Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
PRESENTATION	PRESENTATION Our financial statements are presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. We show certain of our financial statements on both a consolidated and a sector basis for our Automotive and Financial Services sectors. Intercompany items have been eliminated in both the consolidated and sector balance sheets. Where the presentation of these intercompany eliminations or consolidated adjustments differs between the consolidated and sector financial statements, reconciliations of certain line items are explained below in this Note or in the related financial statements and footnotes. In the opinion of management, these unaudited financial statements reflect a fair statement of the results of operations and financial condition of Ford Motor Company, its consolidated subsidiaries, and consolidated VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiary for the periods and at the dates presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. Reference should be made to the financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (“ 2014 Form 10-K Report”). For purposes of this report, “Ford,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” or similar references mean Ford Motor Company, our consolidated subsidiaries, and our consolidated VIEs of which we are the primary beneficiary, unless the context requires otherwise. We reclassified certain prior year amounts in our consolidated financial statements to conform to current year presentation. Adoption of New Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-11, Transfers and Servicing - Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings and Disclosures. On January 1, 2015, we adopted the new accounting standard that changes the accounting for repurchase-to-maturity transactions and repurchase financing arrangements. The new standard also requires additional disclosures for certain transfers of financial assets with agreements that both entitle and obligate the transferor to repurchase the transferred assets from the transferee. The adoption of this accounting standard did not impact our financial statements or financial statement disclosures. Reconciliations between Consolidated and Sector Financial Statements Sector to Consolidated Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities. The difference between the total assets and total liabilities as presented on our sector balance sheet and consolidated balance sheet is the result of netting deferred income tax assets and liabilities. The reconciliation between the totals for the sector and consolidated balance sheets was as follows (in millions): June 30, December 31, Sector balance sheet presentation of deferred income tax assets Automotive sector current deferred income tax assets $ 2,779 $ 2,039 Automotive sector non-current deferred income tax assets 12,151 13,331 Financial Services sector deferred income tax assets (a) 177 185 Total 15,107 15,555 Reclassification for netting of deferred income taxes (2,610 ) (1,916 ) Consolidated balance sheet presentation of deferred income tax assets $ 12,497 $ 13,639 Sector balance sheet presentation of deferred income tax liabilities Automotive sector current deferred income tax liabilities $ 334 $ 270 Automotive sector non-current deferred income tax liabilities 301 367 Financial Services sector deferred income tax liabilities 2,553 1,849 Total 3,188 2,486 Reclassification for netting of deferred income taxes (2,610 ) (1,916 ) Consolidated balance sheet presentation of deferred income tax liabilities $ 578 $ 570 __________ (a) Financial Services deferred income tax assets are included in Financial Services Other assets on our sector balance sheet.

Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted [Abstract]
Description of New Accounting Pronouncements Not yet Adopted [Text Block]	ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED ASU 2014-09, Revenue - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new accounting standard that requires recognition of revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard supersedes virtually all present U.S. GAAP guidance on revenue recognition and requires the use of more estimates and judgments than the present standards, as well as additional disclosures. The FASB has voted to approve a one-year deferral of the effective date from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2018, while allowing for early adoption as of January 1, 2017. The new accounting standard is expected to have an impact to our income statement, balance sheet, and financial statement disclosures and we are reviewing our arrangements to evaluate the impact and method of adoption. The FASB also issued the following standards, none of which are expected to have a material impact to our financial statements or financial statement disclosures. Standard Effective Date 2015-09 Insurance - Disclosures about Short-Duration Contracts January 1, 2016 2015-07 Fair Value Measurement - Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) January 1, 2016 2015-05 Internal-Use Software - Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement January 1, 2016 2015-03 Imputation of Interest - Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs January 1, 2016 2015-02 Consolidation - Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis January 1, 2016 2015-01 Extraordinary and Unusual Items - Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items January 1, 2016 2014-16 Derivatives and Hedging - Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity January 1, 2016 2014-13 Consolidation - Measuring the Financial Assets and the Financial Liabilities of a Consolidated Collateralized Financing Entity January 1, 2016 2014-12 Stock Compensation - Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period January 1, 2016 2014-15 Going Concern - Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern December 31, 2016 2015-11 Inventory - Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory January 1, 2017

