“Customers want affordability” Also $100,000k Jeep Wagoner “Affordability” my ass
funny how stellantis owns every single brand I would never, ever possibly spend my own money on
I'm a truck driver. No lie, 80% of the vehicles I see broken down on the side of the road are made by Stellantis. I counted.
CEOs thinking of short-term goals only, then running away with millions after ruining the company. Disgusting.
A Grand Wagoneer high trim hitting $110K is wild just get a Porsche at that point
A conglomerate of 6 barely functioning companies. Sounds like a great business plan
Prioritizing shareholders is how you kill any good business.
Dealer tech here. This is a surprisingly good video. Stellantis has cost-cut the entire US market. They fired engineers, plant workers, and made suppliers go somewhere else. We have insanely overpriced, unreliable vehicles, built by people who no longer care as they're being let go left and right. The engineers have been almost completely replaced by low cost country workers who have a fraction of the US engineering experience and it shows on our products. Do an investigation into all the problems with the Wrangler 4XE if you want to see how far this rabbit hole goes. Total piles of shit being sold for 60k+.
They put shareholders first and the paying customers last. Who on earth would pay $70k+ for an SUV???
When a Chrysler employee says we’re not building them like we used to they’ve got a horrendous problem. Because the vehicles they used to build were the lowest quality in the market. And they are building LOWER quality now? No more bailouts.
When a CEO escapes in a suitcase you know that he will be a great teacher for quaity and professionalism 😝
They killed themselves by forgetting who was their base consumer and cutting corners everywhere
At the age of 62 I've watch this same thing happen multiple times. Black & Decker, Porter Cable, Senco nail guns, Ford in the 70s and 80s. A group of very wealthy investors purchase a strong company with a long history of quality. They come in slash wages, huge lay offs while drastically raising prices, and cutting corners wherever they can, all the time making huge profits for a select group of investors. Once they've bled the company dry, they dump it and move on to the next.
“We’re a Jeep family” translates to “I did zero research and overpaid for a brand identity”
100k? I need at least 2 bedrooms, and 2 bathroom
0:48 unlike Toyota, where supposedly any worker on the assembly line can stop the production line if they detect a defect or abnormality
When engineers are running Detroit they did good, next they replaced them with MBA, this is what happend
Let's just be real.... Dodge, Chrysler & Jeep have made subpar vehicles for several decades. They weren't always like this (and not all of them), but there was a reason they were cheaper. This just makes it even worse.
Jeep should have stayed as an affordable basic off-road vehicle without all the bells and whistles
