The AP (11/12, Thomas) reports, “General Motors said Thursday it is recalling nearly 14,000 sedans to address potential problems with the power steering. … GM’s recall involves certain 2010 and 2011 model year Cadillac DTS and Buick Lucerne sedans with V8 engines. The cars have alternator cables that can wear through a power steering line, leading to a fluid leak. A leak could cause a loss of power steering and lead to a crash.”

Chrysler is also “recalling about 16,000 Jeep Liberty SUVs to fix faulty windshield wiper systems. Chrysler’s recall involves certain 2008 model year Jeep Liberty SUVs. Water could get into the windshield wiper motor and stop the wipers, which could reduce a driver’s visibility and lead to a crash.”
