GM, Cerberus talks on Chrysler sale intense: Sources
General Motors Corp have intensified talks to buy Chrysler LLC's auto operations from Cerberus Capital Management in a deal that would also involve a transfer of ownership of GMAC, people familiar with the talks said on Friday.
GM is concerned about the risk for costly supplier failures in the event of a merger with Chrysler and intends to seek U.S. government aid to support any deal, according to the sources who were not authorized to discuss the private talks.
