"Automakers are facing billions of dollars in additional costs from Trump's tariffs, particularly those levied on imported autos and car parts. Those tariffs, as well as levies targeting steel and aluminum, were implemented under a law that gives the president authority to impose import taxes on national security grounds. The duties were unaffected by the Supreme Court's ruling that struck down Trump's broader import taxes imposed on many countries."
"Detroit's automakers asked the White House to shield them from new tariffs that President Donald Trump vowed to impose after the Supreme Court struck down most of his global duties. The American Automotive Policy Council, which represents General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co. and Jeep-maker Stellantis NV, sent a letter to Trump's trade team on Friday seeking to preserve a framework that protects them from paying multiple import taxes on vehicles and parts,"
