You know they are in trouble when Fiat is getting cold feet about a
merger.

Another one about to bite the dust.

They've threatened to pull out of Canada if they don't " get what they
want".Fiat has most likely looked at the Management (as ****ty as it
is ) and are nervous. The CAW has said if that happens, they'll never
sell another car in Canada.
Besides, the Canadian employees do more work, with less injury....

You spinmiesters crack me up. Go read the announcement by Fiat.
It specifically states that they want the UAW and CAW to get in line
with the pay and benefit packages typical of Toyota and Honda. It also
states that the strongest opposition to the Fiat requirements are
coming from the CAW. So far, the CAW won't budge. Pretty soon they
will be out of a job.

Chrysler doesn't pay it's tax bills either. They owe Canada $500,000
from 2002 or something like that. Real welchers. Shut them down, we
don't need that kind of leach business model in Canada. Plus, from what
friends tell me they still don't know how to make a automatic
transmission. Ya, I bought 2 in the past and learned the hard way.

May tag says what I think of GM & Chrysler.

GM, GMAC, Carlyle, Chrysler-Cerberus, CAW-UAW, get your
selfish greedy hands out of our pockets!
We don't steal from you!
Why do you steal from us?


Just had a yearly safety inspection done on the 2007 Dodge Charger by the
dealer where we bought it.
They claimed the outer tie rod ends were wore out and had to be replaced
before passing the inspection.
This is at 66,000 kilometers...about 40 k miles.

Sounds like the last Chrysler hasn't learned much since I bought a 1989
Caravan. Last Chrysler/Dodge crap I owned.

Bought a new Grand Cherokee with the 6 cyl in 1995 that I sold to a
family member last year, still running strong. Awesome in winter
where snow lasts for months. Dropped a transmission at around 50K
miles but it was still under warranty.

Not saying I'd buy another but it wasn't a horrible experience.
