Hey hockey kids - here's your chance to win $10,000 for your team and a 2011 Gr Caravan!

We are proud to announce the launch of the 2010 Dodge Caravan Kids minor hockey sponsorship program. As part of our sponsorship, Chrysler Canada will give away a 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan to one lucky winner and make a $10,000 donation toward the minor hockey association of their choice. Consumers can enter the contest by visiting www.dodgecaravankids.ca/win.
Each entrant will be given the opportunity to improve their odds of winning by taking a test-drive.
All you have to do is follow these four easy steps:
1. Provide the email address that you would like your TEST-DRIVE CERTIFICATE sent to.
2. Print and bring your TEST-DRIVE CERTIFICATE (emailed to the address you enter above) to Ottawa Dodge at 900 St Laurent Blvd (directions here) and test-drive a Dodge Grand Caravan (or any other Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, or Ram vehicle).
3. Have your sales consultant provide you with the DEALER CODE (write this in the appropriate field on your TEST-DRIVE CERTIFICATE).
4. Log back on to www.dodgecaravankids.ca/win, click on VALIDATE YOUR TEST DRIVE and fill out the TEST-DRIVE REDEMPTION FORM with the information from your TEST-DRIVE CERTIFICATE.
Once the validation process is complete, entrants will receive 25 additional ballots in the grand prize draw.
We anticipate 1,500 teams of 15 players each to be wearing jerseys adorned with our Dodge Caravan Kids logo this season. This is the fifth year for the Dodge Caravan Kids sponsorship program.

Chrysler Pentastar Engine Focuses on Customer Needs

Chrysler Pentastar Engine Focuses on Customer Needs: "Customers expect and deserve consistent quality. While Chrysler Group’s corporate quality reputation hasn’t been where it should be in recent years – that is definitely changing. Take the new Pentastar V-6 engine as an example.

In December, Ward’s AutoWorld named the Pentastar engine one of the 10 best for 2010: “The Pentastar is the best modern engine Chrysler has produced.”

Awards like that are great – in fact it was a target for the engineering team – but customer feedback is more important."
