General Motors is recalling 1.4 million cars, because of a risk they might catch fire, this is the third recall intended to fix the problem.

GM reported there were 1,345 cars that caught fire after they were previously fixed by dealers. So even car owners who had their vehicles repaired will need to bring them back for another fix. There is no charge to owners for the repairs.

The previous recalls in 2007 and 2009 included 1.1 million of the cars included in this latest recall.

In all the fires, oil leaked onto a hot manifold. About 85% of the fires took place when the car was shut off and there was no one around the car, GM spokesman Alan Adler said.
