Default RE: WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO WARRANTIES IF CHRYSLER SELLS OUT??

I would say that Jeep would be the bad luck effecting Chrysler. Look at Jeep's history. First with Willys in 1941, then sold to Kaiser in 1953, then to AMC in 1970, then partly owned by Renault in 1979, then the whole thing is sold to Chrysler in 1987, then Daimler buys out Chrysler in 1998, then Chrysler is sold to Cerberus in 2007.

If I was in GM's shoes I would implement the Lifetime Warranty. With that, it forces the customer to have so much service done that the dealership which ensures it is done and more likely, correctly so and they benefit by making a profit and boosting their reliability ratings at the customers expense and the customer things they are the ones winning in this situation.
