Comment on Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop

Jeep is a Stellantis product. Literally the worst quality auto manufacturer in North America. They are circling the drain and jacking up the prices on their vehicles and making Pikachu faces when they don’t sell. Their only customers are people who don’t know how to research their purchases, and putting advertisement hell into their cars is another example of that. I suspect they will not be in business a decade from now.

I work in the auto industry. Can confirm, Stellantis is in bad shape. I wouldn’t buy anything from them.

  What’s confusing is that some great auto brands from Europe are under Stellantis (Peugeot and Citroen at least)
  
  And they’re actually not doing a shitty job in designing or selling their vehicles. It’s mainly the Chrysler brands or basically the US brands under Stellantis

    Turns out regulations are good for businesses.

    Regulations are definitely excellent for both businesses and consumers in the long term. But businesses are often too stupid to see past ANYTHING “quarterly”.

    They’re good for longevity, but they’re bad for quarterly profits. In the US, we care much more for the latter.

    Peugeot and Citroën have their own issues in Europe (and technically in America) with the recall of car due to defective airbags.

  Out of curiosity, who would you buy from?

    Out of the American big three, I have the most confidence in Ford. I’ve worked with engineers at all three, and the ones at Ford are the ones that I felt were most compitent.
    
    That being said, my next car will probably be a Toyota or a Subaru. Both way better than the American OEMs.

I had two Jeeps, first was originally my dad’s. It was an old shitbox. The other one was a somewhat old shitbox. 1998 & 2010. We dumped more time and money into them than I’d care to admit.
