(Bloomberg) -- Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV said it is recalling about 1.73 million trucks for defects including a wiring harness that may short-circuit and set off an air bag.
The largest recall covers about 1.35 million 2012, 2013 and 2014 Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickups and some Ram chassis cabs. The campaign includes about 236,000 vehicles in Canada, 26,543 in Mexico and 23,635 outside North America. Fiat Chrysler said it knows of two injuries related to the issue and no accidents. The company is mailing notices to customers who can then schedule an appointment with their local dealer.
In July, Fiat Chrysler agreed to pay a record $105 million penalty and take steps following a government investigation of the company’s handling of 23 recalls involving more than 11 million cars and trucks. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration demanded that consumers be able to sell their vehicles back to the company if repairs haven’t been completed.
