CHRYSLER VAN, TRUCK PROBE UPGRADED
DaimlerChrysler minivans are getting a closer look from the U.S. highway safety agency because of air bags that deploy too late or not at all, Bloomberg reports. NHTSA also upgraded a probe of Dodge Durango and Dakota trucks, which may have defective steering wheels. Water can seep into air bags used in 2005 and 2006 Dodge Caravan and Chrysler Town and Country minivans, harming a sensor that controls the devices' activation, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said.
