Fiat Chrysler recalls 4.8 million US cars

Posted online

Potential for a defect that could prevent drivers from turning off cruise control has caused Fiat Chrysler to recall 4.8 million U.S. vehicles. 

The Italian-American car maker warned owners not to use the function until they get software upgrades. No injuries or crashes have been reported related to the large recall campaign.

There was one report of a driver of a 2017 Dodge Journey being unable to turn cruise control off. Company officials said an "unlikely sequence of events" could lead to drivers being unable to cancel cruise control.
