Nov. 21, 2019—Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) will recall nearly 700,000 cars for faulty electrical connections, according to Reuters.

The faulty electrical connection could prevent engine starts or contribute to a stall. The recall will address deposits on the contact points of fuel pump relays that may interrupt electrical current. 

The automaker had previously recalled most of the same SUVs in 2014 and 2015 for issues with their fuel pump relays.

The recall includes around 528,500 vehicles in the United States, 34,700 in Canada, 18,100 in Mexico and 116,500 outside North America, according to the report.
