulting in driver-side air bag deployment without any prior warning.
Out of the total 297,000 recalls, 209,000 vehicles are from the U.S. and nearly 88,000 from Canada. If needed, the dealers of Fiat Chrysler will be replacing the wiring and add a protective covering over there. The recall is scheduled to begin this late July.
The recall of Dodge Grand Caravan minivans of model year 2011-2012 is due to eight minor injuries, after an initial report of 13.
Of late, several prominent automakers have been recalling tens of millions of vehicles mainly due to air bag problems, among others.
Almost a dozen of automakers has called back 46 million Takata air bag inflators in 29 million U.S. vehicles. These air bags involve defective inflators and propellent devices, leading to improper deployment in the event of a car crash, which results in shooting of metal fragments into vehicle occupants.
