UAW workers go on strike at Stellantis plant in Indiana


United Auto Workers union members have gone on strike at the Stellantis casting plant in Indiana

ABC News
DETROIT -- United Auto Workers union members went on strike Saturday at the Stellantis casting plant in Indiana, citing health and safety issues including the company's alleged refusal to repair and replace the plant’s air conditioning and heating systems.

The 35-acre plant in Kokomo makes parts used in the power trains of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and RAM vehicles and a long-term strike could affect vehicle assembly lines across North America.

Stellantis says production had not been scheduled for this weekend and it hoped to resume negotiations as soon as possible on a contract with striking UAW Local 1166.

In a statement, Stellantis said it was committed “to providing a safe and healthy work environment for all employees. After bargaining in good faith for two days and presenting an offer we believed addressed the union’s concerns, we are disappointed by the UAW’s decision to walk out.”

The 1,200-worker plant, Kokomo Casting, is the world's largest die cast facility, according to Stellantis. It makes aluminum parts for components including transmissions and engine blocks.

The UAW local complained in a statement that Stellantis “claims it has no money to meet its membership's basic needs" — including providing clean uniforms — while ”making record profits and investing billions in a new battery plant across the street."

In May, Stellantis announced a $2.5 billion joint venture with Samsung to build an electric vehicle battery factory in Kokomo that is to employ 1,400 workers.

UAW local president David Willis did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment. A person who answered the phone at union offices said he was preparing for a resumption in negotiations.

The casting plant is to be retooled to produce engine blocks for hybrid-electric vehicles.

Stellantis, formed last year with the merger of Fiat Chrysler and France’s PSA Peugeot, had said it would build two electric vehicle battery factories in North America. The other is slated for Windsor, Ontario.

just ordered today so I’m sure I won’t see until Nov/Dec sometime, super disappointed I could not order the dual door option with this color. I custom built half doors with all power for my ‘16 Hyper Green with all Mopar parts. Looks like I’ll be doing the same for this one.

I have a question if any can answer, when is the build sheet normally available via tracker or crypto? Went into production on 9/8 just curious

Mine took 2 days from when Jeep tracker said it was in production before the build sheet showed on crypto.

Yay! I’m finally in production. Estimated delivery 10/10!!! ?

I once was lost, but now I'm found

Congrats, let us know how things go at the dealer. I would think it should be delivered before the 29th, but you never know...

My dealer's about a 1.5-hour drive from Toledo. Should I assume my Jeep will be delivered on a truck? Surely not a train?

I went to a local dealership today to look at my color in person (HVY) since I hadn't seen it before and I ordered 3 months ago. Just waiting for it to ship out since it's built.
THEY HAD 4 HIGH TIDES ON THE LOT! 3 in HVY and 1 in Black. Kinda neat, I like the extra little lip on the fender flares.

I just received a text from the dealer that my 2023 Sting Gray 392 is being unloaded as we speak!!

They are closed Sundays, so I will be taking delivery on Tuesday!

was this a ‘22 carryover order?

No better feeling than knowing your jeep is rolling down the assembly line!

No better feeling than knowing your jeep is rolling down the assembly line!

I’m willing to bet that knowing it’s rolling into the dealership might feel better…
