If I lose the lifetime bumper-to-bumper warranty on the Jeep, I’m going to be pissed. ---

This isn’t news, it’s just a status update since the government’s “sign with Fiat by April 30 or you’re filing” ultimatum has been in place for a while now. GM has also been “preparing” to file for bankruptcy, even though they still have time to get their “viability plan” approved. If Fiat doesn’t get in on this, they have stated that they will be looking at the option of doing the same kind of deal with Opel. If Chrysler goes now, it might give GM some more traction, assuming they can actually ink a deal. ---

if the bankruptcy goes through, how do you guys think it will affect the resale value of the cars? Particularly the 300c / charger rt? ---

I dunno, Deloreans seem to be in circulation even today, and holding their value. It will depend on the the way it’s structured. It might not affect car values much at all. Assuming the company gets basically shut down, the high-end ones that people like should be pretty good, maybe even more valuable. The cheapo commuter car POS types, and fleet cars will likely be worth much less due to the lack of service centers.
