Wouldn’t be a big loss for us. They’re not American or a Detroit company for that matter. They’re a French Multi Conglomerate.

A lot of people in Michigan, both blue collar and white collar, work for Stellantis.

Stellantis makes most of their cars over seas or in foreign countries and imports them from France and Italy. They’ve been talking about shutting down their US operations for years including selling the HQ in Auburn Hills.

This is entirely false. The majority of their models sold in North America are made in North America. They import Alfa Romeo (if they still even do that, haven't seen any in a while), Fiat, and the Jeep Renegade. Everything else is made in the US, Mexico, and Canada.

Maybe you should google before you spread false lies. Good lord. This is the reason why Reddit is full of fake information.

Jeep renegade is manufactured in Italy. It’s a rebadged fiat 500.
