  2. A foreign vehicle is defined as any car or truck which carries a non-Ford nameplate and which has been assembled outside of the United States or Canada (excluding General Motors or Chrysler vehicles assembled in the United States or Canada). A foreign nameplate is defined as the parent company manufacturing the car or truck, i.e. Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen, Alfa-Romeo, etc.
  3. Vehicles which are assembled in the United States by UAW personnel, e.g. Mazda, or are assembled in the United States by Ford-UAW personnel, e.g. Nissan Quest will also be exempt from this policy.
