7/29/2015 at 7:19 AM
Listened to Phil Edmonston - Auto analyst and consumer advocate on CBC this morning and he said Canadians and Manitobans should be very concerned about a recall in the States, but not yet here.
MPI confirmed there are 6,857 vehicles registered in Mb. of the same make, model and year as the ones the USA National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is forcing Fiat Chrysler to buy back.
-6,487 2008 to 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 trucks
-241 Dodge Dakota trucks
-90 2008 to 2012 Dodge Ram 4500 and 5500 trucks
-14 2009 Dodge Durango SUVs
-25 2009 Chrysler Aspen SUVs
Lisa Raitt, Canada's Minister of Transportation was not aware of the major recall in the US until she saw it in the media and no recall of the same products here in Canada has yet been issued.
It's worth looking into if you have one of these vehicles.
