The UAW strike against Ford Motor Company has seen a major escalation, with the union, led by President Shawn Fain, ordering a walkout at Ford's largest and most profitable plant, the Kentucky Truck plant. This has halted production of high-profit pickup trucks and led to profit warnings from Ford. Despite Ford's 23% raise offer, Fain has announced a change in strategy, stating that further walkouts at additional facilities of the Detroit Three automakers will now occur randomly and without warning. This intensifies the pressure on the automakers as contract talks continue, although General Motors and Stellantis have been spared from additional strikes for now.
