The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) is investigating roughly one million late-model trucks and SUVs built by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles over reports that the vehicles may be prone to rolling away after being parked. The investigation reportedly covers 2014-2016 model year Dodge Durangos and 2013-2016 model year Ram 1500 pickup trucks. According to the report, the government says it has 25 reports from owners alleging the vehicles rolled away and crashed, which led to at least nine injuries.
FCA said it is cooperating with the federal authorities. While the investigation is under way, the government is reportedly recommending all owners of the afflicted Durangos and Rams use their parking brakes.
