Recall, operations at Stellantis have been nothing short of a nightmare this year, as we have been reporting. Early this month we wrote that Stellantis Chief Financial Officer Natalie Knight informed her team of white collar workers about the need to take "drastic measures" to shore up the Jeep and Ram parent's finances.

Knight told her team, "The Doghouse is back!" As she explained, this belt-tightening initiative involves heavily scrutinizing requests for purchases from outside vendors to ensure maximum cost savings.
