How Will Your New Car Get to Your Dealer?

10 14 09 JCH 8691.jpgFiat/Chrysler wants to substitute cut-rate drivers for the professional car haul drivers who have historically delivered their vehicles to dealerships. Many of these replacement drivers come with little experience, inadequate training, no accountability and inadequate equipment. Some of them are hauling new cars with flat bed trucks or other equipment that is not designed to protect new cars over long distances. Equipment similar to that seen in this photo.



Worse yet, this scheme by Fiat/Chrysler is going to harm professional, experienced drivers and their families. These drivers will be displaced, putting their income, their health benefits and their retirements at risk. We believe the public will be disappointed to learn that Chrysler took billions of dollars in taxpayer money while making promises to save jobs, and instead did just the opposite.
