Chrysler Bankruptcy Will Void Any Recall Responsibilities

May 22nd, 2009 by Ross Edwards

In addition to no longer honoring lemon law debts, Chrysler vehicles sold before the company entered bankruptcy will not be the responsibility of the new company if there is any major defect that would normally require a recall. Chrysler will honor minor warranty claims, but any serious defects on vehicles sold before the company entered bankruptcy protection will not be the responsibility of the new company, according to ABC News.

According to consumer advocacy groups, this will leave 10 million vehicle owners with cars and trucks that, in the event of a massive defect, they will be personally responsible for.

This also includes people injured by faulty Chrysler products, like Farbod Nourian, who was interviewed by ABC News. Nourian suffered back injuries when a Jeep Grand Cherokee slipped out of park and ran him over. He is suing Chrysler to cover his tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills.

Sure glad we have a 100,000 mile (upgraded) warranty for the 2009 town and country we bought back in January. The warranty clearly stated that we are under full coverage at ANY ase certified shop. Glad I paid the extra for it.

they'll cover warranty issues but if there's a major malfunction (like the slipping out of park issue on the Jeeps) and someone is injured, the new post-bankruptcy Chrysler won't be responsible.
