...Oh No.

I remember looking back long ago at Chery's auto lineup.
I was humoured to find that their flagship model boasts "a brake fluid level warning system".
Sheesh. I honestly can't imagine a Chery subcompact.

Coming from a Chinese person...this is hilarious!

But I bet China makes cars better quality than Chrysler. Chrysler is bottom of the chain nowadays. I've sat in the Chrysler 300/300C and the Aspen they are horrific!. Maybe even the plastics of Chery Automobiles are better.

It is cheaper labour I believe and with a struggling company finance is the major thing to keep a business going. Who knows I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that their sub-compact cars will be of decent quality. Definitely not the greatest but perhaps better than what the Chrysler plants can build.