Receivables [Abstract]
FINANCE RECEIVABLES	FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTOR FINANCE RECEIVABLES Our Financial Services sector, primarily Ford Credit, segments finance receivables into “consumer” and “non-consumer” portfolios. The receivables are generally secured by the vehicles, inventory, or other property being financed. Finance receivables, net were as follows (in millions): June 30, December 31, Consumer Retail financing, gross $ 57,646 $ 55,856 Unearned interest supplements (1,739 ) (1,760 ) Consumer finance receivables 55,907 54,096 Non-Consumer Dealer financing 32,093 31,340 Other financing 1,131 1,026 Non-Consumer finance receivables 33,224 32,366 Total recorded investment $ 89,131 $ 86,462 Recorded investment in finance receivables $ 89,131 $ 86,462 Allowance for credit losses (335 ) (321 ) Finance receivables, net (a) $ 88,796 $ 86,141 Net finance receivables subject to fair value (b) $ 87,026 $ 84,468 Fair value 88,315 85,941 __________ (a) On the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , $6 billion and $5 billion , respectively, are reclassified to Other receivables, net, resulting in Finance receivables, net of $82.8 billion and $81.1 billion , respectively. (b) At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , excludes $1.8 billion and $1.7 billion , respectively, of certain receivables (primarily direct financing leases) that are not subject to fair value disclosure requirements. Excluded from finance receivables at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , was $185 million and $191 million , respectively, of accrued uncollected interest, which we report in Other assets on the balance sheet. Included in the recorded investment in finance receivables at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were consumer receivables of $26.9 billion and $24.4 billion and non-consumer receivables of $23.1 billion and $21.8 billion , respectively, that have been sold for legal purposes in securitization transactions but continue to be reported in our consolidated financial statements. The receivables are available only for payment of the debt issued by, and other obligations of, the securitization entities that are parties to those securitization transactions; they are not available to pay the other obligations or the claims of Ford Credit’s other creditors. Ford Credit holds the right to receive the excess cash flows not needed to pay the debt issued by, and other obligations of, the securitization entities that are parties to those securitization transactions (see Note 11 for additional information). NOTE 4. FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTOR FINANCE RECEIVABLES (Continued) Aging For all finance receivables, we define “past due” as any payment, including principal and interest, that is at least 31 days past the contractual due date . The recorded investment of consumer receivables greater than 90 days past due and still accruing interest was $13 million and $17 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The recorded investment of non-consumer receivables greater than 90 days past due and still accruing interest was $1 million and $3 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The aging analysis of our finance receivables balances were as follows (in millions): June 30, December 31, Consumer 31-60 days past due $ 566 $ 718 61-90 days past due 85 97 91-120 days past due 23 29 Greater than 120 days past due 39 52 Total past due 713 896 Current 55,194 53,200 Consumer finance receivables 55,907 54,096 Non-Consumer Total past due 110 117 Current 33,114 32,249 Non-Consumer finance receivables 33,224 32,366 Total recorded investment $ 89,131 $ 86,462 Credit Quality Consumer Portfolio. Credit quality ratings for consumer receivables are based on aging. Refer to the aging table above. Consumer receivables credit quality ratings are as follows: • Pass – current to 60 days past due • Special Mention – 61 to 120 days past due and in intensified collection status • Substandard – greater than 120 days past due and for which the uncollectible portion of the receivables has already been charged off, as measured using the fair value of collateral Non-Consumer Portfolio. Dealers are assigned to one of four groups according to risk ratings as follows: • Group I – strong to superior financial metrics • Group II – fair to favorable financial metrics • Group III – marginal to weak financial metrics • Group IV – poor financial metrics, including dealers classified as uncollectible NOTE 4. FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTOR FINANCE RECEIVABLES (Continued) The credit quality analysis of our dealer financing receivables was as follows (in millions): June 30, December 31, Dealer Financing Group I $ 24,088 $ 23,125 Group II 6,500 6,350 Group III 1,402 1,783 Group IV 103 82 Total recorded investment $ 32,093 $ 31,340 Impaired Receivables Impaired consumer receivables include accounts that have been rewritten or modified in reorganization proceedings pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code that are considered to be troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), as well as all accounts greater than 120 days past due . Impaired non-consumer receivables represent accounts with dealers that have weak or poor financial metrics or dealer financing that has been modified in TDRs. The recorded investment of consumer receivables that were impaired at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $380 million , or 0.7% of consumer receivables, and $415 million , or 0.8% of consumer receivables, respectively. The recorded investment of non-consumer receivables that were impaired at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $126 million , or 0.4% of non-consumer receivables, and $105 million , or 0.3% of non-consumer receivables, respectively. Impaired finance receivables are evaluated both collectively and specifically.

