Thanks to its large domestic manufacturing presence, Ford hasn’t been impacted by tariffs quite to the same degree as its peers, but that doesn’t mean The Blue Oval is exempt from that financial pain, either. Rather, Ford sources parts and raw materials from other countries like every automaker, meaning that it’s been scrambling to find ways to mitigate the impact of tariffs on its business for months now. Regardless, Ford still wound up dishing out a substantial amount of money due to those same tariffs in the second quarter of 2025.
According to Ford’s Q2 2025 earnings call with investors, the company posted a record revenue of $50.2 billion with a net loss of $36 million, of which $800 million came from adverse net tariff-related impacts. Aside from that, the rest of Ford’s Q2 loss mostly stemmed from other “special items,” which the automaker stated were “a field service action and expenses related to a previously announced cancellation of an electric vehicle program.”
Thus far, Ford has worked to mitigate the impact of these tariffs on its bottom line in various ways, including stockpiling parts that comply with existing trade agreements, as well as reworking contracts with its suppliers. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has reached trade deals resulting in some tariff relief with certain countries, but many uncertainties remain. For example, the U.S. Commerce Department plans to impose a 93.5 percent tariff on graphite coming from China, which almost exclusively comes from that part of the world at the moment and is used in the batteries that power nearly all EVs sold in the U.S. as well.
As for Ford’s competition, it’s feeling the financial sting of tariffs on an even greater scale, as Ford Authority previously reported. General Motors posted a recorded $1.9 billion in net income on $47 billion in revenue in Q2 2025, which is a 35.4 percent drop in net income and a 1.8 percent decrease in revenue compared to Q2 2024, but didn’t disclose how much tariffs cost its business over that time frame., specifically As for Stellantis, it posted a $2.7 billion loss in the first half of 2025, of which $351 million stems from tariff-related expenses.

If a company can afford to pay one guy 20+million a year i don't wanna hear how much tarrifs cost them.
Other country's have had tarrifs on American goods for years but now that Trump is doing it back all the libtards are hyper focused on how much there billion dollar company's are losing.
Amen brother, not to mention the cost of all the recalls.
Hey Farley there's a solution to that: move the production back to the US instead of coming up with lame ass pat-yourself-on-the-back commercials highlighting how much you do for the US and how you did not take the bailout 20 years ago.
