    General Motors Co is recalling about 231,000 sport utility vehicles that might be in danger of an electrical short that could cause a fire.

    The move is an expansion of a recall from last August to check 249,000 SUVs for a short in a circuit board in the driver's door that could lead to a fire.

    Vehicles involved in both recalls include the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL and 2006-2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender.

    Of the more than 480,000 recalled SUVs, about 443,000 are in the United States, GM said.
