13. None of the US automakers make vehicles in China for the US market
Also, some of the foreign vehicles made in the US have less US content that foreign made vehicles from the Big 3. For example, the Hyundai Sonata only has 37% domestic content while the Mexican built Ford Fusion has 40%. The Ford Fusion has even increased its domestic content to 55% for the 2009 model year (the 2009 Hyundai numbers weren't posted so I used 2008 figures).
