when you make a krappy car at the level of kia and hyundai but you think you can charge premium to the level of mercedes and bmw your customers will let you know
@piclepiclopiclu We have four(4) Hyundai's in our family, and have no issues. We go for the scheduled checkups and maintenance, and have had no issues whatsoever. One of our Hyundai's is a 2012 (now 12 yrs old).
Been coming for a long time. Stellantis has their head up their A$$ for a long time. Even if Jeep lowered its priced 50% overnight, they wouldn't sell. Add Dealer add ons and stupid stuff like 3 year dent protection and paint protection, $700 dollars for scotch guarding the interior, customers have wised up and are tired of getting screwed.
You’re asking $60,000 for a $30,000 truck. Of course nobody was going to buy it!!! And there’s no V8 option?! The Stallantis bored of Directors an Carlos Tavares needs to go. Not at the beginning of 2026, he needs to go NOW!!! or they need to split the company, a CEO (that’s not Carlos Tavares) to run the American brands and a CEO to run the European ones. Because the way they’re doing things now is not working! and don’t think that these are the last cuts, I guarantee you the wrangler line is next.🤔
If you brought the price down to something reasonable, you might have better sales. But greedy corporate owners insist on high prices for those high profits.
They got dependent on the high profitability of full-sized pickups and SUVs loaded with options and didn't have much of an alternative when consumers realized the high-priced vehicles were out of reach.
@@steven4315If they're recording record profits, then why is everyone complaining nothing is selling because it's"too expensive" and "Junk"? Doesn't make sense to me 🤷♂️
@@ToledoPitbull Some auto makers are doing well. Look up days of supply. Stellantis is in real trouble and likely to fold but that's because of mismanagement by Europeans. GM is doing quite well.
I just wanted Stellantis Employees to know that myself and several others have tried to support you and your products and The Dealership’s are standing in our way of making purchases.They are adding add on’s of up to $10,000 to each vehicle that Cannot be verified along with Thousands of dollars in additional administrative fee’s,donation’s,tax’s making Stellantis products unobtainable to the general public.The Jeep is wanted wasn’t high end it was a Sport S and in all three dealerships I visited the price was over $100,000 .
Why are TV’s, electronics, and so many other things gotten much better and cheaper over the decades, while cars and trucks gone up 800 percent? Pure greed from the manufacturers and dealers and service department
When you push cars people Don’t want and you have crazy prices you run into Stuff like this sensationalizing of EV’s when the majority of the consumers in the US could care less about it
Professor sounds lost...USA largest market lets make vehicles for abroad.......smaller vehicle...not what market is saying.....stellantis probably listen to analysts like this...and so here we are....
Well, FCA/STELLANIS brought this on themselves...elimate the top selling vehicles in their lineup ( challenger and charger), which were 90% of their sales...go on strike and demand more wages...and their vehicles aren't selling due to 30-40% mark up. Hope they bring back Tim and V8's. Soon as they fell into the EV bull***t, their company was toilet bound.
Stellantis vehicles are way over priced for what one gets in return. Not everyone is willing to spend $40k plus on something that is such a poor investment. The government has already bailed Stellantis to the tune of 1 billion
The average person makes 45k a year? You can not expect people to over extend themselves financially for anything anymore in this economy. It’s all brands that are over priced and high inflation resulting in everyone looking carefully at prices and they are all way to high for a middle class style vehicle! Smart money usually buys slightly used n certified, but even those are way over priced and comes way to close to brand new prices making it not worth the buy as well. Follow the economy spending trend not the greed for more profit! Sad it really come to this. For every action there is a reaction! If prices don’t come down drastically at dealerships they will soon vanish. Start allowing buying direct and stop the foolishness with overpriced vehicles due to be add ons.
How is this Trump's fault? I'm confused! 🤔 Kamaltoe Harris and Joe Binladen have been in the oval office the past 4 years...at least as far as I'm aware of...maybe I caught Joementia! Lmfao! 😂🤣😂 Did I miss something? Who's hand do I shake? God save the queen man! 😂🤣😂
Quit tweekin! Trump ain't even in office yet! Tariffs haven't been implemented yet! But when they are just watch the auto industry boom back in America! Tariffs worked for America for over 100 years. Free trade not even 75. Get educated Re-Re!
