Chrysler Group LLC is recalling about 367,350 Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, citing airbags that may inadvertently deploy. Chrysler said it is recalling some of the 2008 model year minivans because water leaks may cause the airbag warning light to illuminate and the airbags to inflate. The recall was posted on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Web site today.
Volkswagen AG is recalling 377,286 cars in the United States, citing fire risk from fuel-supply lines that may chafe and leak. VW is recalling Jetta, Jetta SportWagen, Golf, Rabbit, New Beetle and New Beetle Convertible cars, it said in a letter posted today on the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Web site. “It’s a voluntary safety recall,” said Kerry Christopher, a spokesman for Volkswagen at its U.S. headquarters in Herndon, Va. “There haven’t been any reports of injuries or fires that have resulted from this.” The recall applies to model years 2007 to 2009 of Jettas, Golfs and Rabbits and model years 2006 to 2010 of Beetles. Some Jettas from the 2009 model year are also under investigation by the U.S. auto-safety regulator after it received reports of engines stalling without warning while the cars are moving.
