Stellantis recalls over 320,000 US vehicles over battery fire risk, says NHTSA
Nov 4 (Reuters) – Stellantis (STLAM.MI), is recalling 320,065 Jeep Wrangler and Grand Cherokee vehicles in the U.S. due to a potential high-voltage battery failure that could pose a fire risk, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Tuesday.
The auto safety regulator advised owners to park outside and away from structures, and refrain from charging their vehicles until the remedy is obtained, which is currently under development.
The Franco-Italian-American automaker had also recalled more than 298,000 U.S. vehicles in October, citing potential rollaway risk.
