Jeep fan boy here: Quality, at least on the Wranglers, is awful. Pricing is ridiculous. A cylinder head shouldn't need to be replaced at 60k miles, body panels should be aligned at delivery, parking brakes shouldn't fail, every JL and JT made will have body corrosion issues that Jeep is fixing at a cost of $12-$15k per Jeep. This is all basic stuff. To get a similarly equipped Wrangler as the one I purchased in 2017 it would be 2x the price, at least. Does Stellantis really think their loyal customers are getting paychecks twice what they were making 7 years ago. Stellantis management is out of touch with the US customer. And there is no sign of changing.

Pricing is a big problem. The other big problem is they didn't explain well enough to customers why the Hemi had to go! The Hemi played into the skyrocketing prices. There was so much extra cost with CAFE penalties and need to buy carbon credits. They have to get their fleet fuel averages in line with both passenger vehicles and trucks where they aren't having to pay out fines or buy carbon credits. The Simpletons can't grasp that reality. The other issue which is mentioned was cancelling product prematurely without having a replacement to fill its place ready. That gets to another issue I think that has been largely ignored is that they flooded the lots with vehicles to fill in the gap. Those vehicles haven't sold well enough or fast enough due to the pricing and a small but vocal crowd of Hemi buyers that truth be told Stellantis will be better off without! These are the ones throwing an adult temper tantrum and chasing people away from buying anything they make that doesn't have a Hemi in it or none American build roots. I see once they get these newer platforms out it might take a bit but they will win over a new and better customer base. Most of the Hemi heads will be dead before the full transition to EV's is completed so its kind of funny seeing them throw a temper tantrum over something they will never live to see.

Dealers made their own bed as well when they started gouging customers with insane markups and addons. Stellantis saw that people were dumb enough to buy overpriced vehicles they can't afford and the markups just became the price. Problem is, them and other American brands stopped catering to the car market and bet all their chips on suv and truck sales. If they can make a sub $25k electric car and call it a Neon Ev they will sell. Take Chrysler and do what Hyundai did with Genesis and move it up market then have dodge, Jeep and ram fall back to earth and be the simple affordable vehicles they are supposed to be. Oh, and retool the HEMI and bring it back in a few years in a refreshed Charger and all new Cuda. I know it's all fantasy but one could dream.
