Dodge Chargers Now Have Pop-Up Ads at Every Stoplight... Just What Nobody Asked For

Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This absolute garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look here.

Welp every manufacturer that shows this should go down immediately upon first offense.
Not even kidding, this should be corporate suicide.
Dodge and Jeep are (well Jeep already was tbh) both firmly on the "actively speak out against" list. If I was in a place of hugely inflated power, I would dismantle the entire company, and sell it to whoever that company likes the least.
This should honestly be a brand ending scenario in less than 5 seconds after the first ad. CEO should be in the bread line TODAY from getting hit with this.
ABSOLUTE zero tolerance. There are no valid arguments against this and I will die on this hill.
Jeep and Dodge are both owned by Stellantis :) It's one shit-circus out of France.
On the good news front, the market is beating them like a rented mule. Dodge alone is down 29% in sales year-over-year.
I had never heard of Stellantis until the comments on this post.
That's at least a little good news, but I want day-after total zero existence for stunts like this.
As in executed the day after murder kind of immediate punishment. In this case, total, irrevocable punishment.
C suite people literally living in shelters fighting for leftovers at a food bank after paying out years of employee salaries and benefits kind of punishment.
You can't just fine people like this for crimes. You have to actually take away money and the ability to accrue more than enough to live on.
Wow, if you’re this fired up about car dashboard ads, wait until you hear what Google’s bee doing with your data.
Yeah I'm not exactly happy about that either.
I was trying to stay on topic about this. That's a whole different rant.
Plus, things spread before they get worse. This is a line that shouldn't be crossed by anything in any way. The inside of my car is a nice little island. It should stay that way.
I feel pretty much everybody would agree with that. Even the ones open to it probably just want to make the money from it without having to deal with it themselves.
Dodge alone is down 29% in sales year-over-year.
"Clearly we need to add more AI, internet of shit, microtransactions and advertising on the cars to compensate!" - Stellantis CEO
Actually, Stellantis has their global HQ in Hoofddorp, Netherlands.
I wonder why they can’t get it right
This should be punishable by firing squad.
Or better yet, the masterminds behind this will lose someone due to distracted driving over an ad.
