Omigod. a close friend was working on the software for the Kcar. More than once he shook his head and said this is why we drink.

IDK what brand reliability even means, but I do know Jeeps have a robust resale value.

Chrysler died years ago. This is just the final interment of the corpse.

With the UAW its not so much the wages, its the legacy health care costs. Good look at the work force leaving a UAW plant and then aske yourself if you want to insure them in retirement. It adds too much to the cost of the vehicle to make it competitive.

I’ve never owned a Jap car, and
never will, although the K car
did have a Mitsubishi engine.
It’s always been “American”
brand cars for me. Ford and
Jeep mostly, with a couple
Pontiac’s thrown in. I’m in
process now of building a
1940 Plymouth pickup.

Here's more evidence. The PT Cruiser was to be a 60,000 unit sales/year car to break even.
When sales dropped to 50K and then to 19K a year, Chrysler tried to do what they could to resurrect sales but eventually they gave up. In truth the PT Cruiser was the best of the 'retromobile' styled cars from Detroit in terms of sales and it didn't sell that well. The rest of them were sales flops. The Prowler, the HHR, the SSR, the retro Thunderbird - figuratively nobody bought them and they were all sales flops.

Actually the Chrysler 300 and the derivatives were Diamler Chrysler products. Very few people remember the Chrysler crossfire. A buddy of mine had one. It was heavily influenced by German ingenuity.

“Marchionne could detail plans to pull Fiat out of the United States”
might as well; i don’t think they’re selling very many fiats here anymore ... several years ago when they had big TV ad campaign going, I’d see a few on the roads, but now if i see one per month, that’s a lot ...

I had one of those. A 1996 Sebring convertible. A few years after that I owned a 1997 Ford Mustang convertible. You know which was the far better car?
The Chrysler.

Engine light usually means nothing more than emissions (The Environment(TM)) these days. EGR valve, etc. You can afford to ignore it unless you must go through Enviro(TM) inspections. I know that many Chrysler products set the Check Engine light to come on at a certain mileage as a warning to replace the O2 senors. My 1990 Grand Voyager did just that and even though I did replace them I didn't have the proper scan tool so had to get a shop to reset the stupid light.
My 2005 Town & Country didn't do that so YMMV depending on the model year of your vehicle.

That was a great series of commercials by Jack Jones. Really brings back the era of the mid 1970s for me.
Car seats back then were plush! And no bucket seats yet so your girlfriend could snuggle right up to you while you were driving.
Here's a Jack Jones New Yorker commercial that only aired during the 1975 World Series. Red Sox vs the Reds.
