Another great video. Thanks, Scotty!
Nothing new. They moved out back in the 60s-70s. For cheaper labor.
Americans want inexpensive base models. Manufacturers won't build them. But they blame the workers instead of poor management decisions.
I have lived in Michigan most of my life, hearing the media repeat the big three management line.. Big three management never, ever, makes a mistake, according to management. All of their company's problems are entirely the fault of either the government, the union, or the Japanese.
There's a reason they won't build inexpensive cars. It's expensive to build them. So what to do?
@@Travis12861 I have a Kenwood radio in my 2000 Outback also has Bluetooth...
Of course high union wages is killing the auto industry. Labor cost is about 30%.
@@atilhun348 maybe someone should do something about the high cost of living that requires such high wages. maybe we need nationwide rent caps and price controls on food and energy
US car makers need to get back to basics
These are not american companies anymore.
Capitalism won't allow that
@@richardjohnson6849yea even ford and chevy its absolutely disgusting how they all just up and left only for money it really shows what they’re true intentions are
Funny you say basic. The cars are basic stuffed with crap we don't need.
@@Jake-mi3bjYou obviously don’t know what Capitalism is.
I know someone who bought $100,000+ Grand Wagoneer and in the first 12 months had to bring it to the dealer 13 times to get broken stuff fixed. Still doesn't drive right.
I know a family that had a new one break down right after buying it 60 miles, transmission blowup
OMG 😳 @@nothanks-check-please
Made in China.
If you follow Scotty you would not have bought a Dodge/Jeep/Ram in the first place. After all it is still basically a Fiat and no one has ever bragged about Fiat quality. Now Ford and Chevy are not much better. Even Toyota is starting to slip. I dont know where these quality issues will end but if they dont people are screwed. Buy an expensive car and it wont run so you rent a car and then your insurance goes up. So it is an ever escalating problem with poor quality.
@@nothanks-check-please Mr. Randy from Co-part had experience with his new vetts that he paid a lots of money for it and he ended up filing a complaints with dealership that sold his Chevy Corvette for unresolved issues after repair with his 100k Corvette.
It’s always been poor management. Stellantis is not an American company. Boycott all of their products.
I miss the days when I could open the hood and change an alternator in 30 minutes. The only things under the hood was the engine, alternator, voltage regulator, a battery that was easily changed the had air conditioning. And a few other things that were easy to diagnose and change.
Even for me with my Dodge Daytona Shelby Z and it's 2.2 l. 4 pot everything about that engine including how it was installed in the engine bay was pretty easy to work on. The 2.2l. was for me a bullet proof engine. Never had any issues with the turbo either. Of course I did regular oil changes and stayed on top of the coolant too. Not beating the crap out of my Daytona Shelby also helped to keep it running well.😎
I miss my old Plymouth Valiant, slant 6, Torqueflite transmission.
@@billgund4532
My first car was a 1965 Plymouth Valiant with Slant 6 and 3 speed auto. Ran like a top.
@@DigbyOdel-et3xx Mine was a 71. AM radio. Heater that worked once in awhile. Absolutely bulletproof.
@@billgund4532
Mine came with stock AM radio as well. I eventually put a Learjet brand AM/FM cassette stereo with a couple of Sparkomatic brand 6x9 speakers in the rear deck and later added a 7 band EQ with power booster. For a 18 y.o. it was a pretty good sounding system 🤗
The UAW leadership have performed great by getting their members jobs sent outside of the US.
Dodge Ram Jeep died when Stellantis bought them 💀
CDJR died when Chrysler Corporation did... not after DaimlerChrysler, not after Chrysler LLC, nor after FCA.
Agreed.
I grew up a huge Mopar/ Chryco fan. Bought a number of Chrysler cars since the 80's.
I even liked their smaller company ( compared to the other big 3 and Japanese makers) with a big heart ideal.
Of the numerous Chryco cars that I owned, I owned a 1988 Dodge Daytona Shelby Z and loved everything about it. Regret getting rid of it.
