The auto industry, like many others, is in the midst of a perfect storm of misfortunes.
Customers are experiencing long wait times to get their cars serviced. The parts needed to service those cars are on back order. And many dealerships don’t have adequate supplies of loaner cars to give because their supply of new and used cars is already strained.
“I have never experienced anything that is this widespread and lasted this long,” said Dane Minor, general manager of Freeman Toyota in Hurst, Texas, and a 33-year veteran of the industry.
