    Please do not close Tarbox Jeep in N. Kingstown. It's in a convenient location to where I live and a great dealership.

    Dealers like Westminster Dodge in Dorchester, MA and South Shore Chrysler in Braintree MA are important small business enterprises in the community that employ taxpayers, support civic and charitable organizations and add value to the Chrysler name. These dealers are the lifeblood of the auto industry and are not the cause of any harm to Chrysler. Without dealers like these two, many loyal customers will be forced to shop at other brands because of location (these dealers serve a lower to middle class region) and the desire to avoid the mega dealer. Please stop the indiscriminate closing of dealers - each should be judged on objective merit.

    If tax payer money is bailing out the Automotive Industry, why don't tax payers have a vote in this decision making? I would like to hear from our Pennsylvania Representitives. There are a lot of signatures from Pa., it would be great if you could respond and let the voters of Pa. know your position with this decision.

    I work for Fiesta Dodge in San Antonio, TX. Chrysler has terminated a dealer with top level sales people (Sales Master Certified) and long-term certified technicians. We are a profitable business owing no money to Chrysler other than our floorplan. We are also a 5-star dealer and receive additional employee discounts on vehicle purchases as a reward for that accomplishment. We also have a used car department that sold for both our Lincoln-Mercury Dealership AND our Dodge dealership. This was one of the criteria for termination. Was this what got us terminated? Who knows.. there is no appeal process. Several of our lower ranking competitors who will remain open either lease their property from Chrysler or owe Chrysler money for the building they are in. Is this the reason we are being terminated? Seems very possible, but without an appeals process, we won't know. We also have sold 150 this past month with over 2/3 coming in the liquidation. How can Chrysler cut a dealership who can move that kind of volume? What is worse, is that we took on the extra inventory that Chrysler BEGGED the dealers to order and then they shoved it up our @$$. How is that being allowed by our government? Chrysler is left with bait-and-switch dealers who advertise $15,000 off 2009 models and don't deliver, dealers who will advertise 40% off and don't deliver, and dealers who will give you a FREE (HA!) PT cruiser if you pay FULL MSRP for a Ram 1500 truck. It almost makes me happy that we are cut if those are the types of dealers they want to keep in the fold. I love Chrysler vehicles. I own a 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, a 2009 Durango Limited, and a 2004 SRT-4. I LIVE a Dodge / Jeep lifestyle. Those are more than likely the last Chrysler products I will buy new. I may get a used Challenger in the future, but it is a bitter pill to swallow. Even worse is what they have done to the owners. They have owned the dealership for over 20 years. They sold the Dodges that were some of the worst vehicles ever built by the company. They built a dealership based on FAMILY and TRUST. There is an open door atmosphere in which we can express concerns or ask questions without fear of reprocussions. We have customers who regularly bring referrals to us to the point where we should put them on staff. I am up at 5am because I can't sleep. I have been working 14hrs a day to help move as many of the vehicles as I can so we don't get stuck with inventory from Chrysler while actually wanting to let the vehicles sit and rot on the lot. I hope Chrysler or someone reads this and realizes that their matrix has a margin of error and many excellent dealers are getting axed.

    The obviously criminal behavior of Obama and his thugs must be stopped. Stealing our tax money to pay off political cronies, engage in who knows what kind of corruption, and create a system of rewards and punishments based solely on political loyalty. It could not be more screwed up. Obama must be forced to divest and prosecuted for these crimes.

    These dealers are successful but have been targeted for closure. This is travesty!

    This wrong to terminate the ealerships contracts Chrysler has no moneys invested in thee family run dealership. By closing ealweship puts a burdon on alot of US Citizens. Now I ned to fin a dealership that is trust worthy. This is a wrong thing to happen. No one has asked my opinion on which dealership should be closes, since my tax dallors has been given to the auto makers. All of this will drive the auto costs ou the top. Not a very good idea. Icoud go on and on and on. I am retired from the Federal Gov. and the same thing is happening again. A BANDADE as been put out on to cover the bleeding area and no chance to heal. The rich get richer and the midde and lower class citizens have to handle the burdon. I really do not know how my grand babies will get through life. I know his will nt get read and will not make any difference. I how God will watch out for us.
