Re: Dodge to bite the dust

Ford rises, Chrysler falters in key quality survey - Projo Cars Blog

This was in todays paper.............This organization is one of the reasons the American car companies are in trouble. How in the world can they put Chrysler at the bottom!! 1 car in the top 10 is American........I've owned and my families owned many Chrysler products. In my opinion, they got a raw deal.............

Re: Dodge to bite the dust

I think, I share everyone feelings about this. I could have gotten into a fight with a middle aged man at a local flea market, when he said he was so proud of his foreign car, and that "ALL AMERICAN CARS ARE JUNK!" I overheard a woman say that "AMERICAN CARS ARE BAD, AND ASIAN CARS ARE BEST". Has brand loyalty to American cars gotten diminished this bad among the general public? But on the hand, you can't tell me that foreign cars are all that perfect.

The best showing American cars have had in a reliability survey in 40 years, and there's room for complaint?

Chrysler's at the bottom because they make the least reliable cars sold here. If you want to look behind the fence on the grassy knoll for more, be prepared for disappointment.

Here are 2 better (more detailed) analyses of the Consumer Reports new results. Suffice to say it's a good time to buy a Ford!

Ford moves up in Consumer Reports reliability rankings -- latimes.com

If I made a comment like this it wouldn't last 5 minutes on this forum.

Any dispassionate reading of the history of this industry would put President Obama's involvement about 13,516 on the list of things wrong, and that's if Glenn Beck made the list.

Make no mistake, this is now an arch conservative forum.

Just how long does anyone think that Fiat will use it's name around here?

It will be interesting to see how the 500 will be marketed. It might be like the Metropolitan or Colt, only not as an imported car.

And who's the judge, C/R? Dave, we've been over this too many times. It's a biased organization, period!
Too bad the public believes this bull crap! They created the monster.
Oh!, and by the way, didn't you just buy your son a Dodge?????????

Toyota now is having big problems with recalls and safety issues throughout their industry............to answer your question, no, none of them are perfect.