Variable Interest Entities [Abstract]
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES	VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES VIEs of Which We are Not the Primary Beneficiary Certain of our joint ventures are VIEs, in which the power to direct economically significant activities is shared with the joint venture partner. Our investments in these joint ventures are accounted for as equity method investments. Our maximum exposure to any potential losses associated with these joint ventures is limited to our investment, including loans, and was $280 million and $307 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. VIEs of Which We are the Primary Beneficiary Securitization Entities Through Ford Credit, we securitize, transfer, and service financial assets associated with consumer finance receivables, operating leases, and wholesale loans. Our securitization transactions typically involve the legal transfer of financial assets to bankruptcy remote special purpose entities (“SPEs”). The third-party investors in these securitization entities have legal recourse only to the assets securing the debt and do not have recourse to us, except for the customary representation and warranty provisions. In addition, the cash flows generated by the assets are restricted only to pay such liabilities. We generally retain economic interests in the asset-backed securitization transactions, which are retained in the form of senior or subordinated interests, cash reserve accounts, residual interests, and servicing rights. For accounting purposes, we are precluded from recording the transfers of assets in securitization transactions as sales. In most cases, the bankruptcy remote SPEs meet the definition of VIEs for which we have determined we have both the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entity that could be significant, and would therefore also be consolidated. We account for all securitization transactions as if they were secured financing and therefore the assets, liabilities and related activity of these transactions are consolidated in our financial results and are included in amounts presented on the face of our consolidated balance sheet (see Note 4 for additional information).

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES	DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to global market risks, including the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, certain commodity prices, and interest rates. To manage these risks, we enter into highly effective derivatives contracts. We have elected to apply hedge accounting to certain derivatives. Derivatives that are designated in hedging relationships are evaluated for effectiveness using regression analysis at the time they are designated and throughout the hedge period. Some derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting; for others, we elect not to apply hedge accounting. Income Effect of Derivative Financial Instruments The gains/(losses), by hedge designation, recorded in income for the periods ended June 30 were as follows (in millions): Second Quarter First Half 2015 2014 2015 2014 Automotive Sector Cash flow hedges (a) Reclassified from AOCI to income $ (90 ) $ 92 $ (136 ) $ 160 Ineffectiveness — — — — Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments Foreign currency exchange contracts (116 ) (17 ) 145 (61 ) Commodity contracts (15 ) 47 (25 ) 35 Total $ (221 ) $ 122 $ (16 ) $ 134 Financial Services Sector Fair value hedges Interest rate contracts Net interest settlements and accruals excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness $ 89 $ 72 $ 177 $ 141 Ineffectiveness (b) (10 ) 5 (4 ) 10 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments Interest rate contracts (18 ) (9 ) (61 ) (27 ) Foreign currency exchange contracts (65 ) (25 ) — (30 ) Cross-currency interest rate swap contracts (77 ) (11 ) 12 (16 ) Total $ (81 ) $ 32 $ 124 $ 78 __________ (a) For the second quarter and first half of 2015 , $217 million loss and a $367 million loss, respectively, were recorded in Other comprehensive income . For the second quarter and first half of 2014 , $338 million loss and a $208 million loss, respectively, were recorded in Other comprehensive income. (b) For the second quarter and first half of 2015 , hedge ineffectiveness reflects the net change in fair value on derivatives of $249 million loss and $28 million loss, respectively, and change in value on hedged debt attributable to the change in benchmark interest rates of $239 million gain and $24 million gain, respectively. For the second quarter and first half of 2014 , hedge ineffectiveness reflects the net change in fair value on derivatives of $162 million gain and $267 million gain, respectively, and change in value on hedged debt attributable to the change in benchmark interest rates of $157 million loss and $257 million loss, respectively. NOTE 12. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES (Continued) Balance Sheet Effect of Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative financial instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value, presented on a gross basis, and include an adjustment for non-performance risk. Notional amounts are presented on a gross basis. The notional amounts of the derivative financial instruments do not necessarily represent amounts exchanged by the parties and, therefore, are not a direct measure of our financial risk exposure.

