General Motors Co., the largest U.S. automaker, is recalling some Cadillac and Impala cars while Chrysler Group LLC called back some Jeep and Dodge sport utility vehicles, according to government reports today.

The GM recall may affect 132,921 vehicles, including 2013 to 2015 Cadillac XTS models made from Feb. 14, 2012, to Aug. 22, 2014, and 2014 to 2015 Chevrolet Impalas made from Jan. 15, 2013, to Aug. 22, 2014, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in a Sept. 19 statement posted on its website today. If the electronic parking brake piston actuation arm doesn’t fully retract in these cars, the brake pads may be partially engaged, creating excessive brake heat that may cause a fire, the agency said.
