Chrysler LLC Continues its Legacy of Military Support by Joining "America Supports You"

Participation with "America Supports You" extends decades of Chrysler support to the military

Auburn Hills, Mich., Feb 26, 2008 - Chrysler LLC announces it will join America Supports You (ASY), a Department of Defense program connecting non-profit groups with military men and women and their families. The relationship with America Supports You continues Chrysler’s decades-long legacy of support for the military with its products and through morale-building activities.

"The mission of America Supports You merges perfectly with the legacy Chrysler has of supporting the military and their families for decades," said Bob Nardelli, Chrysler LLC Chairman and CEO. "Beginning with our Jeep® products carrying troops in World War II and continuing with our initiatives today, Chrysler has remained committed to the well-being of the men and women who wear the uniform and their families."

Chrysler recently announced a partnership with the Freedom Calls Foundation, an ASY homefront group. Its mission is to connect troops deployed in Iraq and their families in the United States through video conferencing. Chrysler has opened its video conferencing infrastructure at the Company's Auburn Hills, Mich., headquarters so families can schedule time to talk to their loved ones via video conferencing.

The company also supports ASY member Operation Gratitude in their mission to lift troop morale through the delivery of care packages filled with items from citizens in the U.S. More than 1,800 Jeep dealers across the country opened their dealerships and became "drop zones" for citizens to leave donation items that were then shipped to Operation Gratitude's headquarters in California. Included for the recipients of the 250,000th and 300,000th packages were the keys to brand new Jeep Libertys. Spc. Alfonso Sanchez received the 250,000th package and Spc. Michael Gallagher received the 300,000th package.

"We're so pleased to have Chrysler as part of America Supports You," says Allison Barber, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense. "The company's commitment to support troops overseas and their families here at home highlights its long history of caring for our military members."

As troops transition out of military service, many are looking for career opportunities that provide growth, acceptable wages and stability. Working in conjunction with our 3,600 Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge dealers, Chrysler will soon begin offering military leaving the service the opportunity to be connected to one of our dealerships and considered for employment at a dealership location.

In its 83-year history, Chrysler has supported the military in many ways, including:

  • Production of Jeep vehicles that were the primary transportation of troops beginning prior to World War II (1940 - 1970)

  • Supplying Dodge products to the military

  • Supporting the war effort through production of Sherman tanks (1941)

  • Support of the annual Army-Navy football game

  • Vehicle purchase discount incentive of $500 on Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep products

  • Annual monetary donation to U.S. Marines Toys for Tots program

  • Support towards the construction of the World War II Memorial, Washington, D.C.

  • Financial support of the U.S. Military Academy

  • Financial support of the Air Force Academy

  • Financial support of the U.S. Naval Academy

  • Financial support of the United Service Organizations (USO)

  • Donation of Jeep vehicles to selected Operation Gratitude package recipients

Chrysler and Dodge minivans are committed to safety and security and IIHS tests are one of the many metrics, along with U.S. Federal Government requirements and internal metrics used to continually improve vehicle performance.

All-new 2008 Chrysler Town & Country

The all-new 2008 Chrysler Town & Country offers an all-new contemporary appearance, three different models, three distinct seating and storage systems, unmatched entertainment systems and safety features. The Chrysler Town & Country has 35 new and improved features, including a new 4.0-liter V-6 engine mated to a minivan-first six-speed transaxle, more standard equipment including Electronic Stability Program (ESP). The newest feature is the Swivel 'n Go™ seating system, offering second row seats that swivel 180 degrees to face the third row with a removable table that installs between the two rows, covered storage bins in the floor and the second row, third-row uncovered storage and fold-in-the-floor third-row seating. The 2008 Chrysler Town & Country has received the U.S. Government's highest Five Star crash test rating in both front and side impacts.

The 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan has received the U.S. Government's highest Five Star crash test rating in both front and side impacts. The starting U.S. MSRP of the new 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan is $22,700.

More than 40 Safety and Security Features

The all-new 2008 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan offer more than 40 safety and security features including:

Advanced multi-stage air bags: Uses a low-risk deployment air bag for the front passenger All-speed Traction Control: Senses drive-wheel slip and applies individual brakes to a slipping wheel(s), and can reduce excess engine power until traction is regained

Anti-lock Brake System (ABS): Senses and prevents wheel lockup, offering improved steering control under extreme braking and/or slippery conditions

Auto-reverse sun roof: Advanced sensing system that automatically engages and reverses the sun roof (to the open position)

Auto-reverse windows: Automatically engages and reverses the driver's side window (to the down position)

Brake Assist: In a panic brake condition, the system applies maximum braking power, providing the shortest possible stopping distance

Brake/Park interlock: Prevents an automatic transmission or transaxle from being shifted out of Park unless the brake pedal is applied

Child seat anchor system: LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) is designed to ease installation of compatible aftermarket child seats

Child-protection rear door locks: Disables the rear doors' inside-release handle via a small lever on the door-shut face

Constant-Force Retractors (CFR): Distributes force or load exerted on a seat belt, and then gradually releases the seat-belt webbing in a controlled manner

Crumple zones: Designed to compress during an accident in order to absorb energy from an impact, decreasing transfer of that energy to the occupants

Digressive load-limiting seat belts: Retractor senses a vehicle impact and immediately applies a load to the seat belt in order to properly position the occupant before the full load from the vehicle impact is imparted onto the occupant. It then reduces the seat belt load to moderate forces imparted onto the occupant during the impact event

