    Stellantis announces new suspensions at three plants

    Production to pause at Pomigliano D'Arco, Termoli, Pratola Serra

    . . .

    Modern Jeeps are rated as CRAP - esp for their
    traditionally-intended purpose. They're just
    cheaply-made tech-heavy 'luxury' SUVs and constantly
    fall apart.

    The final products with the Chrysler name are
    also rated as crap.

    Hate to say it, but if China has the prints for
    the original Willys jeep they should start
    building them. There'd be lots of customers.
    Tough vehicles DO have their place.

    In any case, this isn't the first bad news I've
    seen about Stellantis lately. Looks like they're
    goin' DOWN.

    And the Chrysler name becomes the next olde-tyme
    US brand to vanish.
