Stellantis

Stellantis laid off approximately 20 salaried, non-union employees at its Brampton assembly plant on March 6, 2026, for a 55-week period. The layoffs follow the company's decision to move Jeep Compass production from Brampton to Belvidere, Illinois due to U.S. tariffs on Canadian autos.

Stellantis laid off a small number of workers at its Windsor Assembly Plant in Ontario on Friday, August 15, 2025, with one worker estimating approximately 100 employees were affected. The layoffs are attributed to volume adjustments and a shift away from electric muscle car production, following the company's postponement of the 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T model.

Stellantis announced a two-week shutdown of the Windsor Assembly Plant resulting in the layoff of approximately 6,000 autoworkers. The shutdown was documented on April 4, 2025, when workers left after the last day shift before the closure.

Stellantis laid off 3,200 workers at its Brampton Assembly plant in Ontario after pausing a retooling plan in February 2025 and subsequently moving production of the new electric Jeep Compass to the United States. The decision, announced October 14, 2025, was attributed to U.S. tariff pressure and trade agreement compliance issues, leaving thousands of Canadian families facing financial instability.

Stellantis idled its Brampton assembly plant in December 2023 to retool for electric vehicle production, temporarily laying off 3,000 workers. On October 14, 2025, the company announced the planned Jeep Compass electric SUV would be built in Illinois instead, leaving the plant's future uncertain and workers facing potential permanent layoff notices.
