Stellantis Denies UAW Allegations of Broken Labor Promises

The automaker faces potential strikes as the union claims Stellantis failed to meet 2023 contract commitments.

Stellantis has refuted claims by the United Auto Workers (UAW) that it has not honored its 2023 labor agreement.
The UAW alleges Stellantis is delaying the reopening of the Belvidere, Illinois plant and plans to shift Dodge Durango production out of the U.S.
Stellantis asserts that market volatility and other factors have affected the timelines and investments agreed upon in the contract.
UAW President Shawn Fain has accused Stellantis of prioritizing short-term gains over long-term commitments to American workers.
Stellantis reported a significant decline in profits and sales in the first half of 2024, citing operational challenges in North America.
