Peugeot and Fiat Chrysler to merge
Engineering side Mercedes thought they could use their high quality German engineering to bring up Chrysler quality, which was a win win. Yeah I realize why Daimler did it, but Chrysler and their poor quality when they brought Chrysler engineers into the Mercedes world allowed BMW to make significant inroads in that market segment which Mercedes had pretty much held down to a large extent. Rotten apples spoil the bunch and anything Chrysler touches turns to garbage
