SUMMARY: President Trump has announced a 25% tariff on foreign-made cars, effective in less than a week, aiming to spur economic growth. Consumers may soon face higher prices as new tariffs impact assembly lines and repair shops. Some vendors are preemptively raising prices, which is causing concern among consumers. While some car manufacturers with U.S. factories support the move, others without local production will face tariffs. The goal is to bring manufacturing back to the U.S. The United Auto Workers Union backs this initiative, anticipating it will create more domestic jobs. Economists suggest consumers buy now and maintain existing vehicles.

President Trump has announced a 25 percent tariff on foreign-made cars. It goes into effect in less than a week, and consumers may already be feeling the impact.
