Stellantis to recall over 53,000 US vehicles over fuel pump issue, NHTSA says

(Reuters) - Chrysler-owner Stellantis is recalling 53,849 vehicles in the U.S. over potentially faulty fuel pumps, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Tuesday.

The recall covers certain 2017-2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia and 2018-2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio vehicles, the auto safety regulator said.

The vehicles had fuel pumps that may contain components vulnerable to heat, which could lead to reduced fuel supply and sudden power loss, and increase the risk of a crash, the agency said.

NHTSA said the remedy for the issue is under development.

Owner notification letters will be mailed by October 29, according to the agency.

Earlier in September, NHTSA said Stellantis was recalling about 92,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles in the U.S. due to a software error within the hybrid control processor that could cause a loss of drive power.

The regulator, last week opened a probe into about 287,000 Chrysler Pacifica minivans from the 2017-2018 model years over potential issues with their electric power steering.