Door Alert: Periodically activates a chime and illuminates an icon in the instrument cluster to remind the driver if a vehicle is driven without the doors being properly closed

Electronic Stability Program (ESP): Enhances driver control and helps maintain directional stability under all conditions. Provides the greatest benefit in critical driving situations such as turns, and is especially valuable when driving on mixed surface conditions including snow, ice or gravel. If there's a discernible difference between what the driver asks through the steering wheel and the vehicle's path, ESP applies selective braking and throttle input in order to put the vehicle back onto the driver's intended path

Energy-absorbing steering column: The steering column utilizes two hydroformed coaxial tubes that can move relative to each other in order to allow the column to move forward for enhanced energy-absorption during a crash

Enhanced Accident Response System (EARS): Makes it easier for emergency personnel to see and reach occupants in the event of an accident by turning on the interior lighting and unlocking the doors after air bag deployment. Also shuts off the flow of fuel to the engine

Head rests in all positions: Each seating position, including Swivel 'n Go™ and third-row middle seat, utilize head restraints

Height-adjustable front seat belts: Allows occupants to raise and lower the shoulder belt. Encourages seat belt usage by offering a comfortable fit

High-intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps: Provide approximately three times the light output of conventional reflector lamps for improved nighttime illumination

HomeLink universal home security system transceiver: Stores three separate transmitter radio-frequency codes to operate garage-door openers, security gates, security lighting or other radio-controlled devices

Integrated child booster seats: Allow children up to 4-foot 9-inches tall and between 48 and 85 pounds to sit in the adult-belted zone and are available with the Swivel 'n Go™ seating system Integrated Child Seats: Designed for children at least one year old, between 22 and 50 pounds and are no more than 47 inches tall. Seats are conveniently designed within an available second-row bench seat Interior head-impact protection: Interior pillars above the beltline and instrument panel, including areas around windshield and rear window headers, roof and side-rail structures, and shoulder belt turning loops specifically designed to limit head-impact force

Keyless ignition system: A fob with integrated key and a wireless ignition node with integral ignition switch replace the metal key. The double-sided integrated key is inserted into the ignition switch to start the vehicle. The fob also contains the Remote Keyless Entry and a removable valet key

Knee bolsters: The lower instrument panel and the glovebox door are designed to properly position the occupant, enabling air bags to work effectively

Occupant Resistant Controller (ORC) with rollover sensor: Determines the appropriate output for the multi-stage driver and low-risk front-passenger deployment air bags, along with side air bag curtains during a rollover event

ParkSense® Rear Park Assist System: Assists at low speeds in Reverse to detect stationary objects. Consists of visible (interior lights seen with rearview mirror) and audible warnings for the driver ParkView™ Rear Back-up Camera: Provides a wide-angle view of the area immediately behind the vehicle, giving the driver greater peace of mind before backing up. Also aids in lining up a trailer to the vehicle's trailer hitch, when so equipped. The image automatically displays on the navigation screen when the transmission is shifted into Reverse

Power-adjustable pedals: Allows brake and accelerator pedals to move toward or away from the driver in order to help achieve a safe and comfortable seating position for improved vehicle control

Power liftgate with obstacle detection: Detects obstacles in the path of a closing power liftgate and will automatically stop and reverse the power-closing operation

Power sliding passenger doors with obstacle detection: Detects obstacles in the path of a closing power sliding door and will automatically stop and reverse the power-closing operation

Rearview interior conversation mirror: A convex mirror located in the overhead console above the inside rear-view mirror allows the driver to see rear-seat occupants while looking forward

Remote Keyless Entry: Locks and unlocks doors, and turns on interior lamps. If the vehicle is equipped with a vehicle-theft security alarm, the remote also arms and disarms that system

Remote start: Conveniently starts the engine from outside the vehicle by using the fob while maintaining vehicle security

Safety cage body structure: Key structural enablers help keep the passenger compartment intact during a crash

Seat-belt pretensioners: During a collision, impact sensors initiate the front seat-belt pretensioners to immediately remove slack, thereby reducing the forward movement of the occupants' heads and torsos

Sentry Key® engine immobilizer: Utilizes an engine key that has an embedded transponder with a preprogrammed security code to discourage vehicle theft. When the key is inserted into the ignition, the controller sends a random number to the transponder and the engine is allowed to start. If an incorrect key is used, the engine will shut off after only a few seconds

Side impact door beams: Add extra protection in the event of a side impact

Sliding door alert system: Warns other drivers by flashing the exterior lamps when passengers are entering or exiting the vehicle

Supplemental side-curtain air bags: Extends protection to all outboard front- and rear-seat passengers, including third-row outboard passengers. Each side air bag has its own impact sensor that autonomously triggers the air bag on the side where the impact occurs

Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM): Informs occupants when tire pressure is too low. Pressure-sensor modules within the valve stems of all four road wheels send continuous radio-frequency signals to a receiver and the system

Three-point lap shoulder seatbelts: All seating positions, including Swivel 'n Go™ and third-row middle seat, utilize three-point seatbelts

UConnect® Hands-free Communication System: Uses Bluetooth® technology to provide voice-controlled wireless communication between the occupants' compatible mobile phone and the vehicle's onboard receiver. The hands-free option promotes safety, freedom, value and flexibility

Chrysler Brand

Chrysler is the seventh largest brand in the U.S. automotive market. The brand's succession of innovative products continues to solidify Chrysler's standing as the leader in design, agile performance and innovative technology built around a customer's needs, all at an extraordinary value.
