Chrysler Recalls Multiple Models for Faulty Wipers

DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler division said on Monday it was recalling almost 269,000 vehicles to replace a faulty windshield wiper motor.

Chrysler said it had notified the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the voluntary recall covering the 2005 and 2006 model years for one of its sport utility vehicles and three minivan models.

The models covered by the recall are the Dodge Durango, the Dodge Caravan and Grand Caravan and the Chrysler Town & Country, Chrysler said.

The company said no accidents had been reported because of a failure of the windshield wiper motor on the vehicles. Chrysler will notify owners when parts are available and replace the wiper motors without charge, it said.
