"Ths economic crisis has caused enormous disruption in the auto but with it has come the opportunitg for us to reinventour business. We are going to do it once and do it The court-supervised process we are pursuing provides us with powerfuk tools to accelerate and complete our as well as strong safeguards for our customers and our he said.
