Fiat Chrysler is recalling almost 700,000 SUVs worldwide to fix a problem that can cause the engines to stall.

The recall covers certain 2011 through 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos.

Most of the vehicles are in North America.

FCA says silicon deposits on the contact points of fuel pump relays can cut off the electrical current and cause engines to stall or fail to start.

The automaker says it's not aware of any related crashes or injuries. The relays on some of the vehicles were replaced in a previous recall.

Fiat Chrysler is finalizing the repairs and will notify owners when it's time to take their SUVs to dealers.
