DETROIT—The head of the United Auto Workers denied that a scandal involving union officials influenced the outcome of negotiations with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV. Dennis Williams, the president of the UAW, said in an open letter to union members Friday that collective bargaining agreements reached in 2011 and 2015 were not tainted by allegedly illegal payments made a former Fiat Chrysler executive to senior UAW officials.
