Auto Companies To Romney: Stop Lying About Us Please

Chrysler, Jeep’s parent company, has publicly condemned Romney’s claims as false, writing on its website that they have “no intention of shifting production of its Jeep models out of North America to China” and that any expansion in Asia is to serve Asian markets. In fact, they are adding over 1,000 jobs to their Toledo factory as part of a $500 million investment in upgrading its capacity.

After Romney continued to suggest otherwise in ads, Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne personally called him out for “inaccurate” claims.

“Jeep is one of our truly global brands with uniquely American roots. This will never change. So much so that we committed that the iconic Wrangler nameplate, currently produced in our Toledo, Ohio plant, will never see full production outside the United States,” Marchionne said on Tuesday. “Jeep assembly lines will remain in operation in the United States and will constitute the backbone of the brand.”

Now that they got caught.

Impressive.

As I said, they could change their minds on Nov. 7, get the plum for lying that Romney was lying, etc.

Oh, the tangled webs they weave whenever they decide "DECEIVE!!!!"

Chrysler Parts have already been being produced in China for some time now. They're available here: Zhejiang Qingyuan Auto Parts Co. , Ltd

Any other questions?

You're in the wrong thread. Go back to your Pringles and Dr. Pepper and finish watching your story.

I don't drink soft drinks and don't eat junk food.

And oh, yes, I am on the right thread and I just proved every one of you lackeys liars.

Face it. Romney was telling the truth as he knew it. It's true. China has been doing parts for Chrysler, Jeep, and others for a loooooong time.

Oh, you can't face it?

Then we'll have to let the American people decide. You better get a hell of a lot better spin than you have right now, NYcarboneater.

This had nothing to do with parts.

This is about Romney lying, and the Washington Examiner lying.

 

[NYcarbineer]

Once again for the mentally ill aka liberals.

During a campaign stop in Defiance, Ohio, last Thursday, Romney claimed that Jeep was mulling a proposal to move “all” production to China.



“I saw a story today that one of the great manufacturers in this state Jeep — now owned by the Italians — is thinking of moving all production to China,” Romney told the crowd of Ohioan supporters.
.

What the Bloomberg article said:



Oct. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Fiat SpA, majority owner of Chrysler Group LLC, plans to return Jeep output to China and may eventually make all of its models in that country, according to the head of both automakers’ operations in the region.

MATCH!!!

This is what the Bloomberg article also said:

"Manley referred to adding Jeep production sites rather than shifting output from North America to China."

If you weren't an illiterate rightwinger you know what the word 'adding' meant.

Let me help you.

Jeep builds Wranglers in the US.

Jeep adds a Wrangler plant in China.

Jeep now builds Wranglers in the US AND China.

See? They can build it in more than one place at the same time. Go sit down awhile and think about that. It'll dawn on you eventually.

No he wasn't. Jeep was going to move their jobs to China, like they already have with parts.

Who do you think you're fooling, NYC?

I think you're related to PC Barnum of "There's a sucker born every minute" fame.

The headline of the story.

Fiat Says China May Build All Jeeps as SUV Demand Increases

The headline itself says that "China may build ALL jeeps. That means all of them.

(Updates with Jeep production sites in fifth paragraph.)

Oct. 22 (Bloomberg) -- Fiat SpA, majority owner of Chrysler Group LLC, plans to return Jeep output to China and may eventually make all of its models in that country, according to the head of both automakers’ operations in the region.

Once again they are saying that they "may eventually make all of its models in that country."

Once again it says ALL OF IT'S MODELS IN THAT COUNTRY. ALL.

.
Chrysler, which entered an alliance with Turin, Italy-based Fiat as part of its U.S. government-backed bankruptcy, is relying on growth in China to counter weakness in Europe’s auto market. The automaker is targeting 500,000 annual sales outside North America by 2014, more than triple its overseas deliveries in 2009.

Chrysler currently builds all Jeep SUV models at plants in Michigan, Illinois and Ohio. Manley referred to adding Jeep production sites rather than shifting output from North America to China.

Manley referred to adding Jeep production sites in their current plan. However, they are considering that they "may eventually make all of its models in that country, according to the head of both automakers’ operations in the region"

Once again what Romney said--- “I saw a story today that one of the great manufacturers in this state Jeep — now owned by the Italians — is thinking of moving all production to China,” Romney told the crowd of Ohioan supporters.

