Jeep Liberty Plant Shutdown and Successor
Chrysler Group LLC announced in June, 2012 that the Toledo North Assembly Plant in Toledo, Ohio, where the Liberty is manufactured, will shut down on August 21, 2012 temporarily in order to prepare for the launch of a replacement or redesigned Jeep vehicle, most likely being called the Jeep Liberty or the Jeep Cherokee. Production will start in late 2013, following a possible introduction of the new Liberty replacement at the 2013 North American International Auto Show on Detroit, Michigan in January 2013. The final 2012 Liberties were produced on August 16, 2012 as 2012 models in the U.S. and as 2013 models in Mexico. The Liberty replacement will most likely be based on the platform of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta and the Dodge Dart, both of which were introduced in recent years.

Famous quotes containing the words liberty, plant and/or successor:
“Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“You have waited, you always wait, you dumb, beautiful ministers,
We receive you with free sense at last, and are insatiate
hence-forward,
Not you any more shall be able to foil us, or withhold yourselves
from us,
We use you, and do not cast you aside—we plant you permanently within us,
We fathom you not—we love you—there is perfection in you also,
You furnish your parts, toward eternity,
Great or small, you furnish your parts toward the soul.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“The successor to politics will be propaganda. Propaganda, not in the sense of a message or ideology, but as the impact of the whole technology of the times.”
—Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