Employee Separation Actions and Exit and Disposal Activities [Abstract]
Employee Separation Actions and Exit and Disposal Activities [Text Block]	EMPLOYEE SEPARATION ACTIONS AND EXIT AND DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES Automotive Sector Business Restructuring - Europe In October 2012, we committed to commence a transformation plan for our Europe operations. As part of this plan, we closed two manufacturing facilities in the United Kingdom in 2013 and closed our assembly plant in Genk, Belgium at the end of 2014. The Genk closure was subject to an information and consultation process with employee representatives, which was completed in June 2013. The costs related to these closures were recorded beginning in the second quarter of 2013. Separation-related costs (excluding pension costs) totaled $1.1 billion and were recorded in Automotive cost of sales and Selling, administrative and other expenses. These costs include both the costs associated with voluntary separation programs in the United Kingdom and involuntary employee actions at Genk, as well as payments to suppliers. The separation-related activity recorded in Other liabilities and deferred revenue , for the periods ended June 30 was as follows (in millions): Second Quarter First Half 2015 2014 2015 2014 Beginning balance $ 257 $ 588 $ 730 $ 497 Changes in accruals (4 ) 107 (6 ) 219 Payments (88 ) (47 ) (525 ) (69 ) Foreign currency translation 8 (5 ) (26 ) (4 ) Ending balance $ 173 $ 643 $ 173 $ 643 Business Restructuring - Australia In May 2013, we committed to commence a transformation plan for our Australia operations. As part of this plan, we will be closing manufacturing operations in Australia in October 2016. In August 2013, a two-phase separation plan was approved, which included a line-speed reduction in June 2014, ahead of the final closure. The costs related to the line-speed reduction were recorded throughout 2014. The costs related to the second phase of the transformation plan were recorded beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014 after the Enterprise bargaining agreement was agreed and ratified by the local government and we determined these payments were probable. Separation-related costs recorded in Automotive cost of sales and Selling, administrative and other expenses, include both the costs associated with voluntary separation programs, and involuntary employee actions in Australia, as well as payments to suppliers. The separation-related activity recorded in Other liabilities and deferred revenue , for the period ended June 30, was as follows (in millions): Second Quarter First Half 2015 2015 Beginning balance $ 116 $ 111 Changes in accruals 17 31 Payments (9 ) (10 ) Foreign currency translation 2 (6 ) Ending balance $ 126 $ 126 Our current estimate of total separation-related costs (excluding pension costs) for the Australian transformation plan is approximately $230 million . The separation-related costs not yet recorded will be expensed as the employees continue to support Australia plant operations.

Changes in Investments in Affiliates [Abstract]
Changes in Investments in Affiliates [Text Block]	CHANGES IN INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES Automotive Sector Ford Sollers. We formed the Ford Sollers joint venture with Sollers OJSC (“Sollers”) in October 2011 to operate in Russia. Upon contribution of our then wholly-owned operations in Russia to the joint venture in exchange for cash, notes receivable and a 50% equity interest in the new joint venture, we deconsolidated the related assets and liabilities and recorded an equity method investment in Ford Sollers at its fair value. The fair value was calculated using a discounted cash flow analysis with our best assumptions of relevant factors at that time. During the second quarter of 2014, we recorded a $329 million pre-tax impairment as a result of factors in the Russian market, including a weaker ruble, lower industry volume, and industry segmentation changes that negatively impacted the sales of Focus. These factors reduced our expected cash flows for Ford Sollers in the near-term, thereby reducing the investment’s fair value recoverability. The non-cash charge was reported in Equity in net income of affiliated companies . On March 31, 2015, we and Sollers agreed to certain changes to the structure of the joint venture and the related shareholders’ agreement to support the business in the near term and provide a platform for future growth in this important market. The changes include Ford providing additional funding to the joint venture and gaining a controlling interest in the joint venture through the acquisition of preferred shares. As a result, effective March 31, 2015, we have consolidated the joint venture for financial reporting purposes. In addition, the partners will have future rights to purchase, or have purchased, Sollers’ 50% interest in the ordinary shares of the joint venture at a value established using a pre-determined framework. Both partners will continue to work jointly to improve the business outlook for the Ford Sollers joint venture by expanding its vehicle lineup to better meet the needs of Russian customers and further investing in the localization of component manufacturing. During the second quarter of 2015, we finalized our purchase accounting. We measured the fair value of Ford Sollers using the income approach. We used cash flows that reflect the Ford Sollers business plan, aligned with assumptions a market participant would have made. We assumed a discount rate of 17% based on the appropriate weighted average cost of capital, adjusted for perceived business risks related to regulatory concerns, political