Chrysler LLC announced it is recalling 212,347 2007 Chrysler Sebrings, 2008 Chrysler Sebrings, 2007 Dodge Avengers and 2008 Dodge Avengers globally in order to correct an electrical problem that may lead to engine stalling and other issues.

The recalled Chrysler Sebrings and recalled Dodge Avengers were sold with standard tire pressure monitoring systems. According to reports, unused electrical connectors for the monitoring system could become corroded and short circuit, leading to problems starting the engine, a dead battery, an inoperative cruise control, or engine stalling.

Consumers may contact their dealer, who will seal the wires for the tire pressure monitoring system at no cost. They may also can contact Chrysler at 1-800-853-1403.
