Ford Motor (NYSE: F) sees FY14 North America margins near 8 percent, which is the low-end of the company's outlook. The company noted that a $500 million recall hurt performance.
The company also anticipates losing $1 billion in South America for FY14, largely attributable to inflation and currency crisis. The company also sees a large loss in 2015.
UPDATE - Ford is planning pre-tax loss of $1.2 billion in Europe this year. The company also said it will also lose $250 million in Europe during 2015, which is worse than expected.
