Possible economic ripples of Greece's woes: borrowing rates, auto sales

"Greek issues are not good for Fiat, and therefore Chrysler, in terms of the ability to raise large sums of capital they need for investment in multiple nameplates over the next few years," said Taylor, who is also traveling in Europe.