tensions, foreign exchange volatility, and risk associated with the Russian automotive industry. The following acquired assets and liabilities were measured at fair value and recorded on our balance sheet (in millions): March 31, Assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 40 Other receivables, net 113 Inventories 258 Net property 541 Other assets 25 Total assets of Ford Sollers (a) $ 977 Liabilities Payables $ 514 Debt 370 Total liabilities of Ford Sollers (a) $ 884 __________ (a) At March 31, 2015, intercompany assets of $10 million and intercompany liabilities of $394 million have been eliminated in both the consolidated and sector balance sheet. NOTE 17. CHANGES IN INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES (Continued) In addition, we recorded a $93 million redeemable noncontrolling interest in the mezzanine section of our balance sheet, reflecting the redemption features embedded in the 50% equity interest in the joint venture that is held by Sollers. To determine the noncontrolling interest value, we used a Monte Carlo simulation analysis that incorporated market participant assumptions for asset volatilities and credit spreads. Blue Diamond Truck, S. de R.L. (“BDT”). BDT was a Mexican joint venture created in 2001 by Ford and Navistar that produced medium duty commercial trucks. During the second quarter of 2015, we sold our entire equity interest in BDT to a Navistar affiliate and the joint venture was terminated. As a result of the sale of our interest in BDT, we recognized a pre-tax gain of $19 million , which was reported in Automotive interest income and other income/(loss), net .

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
SEGMENT INFORMATION	SEGMENT INFORMATION Our operating activity consists of two operating sectors, Automotive and Financial Services. Our Automotive sector includes the sale of Ford and Lincoln brand vehicles and related service parts and accessories. The Financial Services sector primarily includes our vehicle-related financing and leasing activities at Ford Credit. Prior to January 1, 2015, we had an Other Financial Services segment, which included holding companies, real estate, and financing of some Volvo vehicles in Europe. Effective January 1, 2015, we realigned the business operations of this segment to our Automotive sector on a prospective basis. The impact of this change on prior periods presented would have been immaterial. NOTE 19.

Commitments and Contingencies (Notes)	6 Months Ended

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Commitments and contingencies primarily consist of guarantees and indemnifications, litigation and claims, and warranty. Guarantees and Indemnifications Guarantees and indemnifications are recorded at fair value at their inception. We regularly review our performance risk under these arrangements, and in the event it becomes probable we will be required to perform under guarantee or indemnity, the amount of probable payment is recorded. We guarantee debt and lease obligations of certain joint ventures, as well as certain financial obligations of outside third parties, including suppliers, to support our business and economic growth. Expiration dates vary through 2033 , and guarantees will terminate on payment and/or cancellation of the underlying obligation. A payment by us would be triggered by failure of the joint venture or other third party to fulfill its obligation covered by the guarantee. In some circumstances, we are entitled to recover from a third party amounts paid by us under the guarantee. However, our ability to enforce these rights is sometimes stayed until the guaranteed party is paid in full, and may be limited in the event of insolvency of the third party or other circumstances. In the ordinary course of business, we execute contracts involving indemnifications standard in the industry and indemnifications specific to a transaction, such as the sale of a business. These indemnifications might include and are not limited to claims relating to any of the following: environmental, tax, and shareholder matters; intellectual property rights; power generation contracts; governmental regulations and employment-related matters; dealer, supplier, and other commercial contractual relationships; and financial matters, such as securitizations. Performance under these indemnities generally would be triggered by a breach of terms of the contract or by a third-party claim. While some of these indemnifications are limited in nature, many of them do not limit potential payment. Therefore, we are unable to estimate a maximum amount of future payments that could result from claims made under these unlimited indemnities. The maximum potential payments and the carrying value of recorded liabilities related to guarantees and limited indemnities were as follows (in millions): June 30, December 31, Maximum potential payments $ 592 $ 592 Carrying value of recorded liabilities related to guarantees and limited indemnities 17 17 Litigation and Claims Various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (generally, “matters”) are pending or may be instituted or asserted against us. These include but are not limited to matters arising out of alleged defects in our products; product warranties; governmental regulations relating to safety, emissions, and fuel economy or other matters; government incentives; tax matters; alleged illegal acts resulting in fines or penalties; financial services; employment-related matters; dealer, supplier, and other contractual relationships; intellectual property rights; environmental matters; shareholder or investor matters; and financial reporting matters. Certain of the pending legal actions