My extended warranty just paid for a $800 compressor (air-conditioned), labor and car rental for one day on my 2011 Nissan Rogue with 215,000 miles. I've had over $4 thousands of work done using this warranty which I purchased through the dealership (3rd Party-I Paid $1,000). Every time I bring it in the dealership for an oil-change, they look for things knowing full well, I don't have to pay for it. I value my car more than a new Jeep.
iv had my truck for 10 years now put another transmission in it,,,,motor still good 275,000km diesel ram bought new in 2015...6 speed manual transmission...still good i sopose...im easy on her no rust..il keep it as long as i can...hope economy turns around,,soon,,,take care out there folks..
Trump did say Kamaltoe and Joe Binladen would destroy the auto industry and they did! But don't you worry your wittle head. He'll bring the auto industry back!
Does the Union have bumping provisions ? Let's say someone works the shift that will experience layoffs, but they have a lot of seniority, can they bump someone off their job on another shift with less seniority ?
I miss the days when a brand new car was less than $10,000...nowadays a new car starts around $26,000. Remember when Henry Ford built automobiles that the factory workers themselves can afford?
The way for Stellantis to boost sales is to build better vehicles worth the price tag they're slapping on these things. People would probably be willing to pay the prices they're asking if customers knew that they wouldn't end up knowing the names of all the service techs at their local CDJR service center.
There is a demand for a small quality pickup truck without incorporating $20,000.00 worth of options ! Examples , Ford Maverick pickups Toyota Stout pickups
Tariffs worked perfectly for the US up until 1942 when we started to promote "free trade." Free trade lasted how long before our economy died? Somewhere around 75 years where as tariffs worked for the US for well over 100 years. Come on people! Let's educate ourselves please!
All those years people that longed for a Jeep pickup...& sadly when they got it, it didn't really set the market alight. Perhaps they should have developed a single cab variant & also a basic, tough no-nonsense utility work truck edition for tradesmen & commercial fleet buyers.
Overpriced Stellantis junk. Nobody can afford to buy or even maintain those vehicles which come standard with engine, transmission and electrical issues straight from the factory. A nightmare to own out of warranty in the long run.
Regardless of Who is responsible and to what extent, the Nation is entering a Recession. Businesses having to refinance debt at significantly higher interest rate, or closing if they can't find a buyer, will not help.
There was supposed to be a new Dakota as a small truck. It never materialized. Might have helped when sales of high-priced, full-sized trucks dropped off.
Best news I have heard all day. The prices are simply ridiculous and this says that the consumers are fed up with the super high prices. Love it.😅 The gladiators are pretty ugly no matter how reliable they are.
Exactly! They voted for such a high increase in pay and other benefits during the strike Stellantis can't afford to pay them now because no one's buying new vehicles because Kamaltoe and Joe Binladen single handedly killed the auto industry!
Trump is going to bring back the auto industry. Kamaltoe and Joe Binladen caused this along with Union greed! What did yall expect to happen with the increase in all yalls wages? If they're not selling vehicles, they can't pay employees. When a company can't afford to pay employees, they lay people off. It's that simple.
$150K Jeeps are not helping.
Overpriced junk and the CEO gets to keep his job.
Tavares has really ruined the quality at Jeep.
@@marcbjorg4823
No he hasn't.
He just inherited a brand that's be going steady downhill since the 2008 recession and even before!
when you make a krappy car at the level of kia and hyundai but you think you can charge premium to the level of mercedes and bmw your customers will let you know
Yeah, and dude’s talking about making another truck? Completely clueless that nobody wants Stellantis? Hilarious
Actually Kia/Hyundai (and Genesis, their luxury brand) are far more reliable than the entirety of the Stellantis offerings.
Kias are way more reliable than ever before, best bang for your buck, 150k on my forte with no issues but regular maintenance..
I think you just insulted Kia and Hyundai comparing them to Chrysler!
@piclepiclopiclu We have four(4) Hyundai's in our family, and have no issues. We go for the scheduled checkups and maintenance, and have had no issues whatsoever. One of our Hyundai's is a 2012 (now 12 yrs old).
This was expected. Drastic price increases for poor quality vehicles. Ford will face the same issue next year.
