Ford Assembly Plant Locations
Here in Pine River, MN, we have pride in our country. This means many things, one of which being that we like to support U.S. manufacturing industries. Americans commonly associate Ford with the term “American-Made.” But are Ford’s vehicles really manufactured in the United States?

Well, rest easy, because overall the answer is yes. The majority of Ford’s vehicles sold to the North American market are put together in the U.S., with a few plants in Mexico and Canada. Here’s a list showing where each plant is located and which models they assemble:
- Chicago, IL: Ford Explorer, Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS

Where is Ford’s biggest plant?
That’s no moon- it’s the Ford Kansas City Assembly Plant! Originally opened for military production in 1951, Ford’s Kansas City plant produces more units than any other car manufacturing plant in the United States. With approximately 7,000 hourly workers employed across 4.7 million square feet of production space, this behemoth has been pumping out F-150s since 1957. It’s no surprise that it’s the single largest tax generator in Clay County, Missouri.
Where is Ford’s main headquarters?
Known as the Henry Ford II World Center, Ford’s main headquarters is located in Dearborn, Michigan. It was built in the 1950s at the peak of American optimism, at a time when, as columnist George Will puts it, “even buildings seemed streamlined for speed.” In the surrounding area, you’ll find a variety of other Ford-related hotspots: the historic Rouge plant (the largest integrated factory in the world at the time of it’s construction), the Henry Ford Museum, Dearborn’s Henry Ford Centennial Library, and Fair Lane, Henry Ford’s personal estate.

What other countries does Ford manufacture vehicles in?
It’s worth noting that, in addition to what we listed above, Ford does manufacture in a variety of plants around the world. For example, AutoAlliance Thailand is a plant located in Thailand (surprise) that Ford co-owns and operates with Mazda. However, the products built here are primarily sold in the South-East Asian market, along with being exported to other developing markets, and Europe. The same goes for Ford’s other factories outside North America- products built are sold to the surrounding markets. If you buy a car here in the U.S., on the other hand, you’re almost certainly getting a vehicle built at the plants listed above.
My husbands 2005 F-150 truck has a manual door crank on it. Over the weekend it broke. We have been looking everywhere to get a new regulator for his vehicle and no one seems to have the correct one. We were told that the manufacturer of the regulator made them wrong. When will the new manual regulators be available to purchase? Even auto repair places are having a problem getting the correct regulators in.
Post more! Seriously, I am really digging what you have written so far. I’ve scanning your blog right now for more things to read.
I wish more people would post valuable content like this. This is the first time I’ve been on your website, but after this, I doubt it will be the last time.
Ford Motor is so poorly led that it has to add 1,200 jobs in Pretoria, South Africa who are paid $2.45 an hour to make a $35,000 vehicle. Imagine if Ford moved its production out of Mexico and South Africa and hire American’s it might be a worthy company. But, I guess when you make a crap product, with crap labor, it shows that this company is going the way of GE. What coal was to energy Ford is to the auto industry-irrelevant.
To John the person who left comment #4.You’re an idiot
#4 John,
You watch your mouth about a legacy.
I recently bought a Ford Ranger in Nov, love my truck. I have to take the interstate to work and travel anywhere from 60 to 70 miles. It would be great if you could do something about the outside noise coming in the vehicle. It almost feels like I’m driving with the windows down.
Why didnt Ford ever remake the Ford Cortina. Same look just a bit better, it will definitely be a big big seller!!!
i have an idea for a better and very safe vehicle since am a ford buyer for 35 years wilshare it with ford first
I believe you need to update your information. The Kentucky Truck Plant is the largest Ford plant in North America that is under one roof. KTP has over 8000. Makes over 50% of all profits for Ford world wide. KTP makes the Super Duty and Lincoln
Navigator along with the Expedition.
How can I locate the family number on a Ford 2003 F-150. I was told to contact the manufacturer

I believe you missed the Dearborn Truck Plant which also builds the F-150.
I am Danny and I am a professional car mechanic in Las Vegas. this article for me because I love bloging
I am so sad and disappointed that I have had such a hard time with my Ford F-150. The back window seal continuously loosens and water and snow melts inside and gets the vehicle wet. I’ve had to get it fixed multiple times this has been going on since the day I purchased it. Before it hit 100,000 miles I had to replace the 4 wheel drive chamber on it, shortly after the Transmission had to be replaced and now at only 130,000 miles on it the entire motor has to be replaced on it. Was I sold a lemon or what!? I can’t afford to fix it and the mechanic stated that he doesn’t even recommend that I fix it that it isn’t worth it. This experience has really led me to think twice about purchasing another Ford product. I am extremely disappointed!!!
Is it true the Ford Ranger Raptor is coming out in 2021
I saw a ‘20 F-150 XLT, seems it was made at Dearborn and meant to sell in Canada. I guess due to Covid, or some other story, it ended up for sale in the US market instead. There were several at this particular dealer. The window sticker has information pertaining to Canada, like metric system figures, etc. Is this common? I inquired with the FTC about it as several years ago there was a problem with US dealers buying Canadian cars cheap with altered odometers. This truck was obviously brand new, just seems a little shady. In many years of buying cars I’ve never encountered this issue.
