The recall includes about 667,000 vehicles in the United States and covers the Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 from the 2013-15 model years.This is a different problem from the Takata gas generators.

How the Euro Turned Into a Trap
The loss of a member nation would have far-reaching effects in Europe that go beyond economics.The editorial board at the Times does not understand macro economics.
The choice Greece has is pain now and much less pain in the future or
pain with no end or relief.
The parliament has chosen pain with no relief to retain the "hard" currency.
The choice will be disastrous.
