No they don't. It used to be Mercedes Benz, Benz split from Mercedes and merged with Daimler, which was then purchased by Chrysler. Chrysler was just recently purchased by a private equity firm along with all of it's affiliates, dodge,jeep,eagle,mitsubishi,etc. But mercedes is still a totally separate manufacturer.
No they don't. In 1998 Mercedes Benz (Daimler Benz) bought Chrysler. At the time Mercedes was losing money while Chrysler was hugely profitable and neither had great quality. This created a company called Daimler Chrysler.
They used the Chrysler profits to fix Mercedes while running Chrysler into the ground by failing to develop any good cars in case the SUV/truck bubble burst. Eventually Chrysler struggled and was losing money and Mercedes was profitable and had improved quality.
Mercedes sold 80.1% of Chyrsler to Cerberious while keeping 19.9% in 2007. Unfortunately for Mercedes they spent around $35 billion to buy them and only got about $5 billion back when they sold them.
Daimler Chrysler no longer exists. Chrysler is owned by the Cerberus Corporation. It is a privately held company. Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge are all owned by them.
Daimler sold their share of dodge out a long time ago and its now under new owners,they still use the name but not for long,when the deal was in affect it was Daimler that bought a part of chrysler out, not chrysler buying Daimler out,good luck.
Negative, Chrysler is its own company now. Chrysler LLC. They had merged with Daimler in 1998, but Daimler sold Chrysler to a group of investers called Cerberus.
Chrysler is the parent Company to Dodge, Jeep, GEM car and prev Plymouth...
Diamler/Mercedes is i think part owner of Chrysler Corp these days... and all together they have made major changes to the vehicles comming out these days...
"example" the Chrylser 300, Dodge Charger/challenger are built off of the Mercedes [E] class sedan/paltform...

Chrysler owns Dodge, Jeep, Plymouth, and some of Mitsubishi.
Mercedes, which owns Maybach and Smart, has joined with Chryler.
They Merged.
It is now called Daimler Chrysler.
It's the other way around...
