VERBATIM: No word from the union on whether a deadline had been set. However, Stellantis says talks are ongoing and workers are still on the job. The UAW says grievances have been filed about problems with ventilation fans, personal protective equipment, flooding, oil leaks and other issues. The UAW says a strike could affect production of the Ram pickup, Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Wagoneer.
