Stellantis Temporarily Lays Off 900 Workers Amid Tariff Fallout
In response to recent tariffs, Stellantis has announced the temporary layoff of 900 workers across several plants in the U.S., including those in Michigan and Indiana. The layoffs come as the company pauses production at its Windsor assembly plant in Canada and other facilities in Mexico. Truck production at Warren is also set to pause due to an engine shortage. The decision follows a significant increase in tariffs that have triggered widespread job cuts across the auto industry, with Stellantis being one of the major U.S. automakers affected. Reports indicate that the automotive giant is navigating through a challenging landscape as it idles additional plants and assesses future production capabilities.
