NHTSA investigating fires in Cruze, Wrangler
DETROIT?? The government said Sunday it is investigating reports of engine fires in the Chevrolet Cruze small car and Jeep Wrangler SUV.
The fires haven't caused any injuries but have destroyed at least six vehicles. NHTSA is investigating the 2011 model year Cruze and the 2010 model year Wrangler.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has received two reports of fires in the 2011 Cruze. In both cases, owners reported that the fires began while the cars were moving, and in both cases the cars were destroyed.
According to complaints filed on NHTSA's Web site, a driver with a 2011 Cruze Eco was 30 miles into a 43-mile trip last month when smoke started coming out from under the hood. As soon as the driver stopped, flames began shooting out from the car.
"The car was totally engulfed within five minutes of stopping, and it was only after the first sign of fire was visible that the warning light on the dashboard illuminated," the driver told NHTSA. NHTSA doesn't post drivers' identifications on its site.
General Motors Co. spokesman Alan Adler says the company knows of no deaths or injuries related to the issue. GM is cooperating with the investigation. The company sold approximately 177,000 Chevrolet Cruzes from the 2011 model year.
NHTSA also has received eight reports of fires in 2010 model year Wranglers. Most began when the vehicles were moving, and four owners reported that their vehicles were destroyed.
The owner of a 2010 Wrangler told NHTSA that the vehicle was parked and running when it suddenly turned off. The owner was attempting to restart the vehicle when someone outside the vehicle began yelling that it was on fire.
"Once out of the Jeep I looked under it and saw and unknown liquid burning down to the ground from the engine area. I attempted to extinguish the fire with water but I was unsuccessful. Within minutes it was a total loss," the owner said, according to NHTSA's documents.
Chrysler Group spokesman Nick Cappa says the company is aware of the incidents but knows of no accidents or injuries related to the issue. Chrysler is cooperating with the investigation. The company sold 131,000 Wranglers from the 2010 model year.
Cappa said that vehicle fires are complex and can happen for various reasons, including some that have nothing to do with the vehicle itself. Poor maintenance, improper vehicle use or the installation of aftermarket equipment can all cause fires, he said.
"The 2010 Jeep Wrangler meets or exceeds all applicable federal safety standards and has an excellent safety record," Chrysler said in a statement.
NHTSA investigations can lead to vehicle recalls.

Japan to support US nominee to head World Bank

TOKYO, April 1 ? Japan will support Jim Yong Kim, the US nominee for the next World Bank head, Japanese Finance Minister Jun Azumi said on Sunday after meeting the candidate who is in Tokyo on his world tour to seek support for the candidacy.Kim, a Korean-American, will be contesting against two nominees from emerging market countries - Nigerian Finance Minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and former Colombian Finance Minister Jose Antonio Ocampo - for the Washington-based institution's top job.
"We decided he is an extremely suitable candidate for the World Bank presidency and we will support him," Azumi said, stressing his track record working on HIV/AIDs issues with the World Health Organisation.
Azumi said that the right candidate for the job would understand Japan's stance as a major contributor country and would be able reflect that in the World Bank's policies.
Kim, a physician and anthropologist, was named by the Obama administration in March as the US pick to succeed Robert Zoellick when he steps down in June.
By tradition, an American has headed the World Bank since its founding after World War Two, but the emerging economies are increasingly open about challenging that convention.
"Mr Kim's mother and father are from the Korean Peninsula. He is of course the US nominee, but he also fully understands the position of developing countries heaving spearheaded the efforts to eradicate AIDS at the WHO," said Azumi in a bid to reassure emerging economies.
Next on the agenda of Kim's "listening tour" as the US Treasury Department calls the trip, is Seoul, New Delhi, Brasilia and Mexico City. He is touring the world between March 27 and April 9 to meet heads of state, finance ministers and others to talk about priorities for the World Bank.
The candidate is the president of Ivy League university Dartmouth College, was born in South Korea, but moved to the United States as a boy. ? Reuters

NICE, France (AP) ? Patrick Chan of Canada has won the figure skating world title for the second consecutive year despite a couple of errors in his free skate.
He is the first man to win consecutive titles since the now retired Stephane Lambiel of Switzerland in 2006.
Japanese skaters Daisuke Takahashi and Yuzuru Hanyu took the silver and bronze medals.
Chan skated the first part of Saturday's program to the haunting sounds of Joaquin Rodriguez's "Concierto de Aranjuez", then abandoned his double axel jump late and fell. He had earlier wobbled slightly on one landing, but did enough despite Takahashi's season's best.
