Stellantis CFO Says Automaker Needs “To Build Back Trust”

Stellantis CFO Says Automaker Needs “To Build Back Trust”​

Stellantis is taking steps to restore trust among its key stakeholders after a leadership shakeup. Following the departure of former Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Carlos Tavares, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Doug Ostermann shared the company’s focus on mending relationships with dealers, suppliers, unions, and governments.

 
I don’t pretend to be a trained or skilled business executive but I offer my best thinking when I comment. Individuals judge those comments, hopefully with respect. Here I go, again.
I have stated, repeatedly here that job one for Stellantis is build quality which builds confidence and trust in product. The biggest sin by Tavares was poor judgement in excessive cost cutting and use of poorly manufactured and cheaper parts. My 2019 Dodge Challenger and Jeep Cherokees are well built, reliable, trouble free and satisfying. What happened guys? What appears to me as being built by Dodge and Jeep gives me reservations about buying anything right now from Stellantis. I’m keeping my current cars hoping for better days. Millions of potential buyers are likely doing the same thing. The electric hoax has wasted billions that could have gone into these current shabby vehicles. Wasted on a political false agenda, we now have a job one made much more difficult by these poor decisions. Crap in crap out.
Perhaps my thoughts are shallow or inadequate in this business environment, but I bet my job one is really job one. Start there. Judge this comment as you see fit.

100%

I have zero interest in buying anything from this company until I see proof that quality is at least back to what it was pre-Stellantis.

Prices going up + quality going down is not a way forwards
