After initially indicating that terminated dealers would be reinstated through the federally-mandated arbitration procedure or not at all [see blog post: Chrysler and GM Take Different Approaches to Dealer Arbitration], Chrysler now says that it will offer to reinstate 50 of the 789 dealerships it terminated last year. The auto manufacturer also indicated that there may be more to come when, in a statement issued on March 26, it said “discussions to find mutually beneficial alternatives to arbitration with other dealers are under way.” For more on Chrysler’s changing arbitration posture, see CNN article dated March 3, 2010.