are, or purport to be, class actions. Some of the matters involve or may involve claims for compensatory, punitive, or antitrust or other treble damages in very large amounts, or demands for field service actions, environmental remediation programs, sanctions, loss of government incentives, assessments, or other relief, which, if granted, would require very large expenditures. The extent of our financial exposure to these matters is difficult to estimate. Many matters do not specify a dollar amount for damages, and many others specify only a jurisdictional minimum. To the extent an amount is asserted, our historical experience suggests that in most instances the amount asserted is not a reliable indicator of the ultimate outcome. We accrue for matters when losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable. In evaluating matters for accrual and disclosure purposes, we take into consideration factors such as our historical experience with matters of a similar nature, the specific facts and circumstances asserted, the likelihood that we will prevail, and the severity of any potential loss. We reevaluate and update our accruals as matters progress over time. NOTE 20. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued) For the majority of matters, which generally arise out of alleged defects in our products, we establish an accrual based on our extensive historical experience with similar matters. We do not believe there is a reasonably possible outcome materially in excess of our accrual for these matters. For the remaining matters, where our historical experience with similar matters is of more limited value (i.e., “non‑pattern matters”), we evaluate the matters primarily based on the individual facts and circumstances. For non‑pattern matters, we evaluate whether there is a reasonable possibility of a material loss in excess of any accrual that can be estimated. Our estimate of reasonably possible loss in excess of our accruals for all material matters currently reflects indirect tax and customs matters, for which we estimate the aggregate risk to be a range of up to a bout $2.8 billion . As noted, the litigation process is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual matters is not predictable with assurance. Our assessments are based on our knowledge and experience, but the ultimate outcome of any matter could require payment substantially in excess of the amount that we have accrued and/or disclosed. Warranty and Field Service Actions We accrue obligations for warranty costs and field service actions (i.e., safety recalls, emission recalls, and other product campaigns) at the time of sale. We establish estimates for warranty and field service action obligations using a patterned estimation model using historical information regarding the nature, frequency, and average cost of claims for each vehicle line by model year. We reevaluate the adequacy of our accruals on a regular basis and any revisions to our estimated obligation for warranties and field service actions are reported as Changes in accrual related to pre-existing warranties in the table below. Our estimates of warranty and field service action obligations are accounted for primarily in Other liabilities and deferred revenue for the periods ended June 30 were as follows (in millions): First Half 2015 2014 Beginning balance $ 4,785 $ 3,927 Payments made during the period (1,229 ) (1,310 ) Changes in accrual related to warranties issued during the period 1,005 1,121 Changes in accrual related to pre-existing warranties 212 763 Foreign currency translation and other (68 ) 17 Ending balance $ 4,705 $ 4,518 Excluded from the table above are costs accrued for customer satisfaction actions.

Reclassifications, Policy [Policy Text Block]	We reclassified certain prior year amounts in our consolidated financial statements to conform to current year presentation.
Finance Loans and Leases Receivable [Abstract]
Finance Loans and Leases Receivable, Policy [Policy Text Block]	For all finance receivables, we define “past due” as any payment, including principal and interest, that is at least 31 days past the contractual due date .
Financing Receivable Impaired [Abstract]
Impaired Financing Receivable, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Impaired consumer receivables include accounts that have been rewritten or modified in reorganization proceedings pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code that are considered to be troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), as well as all accounts greater than 120 days past due . Impaired non-consumer receivables represent accounts with dealers that have weak or poor financial metrics or dealer financing that has been modified in TDRs.
Inventories footnote [Abstract]
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]	All inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost for a substantial portion of U.S. inventories is determined on a last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) basis. LIFO was used for 33% and 28% of total inventories at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Cost of other inventories is determined by costing methods that approximate a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis.
Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	For interim tax reporting we estimate one single effective tax rate for tax jurisdictions not subject to a valuation allowance, which is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income/(loss). Tax effects of significant unusual or extraordinary items are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate calculation and recognized in the interim period in which they occur.
