All automotive blame is on the chip shortage, but I doubt that. I suspect the class-warfare, confiscatory Bidenomics is the root cause.

The U.S. arm of Stellantis, formerly known as Fiat Chrysler I've always wondered why CEOs, who are supposed business geniuses, take world-wide, famouse brand names, and change them to meaningless, made up words no one knows or will remember?

Rumor is they were having trouble getting Check Engine lights that would stay on permanently

It would be nice if we made more microchips in the US and if the EPA allowed rare earths to be mined in America, etc..

I remember driving past the output lot at that plant a long time ago, when it was filled with Neons that Chrysler could not move. Not sure how long it took to get the workers back there after that, or when the plant converted to Jeeps.

Toyota sold a record of almost 1 million vehicles in March because they planned ahead regarding chip supplies.

There’s no money in selling cars anymore, it’s the service departments and parts departments that rake it in.

It's actually the chip shortage.
To: bigbob
I don’t doubt the huge chip shortage and supply chain problems.
But I suspect there’s a lot more at work here than just those components.
