There is zero chance of me buying either so this news will not affect me in any way shape or form. WHo knows though the CHinese might run it better then the idiots at Fiat.

Hell, 10 years after an Asian co. Buys them, all these red blodded patriots will be telling us how they; last forever, repair themselves, and actually produce more fuel than they use!

No kidding- the Jeep Cherokee my daughter owned was a rolling POS, when it rolled. Mostly it sat needing repairs.

I'll likely buy another Ford. I'd like a Subaru Forrester, I have nothing against the Japanese but I don't trust that new fangled CVT transmission to go 250,000 miles.
Cars and trucks are major purchases, I want as much US content as I can afford. China, NFW.

Problem solved. I would never buy a subaru forrester. I have been helping a good friend battle a dealer and Subaru as her 2015 burns 1 to 2 qts of oil every 1, 000 miles. Find out late rthere is a class action suit and a cover up by subaru. Have know other ones to have major problems too and Subaru just gives the run around.
