Chrysler said the agency has received about 180 complaints of engine stalling in Wrangler and Nitro vehicles.There has been one accident linked to the issue, the company said, but no injuries have been reported. Chrysler will notify owners about the recall later this week and the work will be completed at no cost to consumers.
