What does Renault bring to the table in a merger with Fiat Chrysler? I wasn't for Fiat, but have changed my mind on them as they seem to have continued their racing heritage by bringing us the Demons and Hellcats.

Renault has world wide distribution. Deep pockets and extensive manufacturing network. But will they continue to produce a quality product?

My wife owns a Renault fluence 2014 and let me tell you what do they bring, CRAP, useless cars, quality problems, bad engines and transmissions bad paint jobs, terrible customers service, the crankshaft seal fail at 45000 km and the dealer told us it was our fault, what ? how does a seal of this importance fail so soon, anyway, this week the car show in the screen this message "possible engine break stop immediately " and of course the engine stop leaving my wife in the middle of the traffic, it turns out that the wire harness from the spark plug coils to the computer have " mini cracks" and the harness must be changed or... use a plastic belt to tight up the bulk conector, a 2 cent repair and my wife in panic, POS cars that's what they are, including the F1 engines and cars too.

NO, AND THEY NEVER PRODUCE A GOOD CAR EVER,
My younger brother had to drive my dad's old Renault in the late 60's and early 70's when he started driving. He said it was just a step above walking. He would ride a bicycle to school rather than drive it.
Just my opinion, I think they make hideously-ugly cars.

I dont think we are going to have much left in the country in the way of car manufacturing in 10 years.
My wife bought a Nissan Rogue in 2013. A friend who is a technician there told her to get one that was built in Japan if she wanted a good one. A certain digit in the VIN # was a J. She did that and it's been trouble free.
When I Was 10 years old a neighbor invited me to go with them and their grandson
(same age) to Cape Cod. They drove a 59? Dauphine 5 hours ride, it was tight.
Trump is getting a lot of our industries back, maybe the trend will continue.

And, it's one of the biggest manufacturer of cars in the world ( sadly).