I loved the general styling of most Chryco motor vehicles. Of course I love their 60's muscle cars too. The Dodge Charger and Plymouth Barracuda the most. But my favorite car of all time of all manufacturers us the Dodge Viper, especially the various Coupe models over the years.
Chryco under Daimler was the last true era. FCA had its moment's but you could see the writing on the wall by the time of the Fiat merger... The fact that Italy/Frenchie Stellantis owns Chryco is likely it's impending death. For that I feel sad 😢
Agreed
@@DigbyOdel-et3xxwell, the Hellcat engine was released during the FCA days..
@@josephjroy6593
Yes that is so, but one could sense even under FCA that Chryco was moving into its twilight years. That said the Chargers and Challengers were the last Mopars I ♥️ of course the last gen Viper was 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I have a Dodge 2005 half ton Ram pickup V6 3.7 liter engine. Still runs great. I take good care of it. Manufactured back when Dodge was not a part of Stellantis and actually still made decent pickups. 😊
I have a 1994 2500 cumins diesel still going strong
That's back in the Mercedes years. I had a 05' with the 4.7. Ran very well.
I have an 08 that I don't take care of like I should, and it still runs like a champ. 4.7L engine is great.
Thank Sean Fein UAW ...you negociated yourself out of a job
Besides the auto makers, check out the John Deere layoffs due to the movement to Mexico!😡😡
Increased prices, worse quality parts, and worse build quality
I’m also a UAW employee making the axles for the 1500 rams it’s not even an American company anymore sad man but they not going anywhere why because the government gave them our tax money to stay running
The rear differential on my Ram 1500 is why I will NEVER purchase another Ram
They paid that back allegedly., they are sending the Jeep Gladiator and the Rams all to Mexico. Good luck Dana axel person
Sorry to say I think you have a few years left before DANA moves to Mexico as well.
@@Koorstag And my Nissan Titan ( made in Tennessee)
There's no such thing as a American car or truck anymore. They built them wherever and get parts all over the world. My father in law told he only buys American cars and trucks. I asked him what's a American car or truck. He told me chevy, ford and dodge of course. Than I would ask him why his oldest son was a repair guy for the robots on the assembly lines in Mexico for chevy and Ford. It would shut him up every time. Lol.
UAW membership in 1979 was 1.5 million. Today, it's about 400,000.
Good, assembly workers shouldn't be making $95,000. Get rid of the union 100%. They served their purpose but than got to greedy.
Looking like the Steelworkers of the ‘70’s
@@Jdalio5My question to you is, have you ever worked a day on an American Auto Assembly Line? 10 hours a day, 6 days a week? Not an easy task. I know. I worked 33 years for General Motors. By the grace of GOD I was able to do this. These auto companies, all of them have made Billions on the backs of hard working Americans.
@@jameswood231 I build fishing boats and spend some 10 hours days working under my feet and in very tight spots, not a perfect comparison but I know what hard work it. In my humble opinion the unions leveled the playing field ( which is great) but swung the pendulum to far for the auto industry to stay competitive. Some of it is no ones fault, how could any health care contract drafted in the 60's account for a 75year old needing a $400k heart transplant in 2020??
@jameswood231 yes but asking for more money on top of asking to work less is laughable.
I worked for a company that laid off a bunch of employees because orders were down. Two weeks later, they had a large influx of new orders and asked the laid off workers to return to work. More than half of them refused to return and had some pretty vulgar responses. The manager behind the layoff later told me in confidence that he'd made a huge mistake.
I also worked for a company that would lay off workers and some of those workers, including myself were brought back as contractors because contracted employees were paid from a different budget. That kept me working for 2 years before being hired back full time.
The lay off/Firing tac-tic make a bad name for the company! The forced out and hires as temp to fired strangury along with outsourcing foriegn workers work better!
Then don’t buy there junk
I hear ya
Hahaha.
"their" junk
Bottom line.
*their*
car prices have tripled in the last 10 years. have the workers wages went up that much.
Not most workers but the car manufacturers employees have.
Average transaction prices for new cars have increased by about 60% over the last decade. Factors contributing to this rise include more standard features in cars, a shift towards higher-priced crossovers and SUVs, and supply chain disruptions.
