Chrysler is recalling over 160,000 2007-2008 Jeep Wranglers with automatic transmissions because they weren't equipped with a transmission fluid temperature warning system.

 

Without any sort of warning system, the fluid could boil over and come in contact with the hot engine or exhaust components, and start a fire.

 

Chrysler dealers will install a "HOTOIL" message in the instrument cluster and a chime to indicate elevated transmission fluid temperature. Owners can call Chrysler at 1-800-835-1403 to see if their Wrangler is part of the recall.
