State by state count of General Motors dealers closing

GM dealer count by state of those who have received letters from GM

Up until now, all we had was a total count of dealers with which GM had notified of its intent to not to renew franchise agreements. The plot thickens with an accounting of dealerships closing on a state by state basis. The source of this list is a GM document provided to House Energy and Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations.

There are some shocking numbers, especially when you calculation on a per capita basis. For example, Pennsylvania (est 2008 population 12,448,279) loses 90 dealerships while California (est. 2008 population 36,756,666) loses "only " 65 dealers for the entire state.

GM has gone about reversing its decision on franchise agreements for about 41 dealers so far. However, those 41 are out of a total of 2,100 while only 1,323 are accounted for in this list.

Total U.S. count = 1,323
