Chrysler Recalls Sedans for Engine Fire Danger

Take the Lemon TestDaimlerChrysler is recalling over 44,000 2006 Chrysler vehicles because the brake system can leak into the engine compartment and erupt into a fire.

Do you (or did you) own any of these potential Chrysler lemon cars or Dodge lemon cars?

  • 2006 Chrysler 300
  • 2006 Dodge Charger
  • 2006 Dodge Magnum

According to federal government safety officials at the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration, these potential lemon cars are equipped with an 2.7 liter engine and were manufactured between June 1, 2005 and February 20, 2006. The problem comes from some EGR tubes being located too close to the vehicle brake tubes. The EGR tubes handle the vehicle’s exhaust gas recirculation system. The brake system design was changed and the brake tube relocated in the engine compartment, apparently without realizing the danger it could pose.

At least 9 cars have caught fire from the problem.
