Here’s what irked me about the Big Three Carmakers. If they were trying to show that they really made QUALITY vehicles, why didn’t the extend their bumper to bumper warranty from 3 years/ 36,000 miles to 5 years, 60,000 miles?

Put your money where your mouth is, Detroit.

I was told they would like to do that, but it would cost them too much to make the repairs on the cars.

But the consumer is supposed to believe in the Detroit quality of cars, when their own executives don’t???

Would like to see Chrysler disappear, or be absorbed by Nissan.

“Would like to see Chrysler disappear, or be absorbed by Nissan.”

Couldn’t agree more. Chrysler was bailed out, but kept up with their ways... poor quality, poor customer service.

The good news is, with the dollar being down, it will pay for the other makers to expand their manufacturing in America. As for the executives, the ones who didn’t get the parachute and were hoping to work up to that level... try a new business guys, you’re on the street, deservedly so.

Chrysler’s drivetrain warranty is 8 years/ 80,000 miles. Nissan's full warranty is also 36-month/36,000-mile coverage, but their limited powertrain coverage is only 5-year/60,000-mile.
