Chrysler said today it would recall 25,000 Dodge and Jeep vehicles to fix sticking gas pedals made by the same supplier involved in the much larger recall of Toyota vehicles for the same problem.

The automaker said the problem stemmed from a manufacturing defect at CTS that caused the bearing housing to be made too large, a problem CTS corrected in March 2006. Chrysler estimated that only 30% of the vehicles covered by the recall would actually have the problem.
