Chrysler Recalls PT Cruiser
June 4 - More than 438,000 PT Cruisers have been recalled by Chrysler.
Federal Safety Regulators said today that power steering fluid leaks could cause fires in the engine compartment.
A Chrysler spokeswoman said there have been 9 reports of that type of fire apparently caused by the problem, but the likelihood of fires is very low, and no injuries or deaths have been reported.
The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has identified the
2001-2004 model years as those affected by the recall.The recall is a blow to Chrysler's recent claims of improved quality. Chrysler is a division of Daimler-Chrysler.
