If you read the story, the schools don’t hold the title, so Chrysler is still liable. They were basically a permanent loan. It sucks, but legally they can’t be sold or driven.
And the blame goes to....? Well, you-know-who. An entire MULTIIVERSE of government-related trouble awaits those who put a car with no VIN number on a public street.
But, I won’t miss them. Pretty good, albeit rudimentary engine, whose only claim to fame was number of holes and displacement, in a car with the style and sophistication of a shaved bar of used soap.