Therefore what Romney said wa trUe. He saw a story (the Bloomberg article) that states that Jeep is thinking of moving all production to China.

That is EXACTLY WHAT HE STORY SAYS. THAT'S THE HEADLINE OF THE ARTICLE.

Message From Sergio Marchionne Regarding Jeep Production
by Sergio Marchionne
October 30, 2012 11:55 AM Chrysler Group’s production plans for the Jeep® brand have become the focus of public debate.
I feel obliged to unambiguously restate our position: Jeep production will not be moved from the United States to China.

North American production is critical to achieving our goal of selling 800,000 Jeep vehicles by 2014. In fact, U.S. production of our Jeep models has nearly tripled (it is expected to be up 185%) since 2009 in order to keep up with global demand.

We also are investing to improve and expand our entire U.S. operations, including our Jeep facilities. The numbers tell the story:
• We will invest more than $1.7 billion to develop and produce the next generation Jeep SUV, the successor of the Jeep Liberty -- including $500 million directly to tool and expand our Toledo Assembly Complex and will be adding about 1,100 jobs on a second shift by 2013.
• At our Jefferson North Assembly Plant, where we build the Jeep Grand Cherokee, we have created 2,000 jobs since June 2009 and have invested more than $1.8 billion.
• In Belvidere, where we build two Jeep models, we have added two shifts since 2009 resulting in an additional 2,600 jobs.
With the increase in demand for our vehicles, especially Jeep branded vehicles, we have added more than 11,200 U.S. jobs since 2009. Plants producing Jeep branded vehicles alone have seen the number of people invested in the success of the Jeep brand grow to more than 9,300 hourly jobs from 4,700. This will increase by an additional 1,100 as the Liberty successor, which will be produced in Toledo, is introduced for global distribution in the second quarter of 2013.

Together, we are working to establish a global enterprise and previously announced our intent to return Jeep production to China, the world’s largest auto market, in order to satisfy local market demand, which would not otherwise be accessible. Chrysler Group is interested in expanding the customer base for our award-winning Jeep vehicles, which can only be done by establishing local production. This will ultimately help bolster the Jeep brand, and solidify the resilience of U.S. jobs.
Jeep is one of our truly global brands with uniquely American roots. This will never change. So much so that we committed that the iconic Wrangler nameplate, currently produced in our Toledo, Ohio plant, will never see full production outside the United States.

Jeep assembly lines will remain in operation in the United States and will constitute the backbone of the brand.
It is inaccurate to suggest anything different.
Sergio Marchionne

 

[SniperFire]

China will most certainly be making Jeeps, and the CEO of Fiat said they will be making Jeeps in Europe to shore up their home-nation slump with the idea of exporting them to the USA.

Us Ohioans hate Obama for selling us out.

 

[Katzndogz]

That will work right up to the point where Jeep closes production in America.

 

[Navy1960]

Today, Jiang is one of 150 Boeing employees working in China, while another 6,100 work for Boeing joint ventures and subsidiaries there. And all of Boeing's current commercial airplanes, from the 737 to the 787 Dreamliner, incorporate parts made in China.
Boeing Feature Story: The great call of China

I have had the the chance to read most of the thread and above is another example of how common it is for companies to produce both in China and in the US. Frankly I have no idea what Gov. Romney is trying to speak on here when it comes to Jeep other than to misinform voters into voting for him, because Gov. Romney himself is well aware that Jeep production is not moving to China and in fact its common in the industry for parts to be made overseas as well as production plants for local markets. Want an example, look no further than the car parts company that is moving there that the Gov. himself will get a dividend from . In short both GM and Chrysler now Ford have all told the Rommney campaign that they are wrong in one form or another in every paper in the region as well as press releases and the web, and in this one Romney is just plain wrong.

 

[Neurotika]

so even when the ceo of jeep posts it twice..you still believe the lie?

 

[Navy1960]

Plainly, Chrysler Group LLC will continue to build Jeeps in the United States, he said.

“Jeep assembly lines will remain in operation in the United States and will constitute the backbone of the brand,” Mr. Marchionne said. “It is inaccurate to suggest anything different.”

Gawd.

Not THIS lie again.

Not a total lie, but the confusion comes from the usual semantic bullshit. Jeep is not considering moving production from the US to China, but they are considering opening new production in China.

Well, since Jeep is an American company and has always produced their product in the US, then they are in fact moving production to China. The vehicles produced in China are sure as hell not produced in the US.
