Standing at the ready to give back to the
communities in which they live and work
Automobile dealers are community-based businesses, and several dealers responding to the
Automotive News Data Center survey noted efforts they had implemented or stand ready to
implement to support first responders, health care professionals and others in their communities
who are helping take care of people impacted by the coronavirus. One dealer noted, "We have
made health care workers and first responders a priority for service above all other customers. We
must act socially responsible and not try to profit from this crisis. We need to lend a helping hand
where we can."
Another respondent felt automobile dealers might represent an untapped resource capable of
addressing shortfalls in personal protection equipment and other medical devices, noting access
to large facilities and a highly skilled work force. "I have buildings that could be used for medical
or assembly facilities and idle staff that could be assembling things like face shields, hospital beds,
etc. We just need direction!"
Clearly, dealers responding to the survey are feeling the impact the coronavirus is having
on consumers and, as a result, their businesses. Despite significant uncertainty, dealers
continue to look for ways to drive revenue and support their employees and communities.
Said one respondent:
"We know the government is doing everything they can to keep
us safe. We are doing the same here at our store. We just all need to
stand together and get through this tough time."
While survey responses and direct comments throughout the study validate much of
this respondent's point of view, there is wide divergence among respondents regarding
the approach and effectiveness of what the federal and state governments are doing to
combat COVID-19. We dive into that topic further in the next section.
