2013 Dodge Challenger owners warned of fire

3/18/2013

DETROIT — Chrysler Group LLC is telling owners of about 2,500 Dodge Challenger muscle cars with V-6 engines not to drive them because a short in a wiring circuit can set them on-fire.

Owners also are being told not to park the cars in a garage or near a structure until the problem can be fixed.

The cars are from the 2013 model year and have V-6 engines. They were made during the eight weeks that ended Jan. 24.

The company is notifying owners by telephone and mail and will provide loaner cars until repairs are made, at no cost to the owners.
