The 31 Red Flags
- Part 2
This rule is effective January 1, 2008 and must be
implemented within the dealership by November 1, 2008. So, what exactly
are these Red Flags?
The feds identified these red flags as potential indicators of identity
theft. You should consider addressing these potential indicators when
you develop your program. Here is part 2 of the list:
Personal Information
8. Personal information provided is inconsistent when compared
against external information sources. For example:
a. The address does not match any address in the consumer report.
b. The Social Security Number (SSN) has not been issued, or is listed on
the Social Security Administration's Death Master File.
9. Personal information provided is internally inconsistent. For
example, there is a lack of correlation between the SSN range and date
of birth.
10. Personal information provided is associated with known fraudulent
activity. For example:
a. The address on an application is the same as the address provided on
a fraudulent application.
b. The phone number on an application is the same as the number provided
on a fraudulent application.
11. Personal information provided is of a type commonly associated with
fraudulent activity. For example:
a. The address on an application is fictitious, a mail drop, or prison.
b. The phone number is invalid, or is associated with a pager or
answering service.
12. The address, SSN, or home or cell phone number provided is the same
as that submitted by other persons opening an account or other
customers.
13. The person opening the account or the customer fails to provide all
required information on an application.
14. Personal information provided is not consistent with information
that is on file.
15. The person opening the account or the customer cannot provide
authenticating information beyond that which generally would be
available from a wallet or consumer report.
Address Changes
16. Shortly following the notice of a change of address for an
account, the institution or creditor receives a request for new,
additional or replacement checks, convenience checks, cards, or cell
phone, or for the addition of authorized users on the account.
17. Mail sent to the customer is returned as undeliverable although
transactions continue to be conducted in connection with the customer's
account.

and now will focus more on growth, profits and environmentally friendly
vehicles, according to the annual Auto Executive Survey by KPMG

with 113 senior executives at vehicle manufacturers and suppliers
worldwide. "Many executives in our survey are seeing the light at the
end of the tunnel," Daron Gifford, national automotive industry leader
for KPMG, an international audit, tax and advisory firm, tells the

Chrysler's Fuel-efficient HEMI(R) Hybrid to
Power All-New Dodge Ram
Chrysler LLC added to its list of fuel efficient powertrain offerings
for the all-new Dodge Ram 1500 pickup today, announcing that the
company's advanced two-mode hybrid will join the light-duty Dodge Ram
powertrain lineup for 2010.
The Dodge Ram HEMI(R) Hybrid joins the Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango
in the Chrysler hybrid vehicle lineup. Last year, the company also
announced that it would introduce a Cummins turbodiesel engine after
2009 for the Dodge Ram 1500. The engine will meet 50- state emissions
standards, and will deliver a 30-percent fuel economy improvement.
"Dodge Ram is known for capability, utility and performance," said Frank
Klegon, Executive Vice President - Product Development, Chrysler LLC.
"The addition of hybrid and diesel powertrains to our all-new Dodge Ram
1500 lineup is sure to attract an array of new customers looking for the
ultimate combination of full-size pickup fuel efficiency, performance
and capability."
The hybrid and diesel offerings for Dodge Ram are in addition to three
gasoline powertrain options:
-- An all-new 5.7-liter HEMI V-8, that delivers a 4 percent increase in
fuel economy for 2009 while producing 380 horsepower and 404 lb.-ft. of
torque
-- A new for 2008 4.7-liter flex-fuel V-8, that resulted in an increase
in fuel economy while producing 310 horsepower and 330 lb.-ft. of torque
-- A 3.7-liter V-6 that generates 215 horsepower and 235 lb.-ft. of
torque
The renowned HEMI powerplant, in hybrid form, will continue to feature
Chrysler's Multi-displacement System (MDS), which allows the engine to
seamlessly alternate between four-cylinder mode when less power is
needed and V-8 mode when more power is in demand. The two-mode hybrid
system provides assistance from electric motors allowing the HEMI V-8 to
remain in four- cylinder mode more often than without a hybrid
powertrain, improving overall fuel economy.
The Advanced Two-mode Hybrid System
Chrysler's advanced, state-of-the-art two-mode full hybrid system -
developed in partnership with General Motors, Mercedes-Benz and The BMW
Group - integrates proven automatic-transmission technology with a
patented hybrid- electric drive system to deliver the world's first
two-mode full hybrid.
As a result of low- and high-speed electrically variable transmission (EVT)
modes, the system is defined as a "two-mode hybrid." In addition, the
sophisticated fuel-saving system incorporates four fixed-gear ratios for
high efficiency and power-handling capabilities. During the two EVT
modes, the system can use the electric motors to improve fuel economy,
acceleration, and for regenerative braking to utilize energy that would
normally be lost during braking or deceleration. The energy is stored in
the batteries for later use. The system's two modes are optimized for
city and highway driving.
