Fiat Chrysler Accused of Falsifying Sales
Recently, Fiat Chrysler was accused of falsifying sales in the United States. This situation is a perfect example of a time when an auto dealership needed an automotive expert.
Specifically, two Fiat Chrysler dealerships in Chicago filed a civil racketeering suit against Fiat Chrysler due to the company allegedly offering monetary compensation to dealerships that claimed unsold vehicles as sold. According to Automotive News, the two dealerships claimed that “FCA conspired with certain dealers to inflate the automaker’s monthly U.S. sales reports. The company has posted 69 consecutive monthly year-over-year gains after recovering from its U.S.-steered bankruptcy.”
