Chrysler is recalling 180,963 2007-2008 Sebring and Dodge Avenger vehicles equipped with a standard tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). Unused electrical connectors for the TPMS may become corroded and could short circuit, which can cause a variety of conditions including engine no start, dead battery, an inoperative cruise control or remote start system, and/or engine stalling.

Chrysler on Tuesday announced a global recall of 212,347 Chrysler Sebrings and Dodge Avengers, including nearly 15,000 in Canada, to fix electrical connectors.

The South Korean unit of U.S. carmaker Chrysler LLC will recall 467 Sebring sedans sold here because of a defect that may potentially overheat the engine, the government said Tuesday.
