DETROIT (Reuters) – The United Auto Workers union plans to hold strike authorization votes at one or more Stellantis (NYSE: ) locales in the coming days, union president Shawn Fain said on Tuesday, which could lead to a disruptive walkout against Manufacturer of jeeps.

The UAW leader has called out Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares in recent months for failing to honor product and investment commitments the automaker accepted after the union staged a six-week walkout last fall .

“We’re still waiting for the company to honor the vast majority of its product commitments. Not all of them are contract violations yet. But we’re watching them closely and preparing to take action,” Fain said in a video address Tuesday night.

Local Stellantis affiliates filed grievances over the company’s alleged plan to move production of the Dodge Durango out of the United States, union leaders said this week.

The union also filed unfair labor practices complaints with the National Labor Relations Board against Stellantis on Monday, saying the company refused to provide information about its future product plans.
