NHTSA Fines Fiat-Chrysler up to $105 Million, Jeep Owners Get $100 Gift Cards - Car and Driver (blog)

Instead, NHTSA lumped two $35 million fines—each the maximum under federal law—and FCA agreed to spend $20 million on public service announcements, gift cards, and other consumer outreach. The penalties come two months after NHTSA opened a review of 23 FCA recalls, all spurred by the automaker’s sluggish response to deadly Jeep fuel tank fires —of which FCA had refused NHTSA’s recall request in 2013 —and a corresponding $150 million... Despite a lengthy NHTSA investigation calling out Chrysler’s questionable fuel tank placement behind the rear axle on 1993-2007 Jeeps, higher-than-average fatality rates, and a dubious fix —a trailer hitch mounted on the back bumper—the Jeep... “This action will provide relief to owners of defective vehicles, will help improve recall performance throughout the auto industry, and gives Fiat Chrysler the opportunity to embrace a proactive safety culture. Instead, NHTSA called out three recalls for late-model Ram pickups and Dodge/Chrysler SUVs—one for a faulty axle that could lock up , the other for broken steering tie rods—as violating the Safety Act.

Excessive oil consumption - ConsumerReports.org

Several engines emerged as the main offenders: Audi’s 2. 0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and 3. 0-liter V6, BMW’s 4. 8-liter V8 and twin-turbocharged 4. 4-liter V8, and to a lesser extent Subaru’s 3. 6-liter six-cylinder and 2. 0- and 2.... But our survey data concerning 10 model years shows that if a car burns oil early in its life, it will burn even more as it ages. In tracking oil consumption by model year, engine families show increased consumption with each successive year on the road. In other cases, though, some manufacturers are defending the oil consumption as falling within the car’s technical specifications—or they blame the car’s owner for his or her driving habits. But since that oil change, she says she has been adding a quart of oil every 800 to 1,000 miles. Meanwhile, a settlement to a class-action lawsuit against Audi would extend the powertrain warranty on its 2009 to 2011 model-year CAEB 2. 0-liter turbo engines to eight years or 80,000 miles. Our data shows that newer Audi 2. 0-liter turbos and V6 engines are also burning oil. Source: www.consumerreports.org

FCA recalling 63k Jeeps, Vipers and Ram ProMaster City vans - Autoblog (blog)

- FCA US LLC is launching a voluntary recall of an estimated 43,874 older-model U. S. -market cars and SUVs equipped with manual transmissions. The Company will replace their clutch ignition interlock switches at no charge to customers. The action follows an investigation by FCA US engineers that discovered these vehicles are equipped with switches that contain a certain type of wire implicated in a previous campaign. As a result, the vehicles may not start, and in rare cases – if recommended starting procedures are not followed – a vehicle may exhibit unintended movement when its ignition key is turned. The campaign covers certain model-year 2006 Jeep Liberty and Wrangler SUVs and Dodge Viper cars equipped with manual transmissions and produced between Feb. Additional vehicles are affected in other markets: an estimated 2,944 in Canada, 706 in Mexico and 11,309 outside the NAFTA region. In the interim, customers are advised to follow recommended procedures for starting their vehicles. These procedures include activating the parking brake, placing the shift lever in neutral and pressing the clutch pedal before turning the vehicle's ignition key. - FCA US LLC is voluntarily recalling an estimated 2,408 vans in the U. S. to remove a section of tape from their side-curtain air bags. Source: www.autoblog.com
