The New York Times (5/5, B3, Jensen, Subscription Publication, 12.24M) reports that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is investigating a Jeep and Dodge sun visor recall last year affecting 895,000 vehicles after the NHTSA “received eight reports of fires in vehicles whose electrical wiring had been repaired in a recall started by Fiat Chrysler in July, according to a statement on its website.” One Jeep owner reported the fire from the sun visor spread throughout his vehicle.
