Production of the low-volume Viper sportscar re-started at the Conner Avenue plant in Detroit on 15 June.
Chrysler last week finalised its alliance with Fiat Group.
The plants resuming output are: Sterling Heights, Michigan (Chrysler Sebring and Dodge Avenger cars); Warren, Michigan, truck assembly (Dodge Ram and Dakota trucks); St. Louis North, Fenton, Missouri (Dodge Ram truck); Toledo Supplier Park, Ohio (Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited); Brampton, Ontario, Canada (Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Challenger cars); Windsor, Ontario, Canada (Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans); and Toluca, Mexico (Dodge Journey minivan and Chrysler PT Cruiser car).
Chrysler said the powertrain and stamping facilities that supply these assembly plants would also be operating.
All will be closed for the previously announced two-week summer break in the weeks of 13 and 20 July.
Other restarts will be announced later, the automaker said.
