- The panel found that the U.S. interpretation of USMCA vehicle-content rules was inconsistent with the agreement.
- The dispute concerned the requirement that 75% of vehicle components originate in North America and whether, as Mexico and Canada argued, core-part content could be rounded up to 100%.
- The United States must now agree with Canada and Mexico on implementing the decision; otherwise, retaliatory tariffs could follow, while Washington reviews next steps.
- Canada and Mexico welcomed the decision, while a spokesperson for the U.S. Trade Representative called it disappointing and said it could lead to fewer American jobs.
It shows that the dispute-resolution vehicle within the USMCA works.— Flavio Volpe, president of Canada's Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association, said.
