The UAW/CAW Car List

The UAW and CAW have released a list of vehicles which they endorse, because they are assembled by unionized plants in North America.  There are some  "Big 3" vehicles which are notably missing because they are assembled in Mexico, such as the Chevrolet HHR.  Others have an * because some variants are built in Mexico while others are built in US or Canadian union plants, such as the GM pickups.

There are some "foreign" cars which are UAW kosher:

  • Mazda6 (Flat Rock, MI, along with Mustang)
  • Mazda Tribute (Kansas City, along with Escape)
  • Mitsubishi Eclipse (MMNA Normal, IL)
  • Mitsubishi Galant (MMNA Normal, IL)
  • Mitsubishi Endeavor (MMNA Normal, IL)
  • Toyota Corolla/Matrix (NUMMI, but not for long)
  • Toyota Tacoma (NUMMI)
  • VW Routan (Windsor, with Chrysler vans)
Some Detroit 3 vehicles which are assembled in Mexico:
  • Chevrolet HHR
  • Chevrolet Avalanche
  • Chrysler PT Cruiser
  • Ford Fusion/Lincoln MKZ
  • Saturn Vue
