NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Fiat Chrysler (FCAU) shares are gaining, up 0.83% to $15.69, on Tuesday despite reports that the company may be forced to recall over 600,000 Jeep Wrangler vehicles due to an airbag issue, according to the Associated Press.
U.S. safety regulators are investigating whether the airbags in 630,000 Wranglers made between 2007 and 2012 could potentially not inflate during a car crash.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said that it has received over 200 complaints that the airbag warning light in the vehicles is on which indicates an electrical problem in the steering wheel.
The agency has not reported any injuries or fatalities related to the problem and Fiat said that it is cooperating with the investigation.
