The Jeep plant in Belvidere, having gone through several cutbacks in recent years, is facing a new round of layoffs.
Stellantis, owner of the Jeep brand, said it will make an unspecified number of staffing cuts at the Belvidere plant near Rockford. The reductions will come via retirement packages for eligible unionized workers and layoffs of hourly and salaried staff, the company said.
