Jared Reichert
Jared Reichert appears in the 2026 update section of Riding with the repo man (update) as the dealer-side successor voice after Rick Reichert had left the dealership. The episode uses Jared to show how the local subprime auto market changed after the original 2019 reporting.
Jared says repossessions on the lot were close to double the 2019 level and that cars suitable for subprime financing had become much more expensive. His account connects Car Affordability Stress to longer loan terms, because dealers may ask banks to stretch loans from 60 to 84 months when monthly payments otherwise do not fit the borrower.
