China ordered Fiat SpA’s Chrysler Group LLC to investigate its Jeep Wrangler, saying the SUV had a “relatively high risk” of catching fire and warned owners not to drive the vehicle under extreme conditions.
Owners of the Jeep Wrangler, which is imported, should check the chassis and engine compartment, and promptly remove any flammable material, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in a statement on its website today. They should contact the manufacturer or authorized after-sales outlet and inform the local inspection agency if they encounter any problems, according to the statement, which didn’t specify how many vehicles were involved.
