Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV said its recalling about 894,000 vehicles in two campaigns that include inadvertent deployment of air bags and leaky sealants on anti-lock brakes.
A record penalty that could reach $105 million isnt the only imposition U.S. auto-safety regulators are making on Fiat Chrysler: Its also getting a house guest.
Fiat Chrysler's recall of about 1.4 million cars and trucks equipped with radios that are vulnerable to hacking is the first formal safety campaign in response to a cybersecurity threat.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV is offering a software patch to close a loophole that let two hackers take control of a moving Jeep sport utility vehicle in an incident spotlighting the vulnerability of connected autos.
An investigation into how Fiat Chryslers U.S. unit has been handling the recall of millions of vehicles intensified Monday as federal officials requested more documents from the automaker and scheduled a rare public hearing.