@@jim-ce5kt not the last decade, they increased that much the last 4 years.
@@jim-ce5kt And mostly union wages for the American brands.
@@jim-ce5kt More spy equipment that they have convinced Americans to accept
I had a 1996 2.5 diesel Jeep grand Jerokee and it was a great car. They don't make them like they used to.
Did you let andy drive it?
@@Marty-j9e Who is Andy?
Many Jeep products have been made in CHINA for years? FORD built the biggest car manufacture company in BRAZIL years ago?
@@77.88.China nowadays makes better quality than America a product made in China has the same quality as a product that is made in Japan.
How many electric cars are getting charged in Houston? Stellantis is the worst managed company with the worst reliability. It's not just price of the vehicles.
Hi Scotty,
My uncle and cousin built my 18 year old Dodge Ram 3.71 V6 111K today at the Warren Michigan Dodge Truck plant on Mound Rd at 9mile.
Thankfully both are long retired now!
I have driven in all 48 of the lower 48 with it!
My Granpa was involved in the sit down strikes of 1930's lore. He retired and was very proud of his UAW membership that provided for his family. My Granma was able to stay at home and raise their children (my mom was one of them) He's dead (1985) and I still miss him so much! He could fix anything!
Cool story man .thanks for sharing it..those old fellows made darn good trucks and cars👍👍👍👍
For some people things have never been better, for a lot of others things have never been worse.
I love when Scotty laughs like ALF
Americans need vehicles without all the electronic crap.
Some of the same people who think that McDonalds and other fast food restaurants should pay 20 per hour are also the same people who will tell you not to eat meat or eat fast food. So how exactly do these franchises make money? I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not paying 8 bucks for a fast food burger.
I'm curious, what's your annual salary?
@darkgalaxy5548 I'm curious what kind of stupid question that was. Every American is being crushed by inflation and sky high prices on food, groceries, literally everything. Most people can't even afford to buy a house now
Mine 49k, im feeling the cost of evrything and looking at never owning a house in the next 10 years evrything is so expensive@darkgalaxy5548
Try a BUSY BEE affordable HAMBURGER? Welcome to S.E.,Oklahoma?
I just drove by the Stellantis Belvidere plant and its still closed-and has been since last Oct. Told 4 months ago or so due to 'retooling' OK, keep deluding yourself-and they may be building a battery plant behind but who much you want to to bet that neither will be open 18 mos from now?
People at the top make too much))
Big mistake Dodge!
Everyone likes to blame wage increases for inflation, but they fail to look at the big picture. Inflation happens first. Then, wages barely move up if at all.
If you really want to look at the source its most likely from rent and housing costs going up which makes workers need more pay which makes costs rise. And would ya look at that? Realpage has been working with places across the country to artificially increase rent through algorithmic price fixing.
Just shows how stupid these electric fan boys are
*The government push for EVs is a ruse for mass transit.*
The oligarch's keep the pay low. The whole model is to keep the pay low.
I dont know why people have so many problems with FCA. I have Chrysler 200 2016 with over 296000 Km on still running on original transmission and engine.
Your one of the lucky few. The 200 was on the list of most unreliable cars on the road during it's run. My dad had one with the lifetime bumper to bumper warranty did every maintenance in the book at correct times to keep the warranty active & still the transmission goes out 6 times. Finally we just filed lemon law & got money from that. I have family with more Cryslers and they are having auto issues way more than the rest of us.
@@nicoctane1669 did you know chrysler 200 uses 9HP automatic transmission which is made ZF and used by many automotive brand such as Acura, Honda, nissan, land Rover, infinity and FCA. All you need to do is use a good transmission fluid change at regular intervals.
@AmitSharma-gf4gz Well Crysler does something down the line that really messes things up. I get that you have 1 so your more likely to defend them but it's no secret that majority of reports, and mechanics (Scotty Kilmer included) ranks Crysler as one of the worst for dependability & reliability. A used Toyota or Honda have a greater resale value for a reason, the market doesn't lie. Also notice that I said on my dad's 200 maintenance was regularly done to keep the warranty & the transmission still always had issues.
