A powertrain control module voltage regulator chip may fail, causing a stall or no-start condition, and a stall can increase crash risk. Another Electrical System recall concerns cruise-control software that may allow the vehicle to maintain speed or accelerate when cruise control should disengage, also increasing crash risk.
