FCA seeks dismissal of Ill. dealer suit alleging inflated sales

Fiat Chrysler dealers, members of the ubiquitous and litigious Napleton group, in Illinois and Florida sued the manufacturer in January, alleging that it inflated sales figures by paying dealers to report cars as sold at the end of the month - in legal terms, they allege corporate racketeering. Bonuses were funneled to conspiring dealers, as reported here by Bloomberg. FCA are seeking the dismissal of the claim, Automotive News reports.

Napleton’s Arlington Heights Motors Inc. v. FCA US LLC, formerly known as Chrysler Group Realty Company LLC, 16-cv-00403, U.S. District Court, Northern District of Illinois (Chicago).
