Chariots on Fire - Chrysler Unit Recalls Flammable SUVs

The Chrysler unit of DaimlerChrysler recalled 111,687 2003 and 2004 model Jeep Grand Cherokees after episodes where the heated front seats of the SUVs caught fire. There have been 32 reports of ignition and overheating so far, with 15 injuries. At least six lawsuits have been filed by burned owners. And this isn't where the danger ends. National Highway Safety Administration has claimed that Volkswagen has recalled 1998 through 2000 models of its Audi A6 and S6 models, for a second time. A short circuit in their dashboard wiring system may not have been completely fixed after the 2004 recall, officials say.

If you or someone you know has been injured by a defective product or has suffered an automobile accident, please feel free to contact a personal injury attorney such as Charles Brown in St. Louis, Missouri.
