Chrysler LLC's three brands each scored below average in a benchmark annual survey of new-vehicle quality, signaling that owner Cerberus Capital Management LP has its work cut out to improve the auto maker's image.
Chrysler's iconic Jeep brand ranked last in the latest survey, with 167 problems per 100 vehicles, six more than last year. Chrysler's Dodge brand was 28th, with 141 problems, followed by Chrysler, with 142. The industry average was 118 problems per 100 vehicles.
Chrysler, which was purchased by Cerberus in August, is attempting to make changes. It created a consumer advisory board and revamped interiors on some of its products.
