We have owned many Chrysler cars and have never had any problems with them other than routine maintenance. Jeep Liberty, several Jeep Wranglers, a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and I now have a Chrysler Aspen that I drive the wheels off of being the Mom taxi. Hubby just got a 4 door Jeep Wrangler. We have only owned one foreign car in 27 years of marriage. It was a Subaru wagon. Had to rebuild the engine at 90K miles. Have bought American ever since.

I purchased a new 2008 Chrysler 300 SRT several months ago, and I have had precisely zero problems. I wouldn’t trade my 300 for anything from over the ocean - Pacific or Atlantic. Great quality, great ride, freaking fast, and just plain cool as &*@#!

I had a 93 Dodge Sport Van which had a transmission probelm at 59,000 miles (60K warranty). 5 trips to the dealership and at 60,400 miles it went out - the dealership promptly quoted a bill of $3,400 to fix it w/12 month warranty. I fixed it elsewhere w/same warranty for $1,200 and compalined to Crysler. The sent me a check for $3,000 off on my next vehicle. I returned the check told them I would never buy another Dodge product (had owned 6 prior to that incident). I’ve kept my promise to Crysler and told everyone I’ve know for the last 11-years about this wonderful SERVICE.

I had a 90 Plymouth Voyager, great car.

I then bought a new 95 Dodge Neon. POS. Leaked oil like there was no tomorrow. A/C problems. Traded it for pennies on my wife’s F-150.

1998 Wrangler, the pride of Toledo.
Not a thing wrong after 108K miles and 10 years of Colorado trails...

Maybe it’s not the best time to be badmouthing an American employer...?

I have a five cylinder turbo diesel Dodge van that gets 23 mpg day in day out at 65 mph on the interstate. The quality is exceptional.

The Sprinter manufacturer is Mercedes, in Germany.

Message to Detroit: When you stop making junky cars, I will consider buying one. Until then, it is Honda all the way for me and my family. I just hope it is not too late. Because you have a long way to go.

My 2nd car out of college was a 1980 Plymouth TC3, which was the sportier version of the Horizon. It was the worst car ever made. No power or pep, it was terrible on the hills around Pittsburgh. It handled like a waterbed on wheels - scrapping the crappy OEM tires that came on it and putting Michelins on helped somewhat, but not much. Voltage regulator crapped out at around 15K miles and the dealer was too inept to find the problem - I finally got it fixed at a different dealer. The connectors for the vacuum system disintegrated into black powder - had to replace them myself. It overheated whenever the temp was above 80. I got rid of it with 25K miles on it - it was ready for the scrap heap at that point. The only other Chrysler product I have owned was a 1989 Caravan - this was better but was ready for the scrap heap at 100K miles (while the Nissan Quest I still own is going strong at almost 190K).

A company I know of has hired a bunch of ex-Chrysler guys to run manufacturing operations - to a man they are only concerned with production, never quality.

The major problem that I have with GM, Ford and Chrysler is the poor post sales and maintenance service which is the cause of the demise of the American Car Companies.

The dealership of Toyota provides much better service.

Chryslers are pure CRAP. The three worst cars Ive ever owned were all Chryslers. Why in the world would a struggling GM want to merge with CRAP????!!!! The real problem with all domestics is the greed of the UAW union who have loaded Detroit down with so many per car costs that the US makes cant compete, so corners are cut, and fat lazy Union workers make shoddy cars.

Chrysler hasn't made a decent car since the '71 Challenger....

I’ve owned a number of vehicles made by the Big Three. Some were fair, some were dogs. Honda makes the best cars I ever owned.
