Ourisman Jeep has closed at 6700 Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Bethesda. The dealership says that its franchise agreement with Stellantis has ended, and it will no longer sell new Jeep vehicles. However, the adjacent Ourisman Kia showroom will continue to sell pre-owned Jeep vehicles. Service will be offered for Jeeps, but the dealership will no longer be able to perform manufacturer warranty work on Jeep vehicles, now that it is no longer an authorized Jeep dealer.

Chrysler and Dodge cars are moribund, but Jeep and RAM still quite vivibund. But could Jeep/RAM survive all by itself? Stellantis' other brands in the USA Fiat and Alfa Romeo, but the only Fiat model sold is the 500 and I can't even remember the last time I saw a late-model Alfa.
I read somewhere Jeep in General is not doing very well this year……………
Stellantis is much larger than Fiat, Alfa, and Chrysler/Jeep. It also includes PSA (Peugot, Citroën, DS, Opel and Vauxhall) They are huge in Europe and have a large presence in Latin America and parts of Asia. But Chrysler is considered one of its weakest brands and yes, Ram has struggled with supply issues. Not sure what is the issue with Jeep these days, but I would agree that it will be picked off if Stellantis eliminates Chrysler.
Jeep and Ram has always been the worst car and truck to own.
