Seventy-six percent of customers cite rising gas prices as "top
concern" Auburn Hills, Mich. - In response to direct customer feedback
citing the prospect of rising gas prices as a top concern, Chrysler
LLC today announces its own economic stimulus package: an exclusive
gas price protection policy that eliminates the risk of further spikes
in fuel prices. With the U.S. purchase of eligible Chrysler, Jeep and
Dodge vehicles, customers can enroll in the "Let's Refuel America"
program and receive a gas card that immediately lowers their gas price
to $2.99 a gallon, and keeps it there for three years. The offer is
available at 3,521 U.S. Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge dealerships through
June 2, 2008, and is available on vehicles ranging from popular new
compacts, crossovers and minivans to full-size diesel-powered pickup
trucks.

"Today we are proud to introduce an unprecedented program to help put
customers' minds at ease and do something to help working people who
are worried about the volatility of fuel prices and vehicle cost of
ownership," said Jim Press, Vice-Chairman and President, Chrysler LLC.
"The Let's Refuel America Price Guarantee puts money in your pocket
today, and allows our customers to better manage their fuel expenses.
And you can't get it anywhere else besides a Chrysler, Jeep or Dodge
dealership."

The Let's Refuel America program offers consumers a combination of the
fuel price protection program and additional bonus cash up to $3,000
on available vehicles, including Chrysler PT Cruiser, Dodge Charger,
Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Dakota and Dodge Ram.

The Let's Refuel America gas card program works when a customer

the program in lieu of other available incentives. The customer is

providing their required personal information via the dedicated web