Greed is good 🤔 Until it's not 😒 They're selling vehicles at 2024 prices, but we're paying for it with incomes from 20 years ago 🤨
Wow, suddenly all these shut downs.
Been coming for a long time. Stellantis has their head up their A$$ for a long time. Even if Jeep lowered its priced 50% overnight, they wouldn't sell. Add Dealer add ons and stupid stuff like 3 year dent protection and paint protection, $700 dollars for scotch guarding the interior, customers have wised up and are tired of getting screwed.
They are probably the only company willing to shut down rather than make their products cheaper
But that's the problem. Their vehicles ARE cheap. AND expensive.
Two words: SHAUN FAIN
$150,000 for a jeep? No thanks. A toyota landcruiser is a far better buy
You’re asking $60,000 for a $30,000 truck. Of course nobody was going to buy it!!! And there’s no V8 option?! The Stallantis bored of Directors an Carlos Tavares needs to go.

Actually Ford is next. No one is buying Broncos either. Overpriced! Toyota Tacoma will be after that. SMH
expensive truck in 2024 still rocking hand crank windows and halogen lights, not difficult to figure that no one buys them.
If you brought the price down to something reasonable, you might have better sales. But greedy corporate owners insist on high prices for those high profits.
50% of the price is for healthcare and 20% for pensions. 30% for the actual car.
Not likely. 50% is probably for the ones sitting in the high towers making the decisions and NOT getting fired.
Lay off more of them
The vehicles are overpriced. I'm going to pray for my union sisters and brothers! 🙏
Why? they voted out the party that saved their pensions!!!!! they’ll pay a BIG PRICE!!!! But They always have Social Security. Oh wait…..
Their Union boss finally wrote the check his members a**es couldn't cash!
Don’t worry,I’m sure Trump will save your jobs, 😂😂😂
Yeeaaahhh rriigGHHTTT! LOL!
White daddy coming to save us.
We are doing great under Bidenomics. You forget who your president is.
Biden/Harris caused this! It certainly can't hurt to let Trump try to save the auto industry! I'm sure ANYONE is better than Biden/Harris!
Ford is next. No one is buying overpriced Broncos. Dealership lots are still full with brand new 2023’s they can’t sell.
Affordable cars are needed. How hard is it for these manufacturers? They act like were millionaires
They got dependent on the high profitability of full-sized pickups and SUVs loaded with options and didn't have much of an alternative when consumers realized the high-priced vehicles were out of reach.
Are the other union workers going to strike?
Union leaders never get laid off but their workers sure do. I'm sorry to say, many of the auto unions have priced themselves into job cuts.
UAW Members.
Where's Shawn Fain?
Fain’s a talking head puppet.
Probably at his mansion having bulletproof glass installed!
Remember, my UAW BROTHERS AND SISTERS ????? eat the rich 😅 T-shirts. Last year. Thank Fain for your layoff

How are those unions working out for ya? 🤣
Cheap plastic over technical junk. Who can afford a 45,000 dollar Jeep

Dunlap tires in New York shut doors and laid off 1,550 employees. 1929?
Why are TV’s, electronics, and so many other things gotten much better and cheaper over the decades, while cars and trucks gone up 800 percent? Pure greed from the manufacturers and dealers and service department
because electronics have 5% as many parts as they did decades ago and vehicles have 20Xs as many parts as they did decades ago
That's why they call it the STEALERSHIP !
You can’t make sense of nonsense.
Oh America, should have googled what a tariff was before you voted 🙃
❤
Ummm. Tariffs aren't even in play yet. This is obviously a direct result of the Biden/Harris administrations incompetence and greed!
When you push cars people
Don’t want and you have crazy prices you run into
Stuff like this sensationalizing of EV’s when the majority of the consumers in the US could care less about it
I think Stellantis has intentionally ran CDJR into oblivion. Less competition for their European brands. Shameful.😡
I don't think any European brand was ever afraid of Chrysler.
All you have to do is walk around a new car lot an look at the window sticker price. Literally says it all.
Professor sounds lost...USA largest market lets make vehicles for abroad.......smaller vehicle...not what market is saying.....stellantis probably listen to analysts like this...and so here we are....
