On another forum,a member has been looking at changing their Jeep. Traders weren't interested in it as a park ex. They're not worth anything as a part ex,they can't shift them on afterwards. Bad news for those wanting to change to another vehicle to tow with. -
I was just reading that Reuters article and Googled the CEO and found this bit from back when the take over occured. "Consumer groups and individuals with product-related lawsuits also contested a condition of the Chrysler sale that would release the company from product liability claims related to vehicles it sold before the asset sale to Fiat. Compensation for such claims would have to come from the parts of the company not being sold to Fiat. But those assets have limited value and it's unlikely there will be anything to pay out".

JanetBrown Thanks for sharing the info.If they are reviewing it and VOSA is too,maybe they'll sort it,maybe.

Thanks for the update. Every day seems to raise new questions. There are many sites online (and fitting stores) one could order a towbar from. But are they even aware of this, are they selling towbars that aren't approved? Not a question to above, just thinking out loud really.

Hi all, I'm also new. Thanks for posting the picture. It's interesting to see. Doesn't look as good for protection as some towbars. I emailed vosa in April. Only because I had been looking on 'net for a new towbar and found references to this,at the time,just in the US. So they said they were aware of it and would issue a recall if and when required. Once I recently heard most towbars couldn't be used I emailed them again. They replied and said they were currently collating information about the problems and would respond in due course. A phone call might divulge more though.
