Seems Chrysler cannot figure their way out of the mess they are in. Just read the auto rating magazines and you'll see why. It seems that for years the big three have depended on patriotic mentalities of veterans of American wars or Americans felt the need to support union auto workers. And people believed the old saying. "Hey, it mechanical and machines break down."
I for one never fell for that. I tried to be patriotic and I bought an 1985 Ford Escort which blew a head gastic at 25,000 miles. Not acceptable! The mechanic told me well you know mechanical parts (the seal in this case) break down. And I thought yes it does if it is cheap or if there is faulty workmanship. I don't care if union or not it seems the workers do not take pride in their work like the Japanese do.
When the Japanese designed the Miata, they tries many different ways, designs and engineers with various expertise. I loved the Miata...and according to Road and Driver..yes car and driver are one. And the car was mechanically dependable.
You see, most people buy cars to get from point A to point B on time and without having to drive most of the way as a passenger in a tow truck...like I did. Thank god for AAA.
All the Big Three had to do was build a decent product and they wouldn't be in the trouble they are in now. Americans are getting really tired of being made a fool of. I know I am!
Have integrity, honor and pride and sell me a good, dependable product..one that I can be proud to own. And please make the car buying experience more pleasurable. Why even Toyota tried to rip me off in the accounting office...trying to slip in extended warranty when I said No! Good thing I did my homework and had an amortization book with me and knew exacting what my car payments should be. And the bickering with the price... we were there for three hours going back and forth and playing stupid games between the salesperson and his manager. The salesperson actually acted like he was working for us. Such bull shit. It was salesmen 101 textbook to the period.
