Rappel pour les 300 - Chargers

[Mitch]

Article sur CNN.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Chrysler Group is recalling about 119,000 model year 2011 and 2012 Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger sedans in the United States because of a problem that could cause the anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control systems to malfunction.
Anti-lock brake systems pump a car's brakes extremely rapidly in order to prevent the wheels from "locking up" during hard braking. Locking up can lead to loss of control and longer stopping distances because it can cause a car to skid.

Electronic stability control systems, which also use computerized brake controls, intervene to prevent a car from skidding during sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers.
In the recalled cars a fuse for the computer controller that operates those safety systems can overheat, causing it to lose effectiveness.
Owners will be asked to bring their vehicles to Chrysler dealers to have the fuse replaced. The new fuse will be mounted in a different location inside the car where it won't be subject to extreme temperatures.
The problem was first discovered on Dodge Charger police cars. Chrysler engineers initially believed the problem was confined to police models. Further research, however, showed that civilian cars were also experiencing the problem.

Although they look different, the Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 are both based on the same underlying engineering.
"Despite a small number of incidents, we concluded it was in the best interest of our customers to repair the vehicles and eliminate the potential for this condition to occur," David Dillon, Chrysler's head of product investigations and campaigns said in a statement.
No accidents or injuries have been reported as a result of the problem, according to Chrysler.

Ford Recall
Units Affected – 1,125

2012 Ford Expedition, 2012-2013 Ford Mustang, 2011-2012 Ford F-150, 2012 Lincoln Navigator
Certain vehicles may have been equipped with an incorrectly manufactured Transmission Range Sensor. In some instances, when the shift lever is placed in the “R” position, signal may not be provided to the electronic transmission range indicator “PRNDL” for “R” illumination and/or for backup lamp activation. Should the backup lamps fail to illuminate, the driver’s intentions to reverse may not be conveyed clearly to other motorists and/or pedestrians, which could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the Transmission Range Sensor.
Ford
Units Affected – 5
2012 Ford F-150
Certain vehicles may have been equipped with incorrect Occupant Classification System software. In some instances, these vehicles could temporarily experience an inaccurate occupant classification, which may illuminate the Passenger Airbag Disable lamp or activate the seatbelt minder. Failure of the passenger frontal airbag to deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant. Correction: Dealers will replace the Occupant Classification System Module.


Voilà, situation balancée.
