General Motors Recalling Hundreds of Thousands of Cars

If you drive a late model Chevy Cruze sedan, you might want to park it for awhile. General Motors is recalling 413,418 of the cars to modify the engine shield under the vehicle.

A statement from GM vice president of Global Quality, Alicia Boler-Davis, says "the important thing for our customers to know is that we are proactively working to assure the Cruze is the safe and durable car they purchased. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused by these actions.”

A separate recall of 249 vehicles may be involved in that service action because they may not have their fuel tank straps properly welded into place. The automaker says there have been no reports of crashes, fatalities or injuries connected with either recall, however there have been reports of two fires.Those fires sparked the bigger recall.
