Should GM, or any other company acquire Chrysler, licensing will continue. After all, its a cheap, labour-free source of income. Not much mind you, but it is income and it does get the company name out there. And it reinforces their claim on the names, parts, etc. being licensed. Anf those rights are worth money, too.
By the way, GM lead the way in licensing the use of brand logos and the reproduction of parts. The rules Chrysler has are pretty much the rules GM laid down twenty years ago.

My thought is GM could turn around and say, well we will manufacture these items ourselves, not grant licensing and then "forget" about producing the parts. I think this would be a worst case scenario.
