You can read the actual text of Chrysler's bankruptcy filing on the WSJ web site, here. There's also a long (117p) affidavit here. It's fascinating, in a macabre look-a-dead-body sort of way.
One interesting part is how much Chrysler owes the top unsecured (no collateral) creditors:
#1 Ohio Module Manufacturing Co.: $70.3 million (chassis assembly)There are a few companies on here which are a little surprising. You expect parts suppliers and steel companies, but a German spare parts distributor? Wackenhut? Tata?
#2 BBDO: $58 million (marketing)
#3 Johnson Controls: $50.3 million (parts)
#4 Continental Automotive: $47 million (parts)
also #29 Continental-Teves: $7.4 million,
Continental Automotive Guadalajara: $5.5 million
#5 Cummins: $44 million (engines)