Love my 10 Chrysler 300. 290k !
If I put one of those solar recharging panels on my car where I work it would be stolen as soon as I walked away from my car! 😂
Scotty you and I used to live in Houston. So I understand your last comment about someone stealing the solar charger. However I now live in deep east Texas and maybe someone would steal your charger but likely around here they would not steal it. First of all most people around here would not even know what it is. Secondly if someone did steal it they are likely from Houston or Dallas passing through. The world has gone to hell and especially in the big cities.
Took my challenger to the dealer I purchased it from because of the backup camera being glitchy or "not available ". Told me it would be a 2 hour job. That turned into 2 days. I left after because I had to go to work and I live an hour away. I started asking about a car to drive while it's being "diagnosed". Which they said they didn't have any. A car lot with no cars. A tech said there is a recall coming for the "radio" that could be it.... I am thinking about legal counsel. Complete waste of time. Also trunk lid liner loose. Hello Capital CDJR of Indian Trail. Seriously thanks to Scotty, TKs garage, OC motivator, and Butta da insider for doing what he does for consumer advocacy. Posted an updated Google review of the dealership... Check it out
My 2004 camry has had 2 flanges welded front and aft. Otherwise all original 311,000 miles and going strong. Liked it so much I just bought a 2005 with 135k like new. Best car/yr ever built.
Made in Japan, unlike my ‘18 XSE which is also great btw
0:42 Its crazy to try and blame the workers, did the workers create such a high cost of living?
Bidonomics did
@@walttegtmeier2303yup. Now watch all the democrats come in here and spew hate because you dared to speak the truth.
@@walttegtmeier2303 The USA has been ruined by corporations which are almost always Republicans..
They don't take much pride in their work
They didn't create BLACK ROCK HEDGE FUND and the other two money eaters either?
One of the best videos on this crisis. So true. Record contract=layoffs
The high cost of new cars along with their maintenance problems are directly effected by government requirements for mileage and emissions. These 6 to 10 speed transmissions, DoD and other problem systems are just for CAFE standards.
The Avg apartment is 1 bedroom is 1,500.00 Avg home if 600k Just put two together.
Serge years were the best years. 2014 to 2020 are really good vehicles.

Go back to elementary school
OUR ECONOMY IS COLLAPSING
Welp. That's what happens when you center your entire economy around cars.

Welcome to the REAL world, Scotty!
... still in shock!? It's historic for sure!
They sell universal flanges at Napa that go on over the pipe with two bolts one on top one on bottom then the two holes for the bolt up to your flange that's on the car still and you put your gasket in the middle done no welding at all. There like 10$
BYD Seagull, $12k, is the car we need
High pay? You still think $20 is money. Welcome to 2024.
$20 is less than $40k a year. You can't even afford a 1 bedroom apartment here in Florida with those wages.
@B977e sorry to be pedantic, but that's actually a 33% increase in pay.
The endless greed of unions has killed auto manufacturers. The price of the cheapest vehicles are now out of reach of the average American Worker. Plus all you see are trucks and SUVs; what happened to CARS??? As in coupes and four door sedans!!!
The commercial for GTA 5s Dodge "Bravado" is scary accurate
Thank you Scotty for your continued contributions to my life. These provide videos so much more than amazing knowledge from an automotive channel 💯😎
Hey Scotty I really appreciate your channel you stay busy and on top of things watched along time great work my friend take care
About the Camry muffler, If the original one is fine and not showing too many cracks or rust, try to find a shop that welds a new flange (many are just too lazy to do it or they'd rather sell you a muffler) because you'll keep changing Walker lifetime mufflers every two years! And a factory muffler with a new flange might outlast a few replacements! The more expensive replacement mufflers have a lifetime warranty but still a hassle to replace them every two years!
Some Camrys like the 2001 I used to have had exhaust pipes with a welded band over them (for sound reduction I guess) that would rust out but their mufflers were quite good! The weak spots are the flexible pipes and exhaust pipes between the catalytic converter and the muffler. The flanges can also rust pretty badly and need to be replaced.
