Chrysler is apparently issuing warnings to some of its weaker-performing dealerships that if they don’t shape up within the next six months they will be shut down. Forty to 50 dealerships in the Great Lakes area received letters from the automaker earlier this month.
The dealerships had not been meeting sales goals, according to The Wall Street Journal’s website. The dealerships were given 180 days to shape up, or else Chrysler will begin the process of terminating the franchise. Chrysler is looking to do the same with other dealerships throughout the country, too.
Chrysler has 3,700 dealerships in the United States.
