Fitch Ratings has lowered its long-term credit rating for Ford Motor Company one level, from BBB+ to BBB, while maintaining a negative outlook.


The new rating is two levels above so-called “junk,” preserving investment grade status.


“While we’re disappointed, we appreciate that Fitch Ratings recognises our liquidity and substantial progress,” Ford responded in a statement.


“We recognise the challenges facing us and we are committed to overcoming them through the acceleration of our business plan.”
