The recall follows earlier reports of isolated incidents where overheating may have occurred, prompting regulators to investigate further. Owners are being urged to avoid charging the vehicles until repairs are completed, though no widespread fires have been confirmed. The automaker is working with dealerships to inspect and address the issue in affected models.
