safety recalls-min

The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):

  • Chrysler is recalling certain 2014-2019 Ram ProMaster vehicles equipped 3.6L engines. The transmission shifter cable may separate and disconnect from the transmission, causing the vehicle to not perform shifts intended by the driver and the gear shift lever position not matching the actual transmission gear. The driver may be unaware of the actual gear position and unintended vehicle movement can occur, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 222,207 vehicles are affected by this recall.
  • Isuzu Technical Center of America is recalling certain 2020 Isuzu NPR HD, NPR XD, NQR and NRR and Chevrolet 4500HD, 4500XD, 5500HD and 5500XD and 2019 Isuzu NPR HD GAS, NPR GAS and Chevrolet 4500 and Chevrolet 3500 vehicles equipped with a dual mode belt locking mechanism seat belt assembly. Due to a manufacturing issue, the seat belt webbing locking mechanism may not properly restrain the occupant as intended. In the event of a crash, if the occupant is not properly restrained, there is an increased risk of injury. NHTSA says potentially 1,138 vehicles are affected by this recall.
  • Kalmar Solutions is recalling certain 2019 Ottawa T2E battery electric vehicles. The transmission tailshaft speed sensor can be affected by electromagnetic interference, causing the transmission to shift unexpectedly. The shifting of the transmission can cause unexpected vehicle movement, increasing the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 22 vehicles are affected by this recall.
