"To be clear, Stellantis has abided, and will continue to abide, by the agreement the parties reached in 2023," Stellantis' North America COO Carlos Zarlenga said in an email to the UAW.

United Auto Workers union President Shawn Fain said Tuesday the union plans to hold strike authorization votes against Stellantis because the automaker is failing to live up to guarantees it made in the 2023 labor deal it reached with the union at the conclusion of a six-week strike.
