Checks Written By Chrysler Start To Bounce At The Bank

Chrysler's bankruptcy is throwing a wrench into California's lemon law, which is intended to make it easier for consumers to get refunds for defective vehicles. As the automaker's bankruptcy grinds away, settlement checks from Chrysler to unhappy car buyers are bouncing and complaints are stymied in and out of court.

Consumer advocates say the situation could erode public confidence in buying new cars at precisely the time the automakers need customers in their showrooms. And Chrysler says it has yet to do anything to resolve the issue.

Stop it, just stop it. These jokes are simply killing me. I can't stop laughing.

Sucks for people who decided to buy American in the last few years, but I have very little sympathy for anyone who bought a new Chrysler auto in the last six months or so (since it became obvious they were not going to survive), or anyone buying GM cars. Would you really leave your automotive and/or financial well-being up to how much the government can pervert the legal process and keep obviously failed companies alive as zombie nationalized entities? Really?

LOL LOL LOL. Way too funny!
At least dealerships that are short on qualified technicians will be able to look through resumes of Chrysler trained technicians. Maybe they will learn how to repair Tatas.
