Where is the blog about the ad thanking taxpayers?

Wow, why would anybody buy a Chrysler product? Even with incentives that I've had to pay for? We bought a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee after decades of having great products from the company. This Jeep however has been nothing but a lemon. Not only can you not see out of the thing becuase of the vast amounts of bulky plastic inside, but the suv's performance is horrible. We should have known what kind of vehicle it would be when the dealership hadn't filled up the fluids properly and my mother got stuck in a parking lot because the geniuses at Walter's Chrysler Jeep in NC weren't competent enough to fill the transmission container full. Next all the interior lights shorted after having the vehicle for less than a year bought brand new off the lot! The thermometer hasn't even worked right. I don't know how many times over the summer the temp according to the Jeep was 24 degrees, down here in the South. What a piece of crap! Everytime I drive it, I get pissed off. Thank God we have a warranty, but we're stuck , the piece of junk has depriciated so much it's worthless. I had an older Jeep and began to have problems from age. My newest vehicle is a Toyota Tacoma and it's been the best buy ever. I guess we'll have to trade in our worthless Jeep for a Toyota or Honda. At least they'll run forever and their companies hire Americans and build plants here. They also don't abuse our tax money. Farewell Chrysler it's been a long run, but your greed has ended you. Perhaps after Nardelli has run you into the ground some other corporation will hire him and he can run than into the ground too!

Instead of test driving and looking at reviews of the dealership they always blame the manufacturer. I have some advise to you........try MAINTAINANCE.........instead of blaming your cars! I've had many Chrysler vehicles with over 150,000 trouble free miles, and have never had any complaints. I do routine maintainance because I plan to keep my vehicles for long term. Chrysler makes great vehicles, their quality is improving rapidly, and their sytling is the best in the business. Also you get a lifetime powertrain warranty..............so you know Chrysler stands behind their products. So purchase a Chrysler today from a dealer who has a good reputation!

"Not only can you not see out of the thing becuase of the vast amounts of bulky plastic inside," What a stupid comment. Did you test drive the Grand Cherokee before you bought it? Only an idiot buys a car without test driving it first.

Three things in life are certain: death, taxes, and people complaining about the car they own. Two or three years from now, people will be saying, gee, these are great cars! Jobs have been saved! That loan was a good idea! If posters want to complain about bailouts, they should educate themselves on what's going on with our financial system. I would *gladly* write a personal check to save an automaker rather than give a dime to the corrupt elite in the banking system. But, I didn't have a choice. Our family has had nothing but good experiences with Chrysler products. If I wasn't so concerned about mpg, I'd probably trot down to my dealership and buy an AWD 300c with the latest promotion. I'm optimistic that Chrysler will introduce competitive vehicles with excellent mpg and quality over the next two years. I'm willing to wait and see and then choose the best vehicle.

We too have an '07 Grand and have had endless problems as well; Transmission keeps slipping, windows don't auto roll up or down the right way, the passenger side front door doesn't seal right, the temp gauge doesn't display the correct temp (likes to say its 33 degrees and when its negitive 6 outstide we assume the Jeep wishes it were 33 degrees outside LOL). When we got the vehicle we had to take it right back as we found bolts missing from the wheel wells, some lines not properly connected, etc..etc. The Grand has always been a dream vehicle of mine but we've decided that a Liberty will be our next purchase when our lease expires as we never had problems with past Liberty's before and we still need a "family Jeep" (or I'd be looking at Wranglers). I will not give up the security that I feel in a Jeep, but I will give up the dream of one day owning a Grand Cherokee outright. My '02 was in the shop every 4 months for new roters, and now the '07 gives us more trips to the dealership. Our busy schedule makes this quiet inconvenient so we'll go back to what we know is built solid and other than oil changes hadn't needed trips to the dealership; the Libertys.

TNAPwife if your replacing rotors every two months your either riding the brakes or buying Chineese rotors. You found bolts missing from your wheel wells? What kind, the little plastic clips that hold the splash shields in. And the ambient temp sensor is inaccurate and that I've seen before in jeeps as I work on them. I personally dont understand that when you get your oil change, you just mention that the temp guage isnt right and with a quick swap of the sensor (usually) your on your way. I dont see the big deal. I would buy a new 300 myself and get rid of my current Chrysler but 2 things 1. I dont know how secure my job is 2. I like stone white not cool vanilla for the color and that color is offered only to fleet vehicles which means I'll probably buy my 300 used.

Why has the information regarding Employee + pricing not been sent to the field. The dealerships in Southern California are unaware of such an offering. Champion Dodge and Browning Dodge. rather sad when the consumer must educate the employee's.

Posted Jan 26, 2009, 9:37 AM by TNAPWife "....................... ............Well I have a 2001 Grand Cherokee with 78,000 trouble free miles on mine. Maybe you should stop the hard breaking.....it does ruin the rotors. Also stop driving through puddles fast after the breaks are heated up, that will also warp the rotors.....lastely make sure the mechanics don't over tighten the lug nuts, this will also warp the rotors. I love my 2001 Jeep grand cherokee, it's never let me down, and it rides smoother than a cadillac!

Employee Pricing and Zero percent financing??? It's the best kept secret since the ENVI Program! How about a little notice to the General Public? How About telling YOUR dealers? For years we have had great products and lame advertising, we can't get the word out by only using U tube, ADVERTISE!!! How about 15 seconds before or after the Super Bowl?

Chyrsler made a statement that the 1.5 billion would free up credit, and allow more loans to customers for new cars. However this is not the case many people are being turned down with perfect credit, and scores over 700. Are the loans only being give to the customers in the North region? It does not matter how good the product is , if the financing company does not support the manufacture.

Thanks to all that posted on my problems with my older ('02) Grand. As for the brakes, we were told the rotors were the problem and dealership could only replace with what company okayed. If they got from China, then thats what I had to deal with. I do appreciate the tips though, and will take to heart, especially when going through high water puddles. I've had sensor replaced in the '07 twice so far. Maybe ongoing problem with supplier part??? I don't know. Thats the least of the problems of this one. I do love the Grands. I'll get a Liberty next time around (if we still have jobs....) and then after that we'll see. Seen a new black Liberty all chromed out and after I picked my jaw up from the floor decided that will definately be next for me. BUT, Ain't nothing like tooling around in a Grand I have to admit. I absolutely love the style and the comfort of the ride. THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE!! THE BEST THING ABOUT OWNING A JEEP IS HOW EVERYONE IN THE JEEP FAMILY ALWAYS HELPS ANOTHER MEMBER!! ITS ALMOST LIKE RIDING A HARLEY!!!
