Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
Restructuring and Other Initiatives | Restructuring and Other Initiatives We have executed various restructuring and other initiatives and we may execute additional initiatives in the future, if necessary, to streamline manufacturing capacity and reduce other costs to improve the utilization of remaining facilities. To the extent these programs involve voluntary separations, a liability is generally recorded at the time offers to employees are accepted. To the extent these programs provide separation benefits in accordance with pre-existing agreements, a liability is recorded once the amount is probable and reasonably estimable. If employees are involuntarily terminated, a liability is generally recorded at the communication date. Related charges are recorded in Automotive and other cost of sales and Automotive and other selling, general and administrative expense. The following table summarizes the reserves and charges related to restructuring and other initiatives, including postemployment benefit reserves and charges:

In the three months ended March 31, 2024, restructuring and other initiatives included strategic activities in GMNA related to Buick dealerships. We recorded charges of $96 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024, which are included in the table above, and incurred $162 million in net cash outflows resulting from these dealer restructurings. Cumulatively, we have incurred charges of approximately $1.2 billion and net cash outflows of $956 million related to this initiative. The remaining $220 million is expected to be paid by the end of 2024. In March 2023, we announced a voluntary separation program (VSP) to accelerate attrition related to the cost reduction program announced in January 2023. We recorded charges in GMNA of $1.0 billion in the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily related to employee separation charges of $905 million, which are reflected in the table above, and non-cash pension curtailment and settlement charges of approximately $130 million, not reflected in the table above. As of March 31, 2024, we have incurred $878 million of cash outflows resulting from the VSP. This program was substantially complete at March 31, 2024. In October 2023, Cruise voluntarily paused all of its driverless, supervised and manual AV operations in the U.S. while it examines its processes, systems and tools. In conjunction with these actions, Cruise recorded charges before noncontrolling interest of $529 million in the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily related to supplier related charges of $212 million and employee separation charges of $67 million, both of which are included in the table above. Additionally, Cruise recorded non-cash restructuring charges of $250 million primarily related to impairments, which are not reflected in the table above. As of March 31, 2024, we have incurred $70 million of cash outflows resulting from these restructuring activities. We expect the remaining cash outflows related to these activities of approximately $209 million to be complete by the end of 2024.
