      Kinda makes sense that they fit under the same umbrella. It’s a large section of what I’d call mediocre car makers. Not the absolute worst, but far from the best.

          Used to be Hyundai / Kia, but they’re blowing them out of the water quality, reliability and interior design wise these days.

          No worse place to be than a Dodge interior.

            Hyundai have been making reliable cars for a very long time though, my mother has a Santa Fe with over 300k km on it.

              Indeed, I feel like Hyundai / Kia cars either shit the bed really early, or last a really long time like a Toyota. No in-between.

              Case in point, my 2020 Elantra blew its engine at 7,000km. Got it replaced under warranty, doing frequent maintenance on it, going strong at 70,000 km with zero issues. It just now needed brakes!

          Fair point. Most really cheap crap is long gone these days. But I’d rather sit in one of those three than a Land Rover, Ssangyong or Nissan (which has been plagued with horrible reliability issues as of late).

            Oh god, SsangYong. I had an LDV work van until recently, when it blew a head gasket at seven years old. Rusty piece of shit.

      I test drove an Alfa Romeo Giulia and it was a shambles from beginning to end.

      He pulls the demo car round, and it was out of fuel, had a flat tyre, the engine management light was on, and the oil temp was sky high.

      This was the demo car. The one they use to sell people on the brand.

      Noped right out of there and bought German.

      The guy has made Peugeot a profitable company. This is a bona fide miracle, given how shitty the cars have become. BUT! Now they are shitty and 40% more expensive, you absolutely need to buy one.

            Upgrade your fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs, and plug wires. The ones they stick on at the factory work, but don’t provide optimal fuel consumption. Doing this, and watching my tach I got an old Forester to get around 25mpg delivering food.

            maybe make sure injectors are working properly (defective injectors have more fuel return thus higher consumption) ? or throttle body uncalibrated ? or good fuel pump motor. After changing the fuel pump motor i had a diesel mpg (60mpg) with my gasoline car (which used to be at 30, sometimes 20mpg, which was too much :/)

        I can vouch for this, having had a 308 van that was bleeding me dry annually through the revisions, even if they’re not expensive to buy, the maintenance is ridiculously expensive.

    Oof, I don’t feel so good for the UAW peoples that are striking. Need more to strike and need more companies being striked. Fuck these companies that siphon money and let their workers live and die in poverty

      Well, more than half of Stellantis factories are in Europe and have at least an half decent collective working agreement in place. I don’t even want to imagine how bad the contracts for the factories they have in Asia and Africa are though.

      This is a very smart strike. Firstly they’re able to stretch the use of their strike fund by not having all members go at once. Second they can target high demand factories while continuing to overproduce in others causing the company to not meet demand for certain models and continue to oversupply in others.

    Compared to other CEOs, 23 million euros is a miserable salary for such an huge corporation. Maybe that’s why he wants to pay less for workers.

    (Not to say that he should take more, if it was for me I would cap salaries at 500k at most by law, no matter how important is your role)

    This is kind of stupid and useless. These are brands under a single company, not separate entities. Many many companies use different branding for the stuff the make and build. It’s all still fiat Chrysler or whatever they’re xalling themselves these days.

    p.s. I used to work at fiat Chrysler, thats how I know.
