PRESIDENT Donald Trump urged the chief executives of the Big Three US carmakers on Tuesday to build more cars in the country, pressing his pledge to bring jobs to America and discourage the car industry from investing in Mexico.
Mr Trump, who has threatened to impose 35 per cent tariffs on imported vehicles, opened a White House meeting with General Motors Co chief executive Mary Barra, Ford Motor Co's Mark Fields and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV's Sergio Marchionne by saying he wanted to see more vehicle plants in the United States.
