All Fisker Karmas being recalled--Potential Battery Fires.
« on: December 31, 2011, 04:21:36 pm »
Same issue as Volt...coolant getting on batteries.

American automaker Fisker is recalling all 239 of their 2012 Karma hybrid cars after warning of potential fires within their batteries.

A coolant leak due to an improperly placed hose clamp in the Karma's battery compartment was discovered leading to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's warning of a potential fire by electrical shorts.
