- I can assure you that Chrysler is not happy to cover warranty

- to get a lawyer several times to get those dedecuctibles waived (for
- repairs that had been made before under warranty). Chryler is also notorious
- for refusing admit theres anything wrong with a vehicle.

- It is companies like Ford and Chrysler that lead Americans to sue --
- Dan Quayle should be complaining about the shameless manner in which
- big companies breach their contracts with consumers rather than the
- lawyers. When we have companies like Ford and Chrysler running
- around, blaming lawyers for lawsuits is like blaming the Post Office
- for junk mail.
