I had 3 pretty big ones and and a couple of small ones get “the notice” yesterday that are close to me.
I was getting my parts from one of them up until six months ago. Another I attended a pinstriping class in their bodyshop a year and a half ago.
I don’t get why Chrysler is terminating dealers though. If each store were paying for their vehicles, why wouldn’t they want more chances for someone to purchase a car. I’d want one on every corner.

I I don’t know how this is going to help chrysler! All it did was put more people out of work.
Actually I can see why in a lot of ways too many dealers competing for same customer base with same product = lower prices.
Weed out Dealers with bad habits for servicing or multiple customer complaints = loose customer base for a product line from a bad service, repair or warranty issues.Fewer dealers = Higher prices!
When shops get busy and too big the customer always looses! such as with dealers selling multiple brands.So who is loosing in this deal? the consumer as always. (But it will help too in a lot of ways)
Chevys and Ford are doing it too The Big 3 are taking lessons from the ones kicking there ass Toyota and Nissan.
Problem is they all should have been doing this stuff 20 years ago
