After five years of fighting and a U.S. appeals court ruling, four former Chrysler dealerships could have a shot at opening their doors once more.
Automotive News reports three Detroit area dealerships — Livonia Chrysler Jeep Inc., Fox Hills Chrysler Jeep and Village Chrysler Jeep — and one based in Las Vegas — Jim Marsh Chrysler Jeep — could reopen after the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found that a federal arbitration law allowing 789 dealers to fight against closure by Chrysler overruled state laws allowing local dealers to legally fight against nearby competitors from opening doors.
The court added the victory wasn't an unconditional reinstatement, yet "should meaningfully facilitate incorporation of prevailing dealerships back into the network." FCA US issued a statement praising the district court for its decision, and is reviewing legal options to take regarding the four dealerships.
