Chrysler was hit with a $105 million dollar fine as part of a massive recall to buy back vehicles. MPR News' Kerri Miller talks with consumer analyst Michelle Krebs about how the recall will affect drivers, and how an average consumer can be clued in to recall news.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration provides numerous resources to find out about recalls, if any, for your vehicles.
