Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I mean, is Stellantis really American? Genuine question, as my understanding is that their ownership is primarily French/Italian.
It's... complicated.
They still manufacture in the US, but I think most of the engineering work is no longer done by Mopar. The newer Jeeps are enlarged Fiat hatchbacks (because I will not call the Stelvio an SUV, it's a hatch on stilts, get a damn Giulia if you're looking at Alfas) that you can get with either the bigger, but old Chrysler Pentastar or the ancient Hemi... Or the tiny FCA four pot.
To be fair, the WK generation Grand Cherokee already had a lot of Mercedes engineering, but other than the NAG1 and the OM642, your engine and transmission options were still Mopar engineered. The switchgear in the cabin was all Mopar in the WK. WK2 took that platform and slowly added Fiat touches (some of them good, like the upgrade to the 8HP transmission), but WL seems to be all Fiat.
Well, the cars are originally American.
By what definition? I don't think a Chrysler has been manufactured in America since 2016.

Lincoln is also a division of Ford
I forgot Buick too.
Most Buicks are made in China…
Some are made in Michigan…. The point was there are cars manufactured in the US, when the user said there were none.
tons of car parts are made in the US
lower quality parts, though. Mexican plants seem to always have higher quality reports

They are at least 70% in the US
