CUSMA breakdown could mean hundreds of thousands of jobs, a trillion dollars lost: report Now, U.S. auto executives worry that U.S. proposals floated ahead of talks scheduled with Mexican trade officials next month could jack up costs even further. One of the most contentious points for automakers is Washington's demand that vehicles contain at least 50 per cent U.S.-made content to qualify for lower tariffs, as That requirement, as well as a proposal to increase overall North American vehicle content from the current 75 per cent level, would add at least $2 billion US in annual costs for each Detroit automaker, according to estimates at two automakers.
