Chrysler recalls 1.9 million cars

[Suarez™]

Fiat-Chrysler will recall 1.9 million vehicles built from 2010 to 2014 equipped with faulty airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners, and that the problems are responsible for three deaths and five injuries. Chrysler did say that the conditions for a problem to occur are specific, and require a “vehicle equipped with a particular occupant restraint module and front impact sensor wiring of a specific design” to be involved in “certain collisions.”

The recall does spread outside of the United States, hitting 142,959 cars in Canada, 81,901 cars in Mexico and 284,051 outside the North American continent. The affected cars in Mexico are examples of 2010 Chrysler Cirrus compacts, and the affected cars outside North America are 2012-13 Lancia Flavia sedans.
