Gov't Probing Reports of Audi Sedan Fires

WASHINGTON — The government said Friday it was re-examining a 2004 recall of Audi sedans for wiring problems after it received six reports of fires starting in the driver's side dashboard.

In March 2004, Audi recalled about 173,000 models of the A6, S6 and Allroad Quattro vehicles made between 1998 and 2004. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said it has recently received the reports of fires in A6 sedans from the 1998-2004 model years.

It will investigate whether the recall was adequate.

Audi officials did not immediately return messages Friday.

Another Audi US debacle on horizon, or just a false alarm?
