KCee I think they were good, nice little vehicles. But the problem was that the Chrysler execs would go out and drive them right off the assembly line, with speedometers unhooked. And they did a lot of damage to them, wrecks, then they were simply put back on the line and run through again. Mine did not even have the correct parts, they were from a previous year, and did not fit correctly. Tie rod ends were almost off as they left the pins out of the castle nuts. But they were 'flopping' anyway due to the ill fit/wrong size. The fender had been replaced, but not undercoated; I had said something about the paint not being an exact match, but never looked under the wheel well.
There was a hell of an investigation, iirc, and ol' Lee took it up the arse.
** An otherwise prosperous Chrysler decade was tarnished in 1987 when a federal grand jury indicted the automaker for odometer fraud. The company allegedly disconnected odometer cables on more than 60,000 cars and drove them up to 400 miles before reconnecting the cords. If these cars were involved in accidents, they were repaired and sold as new.
While Chrysler denied any illegality, company policy allowed assembly-plant executives to joyride in brand-new cars with odometers disconnected for almost two decades. An initial warranty extension was unable to satisfy the court, and Chrysler was eventually forced to mail $500 checks to 32,000 affected customers. **
I'm assuming either the dealer or the fella that bought mine got that check, I did not.
