That has nothing to do with Ram vs Chrysler/Dodge quality. That is a specific vehicle. And you are correct, the quality of the 200 was not that good relative to its competitors. There is a reason that vehicle was dropped.
Our 200 was one of the best cars we have owned and never had a single warranty claim in the three years we owned it.
The reason the 200, Patriot and the Dart were phased out is because Sergio will not build a new plant, anywhere! If someone is telling you different I would love to see some facts and not he said she said BS.
The Ram 1500 is going to the Sterling Heights plant (the old 200 plant) to be followed by the HD trucks. The Warren plant will be rebuilt and retooled to build the new Jeep Wagoner and over flow for the trucks. BTW the Saltillo Assembly Plant will still build the HD truck over flow until 2020 when a new product will be put in there.
The Jeep Cherokee is going to the Belvedere plant (the old Patriot, Compass and the Dart plant) to make room in Toledo to build the new Jeep pickup.
Look to see FCA bring back small and midsize cars sometime around 2020/2022 from what is going around the rumor mill. Most likely Fiat based and built in Mexico.
