Chinese Authorities have placed a distribution ban on the Jeep Wrangler due to concerns about some 2008 - 2010 vehicles catching fire.
Chrysler LLC have issued the following response:-
'Chrysler Group is cooperating fully with China’s General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine to identify and fix 2008-2010 model-year Jeep® Wrangler SUVs equipped with automatic transmissions and sold in China.
In February 2010, Chrysler issued a global recall to address a potential for transmission fluid to overheat and expel onto hot surfaces that could pose a fire hazard.
The conditions were linked to extreme and/or abusive driving conditions under rigorous off-road conditions.
Outside of China, Chrysler Group is not aware of any vehicle fires related to this condition once the recall was completed.
Chrysler Group is not aware of any injuries or accidents due to this condition.'
Australian vehicles are already subject to pre delivery inspection and recall.
