Dropping the F-bomb, calling everybody dumb or spamming your Facebook feed? You name it, and these companies will deliver.


10.) Bentley's hashtags

If there was ever any doubt about which is the classy one out of the Rolls-Royce/Bentley duo, those hashtags on auto show Bentleys got rid of it without a trace.

9.) Buick's Facebook Riviera

Social media accounts should only be managed by people who actually know the brand as well. A lesson learnt the hard way at GM.

8.) Meet the BMW Challenger

Ladies and gentlemen, not even a Dodge fan! GM and Chrysler people clearly go to the same bars.

7.) The 'Camry Effect'

The 'Camry Effect' is basically when you piss off customers by sending out a bunch of stupid, spammish tweets blabbing about the benefits of beige.

5.) Holley leaving manifolds everywhere

4.) Smart calling everybody dumb

Basically, calling everybody without a Smart dumb.

2.) Jeep getting hacked hard

It took them more than a day to sort out. That's still better than GM of course.

1.) Chrysler fucking Detroit

"I find it ironic that Detroit is known as the#motorcity and yet no one here knows how to fucking drive".

We found it ironic too.
