 Dodge Chrysler DaimlerChrysler Vehicles - Problems Quality Reliability Safety Defects
This continues despite the 1998 merger with Daimler Benz (Mercedes Benz) and constant claims by DaimlerChrysler that this is a significant benefit to consumers.
Daimler Chrysler has used evasive and sometimes fraudulent tactics to avoid liability for known defects while the consumer often pays, out of pocket to repair problems created by this company in the first place and in some cases, the consumer could even potentially pay with their life with certain defects.
Daimler Chrysler would rather consumers have to purchase replacement Transmissions at the cost of $1700-$2500 for Transmissions that were defective and trouble prone in the first place.

  The Daimler-Chrysler Collision - By James Surowiecki - Slate Magazine
Daimler is going to have to be able to make and sell more Mercedes more cheaply because it has acquired Chrysler, and vice versa, for the deal to make sense.
Daimler will give it immediate entry into the European market, and presumably some of the Daimler cachet will rub off on Chrysler abroad.
Daimler's cars feature safety innovations that Chrysler will be able to incorporate into its vehicles and, most intriguingly, Daimler has been a pioneer in fuel-cell technology, which means that Chrysler will immediately become the dominant American player in developing noncombustion-engine cars.

Daimler's basic plan was to create gasoline-only engines and to use them to power every conceivable type of vehicle — on land, on water and in the air.
Daimler merely looked after the financial side of the venture, Maybach enjoying a free reign as far as design was concerned.
The increasingly tense relationship between Daimler on the one side and Lorenz and Duttenhofer on the other eventually led to them effectively excluding Daimler as a shareholder, by demanding that debts of 400,000 marks be settled that Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft had run up with the bank.

 Daimler Chrysler Flax Verdict | Unsafe Seatbacks | Collapsing Minivan Seats | Georgia Atlanta Attorney
The jury further found that Daimler was negligent for failing to warn at the time of sale of the known dangers of collapsing seatbacks, and for failing to warn after the sale when information continued to come to Daimler’s knowledge demonstrating the seats in all its minivans were unsafe and dangerous.
Daimler knew that those front seats were liable to collapse in rear and, on occasion, in other impacts, and that children had in fact been injured as a result.
Daimler defended the case by arguing to the jury that there was a "debate" among engineers about whether stronger seats were better than weaker seats, and that stronger seats could cause whiplash and other neck injuries to occupants of the seats because they would not "yield" enough.

The next step in carrying through the merger, Daimler officials announced Monday (September 21), will be to persuade shareholders to exchange their Daimler-Benz stock for new Daimler-Chrysler shares.
If, as Daimler officials hope, 90 percent or more of its shareholders participate, the merger would qualify as a “pooling of interests” under U.S. accounting regulations, which would allow the new corporation to avoid taking a charge against future earnings for the premium Daimler-Benz is paying above the value of Chrysler’s assets.
Together, Daimler and Chrysler expect to produce a total of 4.4 million vehicles this year and to take in DM 260 billion in revenues.
