John McEleney, owner of McEleney Autocenter in Clinton, Iowa, and McEleney Autoplex in Iowa City, was elected chairman of the National Automobile Dealers Association during the association’s board of directors meeting in San Diego. His one-year term begins Jan. 1.
McEleney is a lifelong resident of Clinton who joined the family auto business after earning a bachelor’s degree in business administration from the University of Notre Dame. The dealerships sell Chevrolet, Buick, Pontiac, GMC, Cadillac, Toyota and Hyndai brand vehicles.
In a news release issued Wednesday, McEleney said one of the association’s top priorities in the coming year will be dealing with issues related to credit.
“It may be a tough time for business, but it’s a great time for consumers who have a stable job and solid credit scores,” he said in the news release. “Most people have heard the expression, ‘All politics is local.’ The same is true of credit. All credit is local. The fact is, local dealers have access to multiple sources of financing, including many community banks and credit unions that have plenty of money to lend.”
