U.S. Secretary criticizes Ford links to China

Ford faced criticism from U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg over its reliance on Chinese technologies, particularly batteries from CATL, at its American plants. The secretary expressed concern that this move threatens national security and economic independence, viewing dependence on state-supported Chinese companies as a troubling mark on a historic American brand. In response, Ford clarified that the technology is used under a limited licensing agreement controlled by the company and does not involve joint ventures or Chinese ownership. Ford's recent $3 billion investment, which created 1,700 jobs, has helped defend its image amid government scrutiny.
