Pillette Road Truck Assembly Plant was a Chrysler automobile factory in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The plant built the Dodge Ram Van and Dodge Ram Wagon from its opening in 1974 to its closing in 2003.[1] Total lifetime production was 2,309,399 units with a peak production of 124,124 in 1984.[2]

Products[edit]

1974-2003 Dodge Ram Van/Dodge Ram Wagon

Closing[edit]

As the full size van market declined, and Chrysler's share of the market shrunk, Chrysler discontinued the Ram Van and Wagon in 2003. Unable to secure a replacement product, the plant closed July 2003, despite a recently constructed paint shop building. The original assembly plant and adjacent paint shop building were subsequently demolished.[3]