Union contracts don’t lead inflation they trail it. When we negotiate we’re always trying to get caught back up to where we were. The reason for the layoffs has more to do with a slowing economy than the contract negotiations. But you won’t hear that from Stellantis. They will use any excuse to shift blame towards the workers union.
Wrong. Union wages are always higher than free market (non-union wages) which means union wages are leading inflation, not trailing it.
@@kirkjohnson6638 our contracts are always for at least three years. When negotiations come back around inflation has eaten away our gains and we try to get back what we lost. The companies always try to prevent that to make the loss permanent.
@@kirkjohnson6638 case in point, which came first the past three years, inflation or the new contracts? Inflation.
@@kirkjohnson6638correct
What about GM and Ford hundreds of layoff just a couple of months after the UAW new contract?
Good pay raise and now your fired.
Good friend bought a new electric Hummer 130 k.
Broke a windshield and wanted over a month for replacement.
Then his wife was trapped in the rear door do to mechanical failure. Pulled a 21 ft camp trailer and needed charging after 130 miles. He traded in a 2023 gmc diesel truck. He hates the Hummer and can get nothing for trade.
Dear Scotty, I have a problem with my country.
The parts keep falling off.
Those Tesla trucks are a poor excuse for a truck.
We need Trump back in office!
*they’re
stellantis plan was from the beginning was obtaining an existing parts, service, sales network to sell their imported vehicles just like Mercedes Benz. do you remember the dodge magnum that was the sister car they sold as a Mercedes. they were easy to identify with the roof that sloped down. a dodge with a Mercedes name plate on it.
Will the Bramalea Plant in Brampton Ontario Canada ever open up again?
it looks abandoned right now/ no production/ although some say they are moving over to EV vehicles.
Drove by it two days ago and no product at all in their holding delivery giant area. Hmmm?
I don't like your derrogative comments to México, we know how to make quality stuff, starting with the food most americans eat at their tables. Not to mention that a lot of parts are made in México and all put togheter in the US.
Ford is building a huge "City" complex in Memphis for future production of some of their vehicles. It's huge!
Probably EVs
if it is evs do not bother
It’s a EV battery plant. They got a big tax break.
Or just use JB weld if its small hole along seam in exhaust, just a temporary quick fix.
Relative did this to a muffler behold vehicle quiet 😂😅
Hes prays hope all of the jb weld he used holds up
I suspected when Stellantis bought FCA it was for the dealer network and to re-label Peugot's, citroen's, and opel as former FCA brands except for Jeep, but it looks like even Jeep is going to go. They raised prices 50% over 4 years, when inflation over the same period was like 22%
Well Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep is not an American company. Owned by FIAT.
My Tundra weighs 6,000 pounds… The CyberTruck only weighs 500 more… Don’t know why people exaggerate how heavy those things are
The Hummer EV is over 9000 pounds, the Cybertruck almost 7000 pounds, compare that to my 2005 Highlander of less than 4000 pounds, big difference.
6000lbs? Talk about a gas guzzler. My 03 Cavalier weghs 2700 lbs with me in it.
Cyber truck are made at Toy R Us.
i looked it up, a Tundra 5,095 to 5,800 lbs, a cyber truck 6,669 to 6,898 lbs. So a cyber truck weighs anywhere from 900 to 1800 lbs more than a tundra.
@@quick-and-easy 3005. Check the weight of a 2024 equivalent model. You will be surprised.
Scotty i'm wondering, have they ever tried integrating solar in with the paint job of a car?
In the 1990's a young engineer designed a type of solar panel that could be shaped into roof tiles, auto body panels and RV trailer siding. Those were clear due to his inability to find a suitable colorant that wouldn't reduce the sunlight reaching the solar cells.
@@billwilson-es5yn nice thank you for that information
The solar panel thing would be good for PHEVs with smaller batteries.
Yeah, when Target was grandstanding about (eventually) paying their workers $15.00/hr, they failed to mention that they would then expect one associate to do the job of 2-3 associates, which is the equivalent to paying $5.00-7.50/hr...
