pSix key executives have left in the last five months, and dealers complain they have no affordable vehicles./p

I have spent the better part of two months speaking with Stellantis dealers, general managers and sales staff. I wrote stories about the end of the Ram 1500 Classic and legendary Hemi engine. I have spoken with countless folks in the Stellantis retail realm, from coast to coast to coast.

Full disclosure: My father assembled Chrysler and Dodge products for 30-plus years. Needless to say, my vehicles have often been the same brands. I also had one dealer recently tell me he hadn’t received a visit from a Stellantis regional manager since before the COVID-19 pandemic. Another dealer, who sells multiple brands, said a lack of interaction contrasts with Stellantis’ competitors, including one whose regional manager makes a point of frequent meetings — with donuts!
