#414 of 464 What about quality??? by nortsr1 Jul 02, 2009 (5:58 am)
I just recently read that Fiat is at the bottom of the list for quality in England. How does it rate in Italy and France??? It surely did not have good quality when sold in the states before!!!

Replying to: nortsr1 (Jul 02, 2009 5:58 am) People still remember their Fiats breaking down here in the 70's. If there's a repeat, quality issues could really sink the Chrysler comeback.

yep, I think a whole lot of Americans are concerned about Fiat quality build. Those of us interested will check in to it as best we can and then report on it. Eh?

Replying to: iluvmysephia1 (Jul 02, 2009 12:21 pm) I just spent a weekend at a trade show, and we took out one of our fellow exhibitors' sales reps to dinner. They represent an Italian company, and the dinner discussion inevitably drifted to cars. Both of the Italian gentlemen said they'd never drive a FIAT. Although I surmise that FIAT has to have improved their quality over that of their '60s and '70s offerings in the USA, one wonders. The '60s products would almost rust right before your eyes, but then again, so did others. Replies to this message: mickeyrom (Jul 07, 2009 5:26 am) gagrice (Jul 07, 2009 6:27 am)

Replying to: colloquor (Jul 07, 2009 3:42 am) Being Italian they probably prefer the cars with names that end in I.   Maserati, Ferrari or Lamborghini.

Those of us interested will check in to it as best we can and then report on it. Eh?   Heck, I know people who weren't even born when Fiat finally left our shores, who still know the "Fix It Again Tomorrow/Tony/Twice/Thrice" jokes! So IMO, Fiat will have a bit of a quality perception to overcome. Replies to this message: gagrice (Jul 07, 2009 7:31 am) berri (Jul 07, 2009 9:46 am)

Replying to: andre1969 (Jul 07, 2009 7:08 am) Even if they re-badge them as Chrysler's they will have a reliability image to over come. Though the Dodge Cummins PU is still arguably the best out there.
