Member of the Pontiac Tribe

There was a Pontiac Chief and also a Chieftain

Line of Dodges

Dodge models included the Stratus (which means 'layer') and the Caravan (which means a convoy of travellers).

Supreme Chrysler

the Chrysler Imperial, perhaps? Or perhaps the Executive?

Pierce sticker

Their emblem was an arrow

Jeep Horse Whisperer

A horse whisperer (and also a model of Jeep) is a Wrangler

Trusty Isuzu

Both the Isuzu Trooper and Amigo lines would fit this clue

Edsel woe

I thought the entire range were regarded as a failure? In this context, the Citation seems the most probable answer, since it would be a 'woe' in the traffic sense.

Fearless Dodge

Intrepid, surely!

Words that fit with the theme:

Trooper, Chief/Chieftain, Citation, Intrepid, arrow, Wrangler

Words that don't fit:

Imperial/Executive, Caravan

As I see it, there's multiple ways that the blanks can be filled, while still making a legible sentence. One possible solution is:

The Trooper wrote the Chieftain a Citation causing him to visit the Intrepid warrior, who shot an arrow through the traffic ______ heart.

I still think that

Wrangler

ought to fit in there somewhere.
