Stellantis, the parent company of Chrysler, has taken legal action against the United Auto Workers (UAW) by filing a federal lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges that the UAW has breached its contract by threatening to strike due to delays in planned investments by the automaker.
The lawsuit, filed in the US District Court in the Central District of California, challenges the decision of UAW Local 230 in Los Angeles to conduct a strike authorization vote, which Stellantis claims violates the terms of the contract established last fall.
