Fire-risk Jeep imports suspended

CHINA'S top product quality watchdog said on Friday that the country would suspend imports of Jeep Wrangler vehicles because of a serious potential safety hazard.

Several cases of imported Jeep Wranglers catching fire have been reported in China. Investigations found that the fires were the result of a problem in the vehicles' automatic transmission and related systems, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said.

The AQSIQ did not mention whether these incidents resulted in casualties, and have urged Chrysler, the vehicle's manufacturer, to find the cause of the problems and solve them.