And yes, watch out for phrase "American made". McDonalds used to say "100% American Beef" while failing to mention they mean the entire American continent, North and South when they said "American".
They just lost my business. I have 2012 Dodge Longhorn Lariet 3500 Cummins. Checked the door sticker for tire pressure. MADE IN MEXICO!! 78000 miles. So far so good. Headlights blink off and on sometimes. No power to trailer power socket.
Trust me they don’t care they make more money form there cars outside the US then from within thanks to our govt policies. This is parts of a system of American abandonment of American tech, retail, restaurant and automotive industries. There’s more foreign cars on the road than American! 🇺🇸 it’s the end stage of America foot foward, we’re last in everything now except for crime immigration, taxes and corruption
SÍ
Not true about all exhausts, i had a tire guy weld shut an exhaust break, lasted more than 10 years no more problems, every exhaust has a weak spot that needs fixed
Friend of mine had a Dodge ram pickup he special ordered took 12 months to get it he had it for a year and was in the shop for 7 months total during that year that he owned it they never could fix it they blamed him for the errors so he finally sold it and got a Hyundai his story is the reason I ended up getting a old Nissan
Thank you UAW...
My best car ever has been my 2014 Dodge Dart SXT!
plus only one (maybe two) of the solar panels would actually be facing directly at the Sun at any given time
UAW is why cars are being made in Mexico
Even Hellen Keller saw this coming…
Damn it this gonna directly affect my job
So they aren’t leaving. How come TH-cam doesn’t sanction sites that do this ?
Another downside of using the GoSun solar car charger--with it resting on top of a car you can bet that it's going to scratch its paint something fierce, especially if there's wind about.
They should heavily tax them when they bring their vehicles back into the country!
3D printable spare parts. . . Paint by numbers.
For interior trim maybe. Good luck 3D printing anything else that actually works.
In Corolla I trust.
They’re not there.
You even got it wrong.
@@mikek5298 the hay her
Where are they?
Scotty, they're building a massive EV plant in Avon. Ohio, of course, it's a government grant. It's keeping me working. I work at a concrete plant, but how is it going to be viable..? 💔🇺🇲 I'm just a dumb truck driver.I'd like to see you do a segment on it.
More cars doesn’t necessarily mean more profit since Chrysler dealerships can sell what’s already on their lots, they’re all way overpriced and nobody is having that anymore
Scotty, do you believe that people shouldn't earn a living wage for manufacturing automobiles?
Doesn't sound like it!! Most Republicans don't believe in unions or a fair wage.
Fane makes 347k
Plus expenses.
They're leaving*
Cars and trucks are expensive,and economy stinks,we got to get real🇺🇸
America needs to buy there stuff Back , Period !
20 an hour in CA is a deep poverty wage. CA is too expensive for McDonalds in General. There is no middle class in CA.
No loss!
Go back to the K-cars idea. Everyone could afford one most people just need to get to work.😊
People thought FCA was bad for Chrysler........then Stellantis happened 😭 this is a trainwreck I can't stop watching
Do you think they're ever could be a chance independent small car manufacturers like they had in the 1920s with all the different small companies is it possible for that to happen again
2:30 , u mean "HYSTERICAL" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Check the mileage on the OBD not odometer 68,000 up to 258,000 I knew it was 'rolled' but 190,000 really?
Shawn Fain done bamboozled all the UAW employees thinking that they were gonna benefit but end up losing now that the big 3 might be moving out of America.
Even Elon said that solar panels on cars are not an option because the car doesn't have enough surface area.
Yup, engineering students do solar car competitions and the vehicles are impressive, but they are super light, super aerodynamic, and not practical in real terms. A production car is far too much mass.
@@jamesroscoe7555 We also worked on pneumatic vehicles in college, that doesn't make a daily pneumatic vehicle a reasonable option. In fact there are none.
@@laszlobauer5274 Actually (I know it's not the same), but Koenigsegg is using a pneumatic valve system. Cool engineering, but still internal combustion.
In case it wasn't clear, I was agreeing with you. A Tesla weighs about 10x as much as one of those solar cars. There is no where near enough roof area to generate enough power to propel a normal car.
