Jeep, Dodge and Chrysler Just Pulled the Trigger to CRUSH US Auto Industry — Mass Layoffs!

, and Chrysler Simply Shot to Squash United States Auto Market– Mass Layoffs! The extensive challenges dealing with , the automotive powerhouse behind iconic American brands , Dodge, Ram, and Chrysler, as it navigates the fallout from President Donald Trump's aggressive 25% tariff on imported cars and elements. The narrative strongly catches the immediate and destructive results of the policy, including the closure of 2 major factories– one in Windsor, Canada, critical for Chrysler's Pacifica, and another in Toluca, Mexico, home to 's Compass and Dodge's Journey– resulting in almost 7,000 (4,500 in Canada, 2,500 in Mexico) and leaving 900 U.S. employees idle due to paralyzed supply chains. Each brand name's battle is explored in depth: Jeep, the symbol of rugged flexibility, faces halted production and diminishing stocks, stranding its pledge of open roads; Dodge, the heart of American muscle, sees its Battery charger and Challenger slowed to a trickle by skyrocketing expenses, annoying its bold fanbase; Ram, the heartland's truck titan, faces slashed output and scarce Strong designs, pushing away farmers and professionals who depend on its dependability; and Chrysler, a fading beacon of luxury, teeters on the edge as its Pacifica stalls and its heritage threats becoming a footnote. The text locates these disruptions within a wider industry crisis, predicting a $107.7 billion surge in production expenses, with bearing a significant $41.9 billion share, and warns of car rate walkings of $2,000-$ 4,000 within a year, threatening affordability for consumers. It critiques the fragility of Stellantis's globalized supply chain, once a strength and now a liability under protectionist policies, and takes a look at the company's response– pivoting to electrified models like Jeep's Wagoneer S, Dodge's electrical Battery charger, Ram's hybrid trucks, and Chrysler's conceptual EV Pacifica– while acknowledging the monetary and logistical obstacles of relocating production or retooling for a domestic focus. Beyond economics, the story humanizes the toll, spotlighting the shattered incomes of workers and the growing wonder about amongst devoted customers voicing frustrations online. Stellantis's storied brands, woven into America's cultural fabric through trip, drag races, and household milestones, stand at a pivotal juncture, forced to stabilize heritage with development. The text eventually frames this as a microcosm of American production's reckoning, questioning whether Stellantis can adjust to a tech-driven, interconnected world or succumb to a tariff-fueled storm, with implications for jobs, neighborhoods, and the nation's industrial identity.

    Look at dealer lots. Jeep. Dodge have overpriced products. Reliability is long gone. Tariffs aren’t the reason. Incompetence in upper and middle management world wide in Stelantis is the reason. Tariffs don’t have to be passed on an overpriced inventory.

    They may be using the US tarrifs as an escape goat while they already struggled blaming Tarriffs.

    I own a auto repair shop and i can tell you that stallantis has been struggling for years now , low quality , unreliability , and months long wait times for parts this is nothing new. Not to mention over production and over pricing , dealerships are sitting on cars that are two years old because they cant sell them.

    The big question to Trump is: if it is made in America who will buy America made stuff in this global economy? Example TV is around $400 if made in America probably $4000 (guessing)

      Maybe, it turns out that making/manufacturing physical “interface” is FAR more expensive than digital interface. Another advantage to maker is if it is broken, they can say software glitch and not do much to fix it. Physical buttons dials etc HAVE to be replaced.

    The truth about American cars in Europe, the price of gasoline is about $2 per liter, so they are far too expensive to drive ,we buy economic cars. Tesla does not require a service inspection, so 25% fail the mandatory 4-year inspection. And are therefore the absolute worst quality of all cars. Now its too late to develop small gasolie cars and too late to compete with chinese cars.

      Everyone keeps using the EU tariffs on American cars as an excuse. Even if the EU dropped all tariffs on American cars, nobody in the EU will buy them. In most of the EU, American cars are too wide, too long, and use too much gas.

    Stellantis has been cutting corners for years to shore up short term profits. The quality of their products reflect these measures and consumers know it. I’m not surprised to see flashy looking overpriced jolopies crowding dealership lots. I won’t be surprised to see corporate types dumping their stocks in the near future.

    STELLANTIS represents Italian, French, German, English and American brands.
    That’s why the worldwide exchange of parts is important for the group.
    Tariffs prevent the company from producing worldwide.
    Italian: ABART, ALFA ROMEO, LANCIA, FIAT
    French: CITROËN, PEUGEOT, DS
    German: OPEL
    English: VAUXHALL, MASERATI
    US: CHRYSLER; DODGE, JEEP, RAM, LEASYS, Free2move

    When a Mechanic replaces a part in your vehicle, do they make more money selling you the part, or installing that part for you? There is much more money to be made in servicing a item than actually selling it. The USA has a huge service surplus, yet nobody mentions this.

    It’s not about Stellantis or former FCA, its is just about Chrysler and subsidiaries which are struggling for decades and just survived because auf European companies buying and merging.
