The choice bucks the union's tradition of choosing the strongest company among Fiat Chrysler, General Motors Co or Ford Motor Co to extract the best terms for its 140,000 members, a process known as pattern bargaining. This year's dynamics were unusual because Fiat Chrysler laid bare its weaknesses and has been vocal about the need for a merger partner.
