Stellantis Cuts Jeep Production in Detroit, Blames California
DETROIT—Stellantis is cutting one shift at its assembly plant here, where the Jeep Grand Cherokee is built, not because of a lack of demand but rather due to emissions regulations in California.
The manufacturer has revealed that the Mack site will drop from three shifts to two shifts “temporarily.” It is not yet known how many fewer Grand Cherokee models will be produced due to the change nor how the change will impact the 4,600 employees who work at the site.
