U.S. automakers are set to get a break on some of the sweeping tariffs President Donald Trump is imposing. Yet even with the new waivers, the outlook for America's longest-lived carmakers remains cloudy, with General Motors saying Tuesday it was "reassessing" its earnings guidance in light of the uncertainty over the tariffs impact.

President Donald Trump signed a pair of executive orders on Tuesday to ease his tariffs targeting automobile and auto part imports, marking another drastic reversal of his tariff policy amid domestic industry concerns.

A slower phase-in for tariffs on auto parts will give manufacturers more time to ramp up manufacturing in the United States. Some analysts warn the tariffs will still drive car prices up.
