Heard he stepped down last week (week before maybe)...knew he was in failing health...didn't know it was that bad. Sad...

From an FCA perspective, President of Jeep/Ram took his spot. As a new owner of an Abarth 124 Spider, I hope he turns things around.

Rip. Wow, I thought he would recover. With his passing the fate of FCA is doomed.

Happened so fast i could not believe it-first shoulder surgery which most probably assumed was rotater cuff, then complications, stepping down, then gone. Guy was a self-described workaholic, smoked up until last year, 7 days a week action.
Niel Young said "it's better to burn out then fade-away" and this guy sure did. He will be missed.

I liked his ambition, wish he was able to stick around for much longer...R.I.P
