Chrysler Recalls Vehicles Whose Power Steering Wiring May Overheat, Catch Fire
By Connor Hart
Chrysler is recalling a group of vehicles over concerns that their electric hydraulic power steering pump wiring may overheat and cause a vehicle fire, even when the vehicle is parked with the ignition in the "Off" position.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Association said a vehicle fire increases the risk of injury.
The recall covers roughly 1.08 million vehicles, including Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Gladiator models manufactured between 2021 and 2025. Chrysler and Jeep are units of Stellantis.
The NHTSA advised owners to park outside and away from structures until their vehicle is repaired and said dealers will inspect and replace affected parts free of charge.
