The most prestigious award in the Chrysler family
Foss Motors Inc., located at 133 Portsmouth Avenue in Exeter, New Hampshire, is a family-owned Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, and Ram dealership founded by Laurence E. Foss in 1961.
The Walter P. Chrysler Award is the highest honor FCA US bestows upon its dealerships — named in memory of the founder of the Chrysler Corporation, whose commitment to craftsmanship and customer service built one of the great automotive legacies in American history. To earn it, a dealer must rank among the top 100 in the nation by retail sales volume, achieve 100% of their Minimum Sales Responsibility, meet rigorous customer experience score thresholds, hold Mopar Masters Club status, and maintain profitability — all simultaneously.
With 1,475+ Google reviews at a 4.8-star rating, recognition as an Exeter Chamber of Commerce Business of the Year, and status as a Fox Factory Vehicle dealer, Foss Motors has built its reputation one customer at a time for over six decades. This award reflects that work.
