Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate market risk and interest rate fluctuations. As part of its risk management strategy, the Company uses derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign currency forward contracts, fixed-to-fixed currency swaps, total return swaps and interest rate swaps to hedge certain foreign currency, market value, and interest rate exposures. The Company’s objective is to reduce earnings volatility by offsetting gains and losses resulting from these exposures with losses and gains on the derivative contracts used to hedge them. The Company does not enter into or hold derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.
There were no amounts eligible to be offset under master netting agreements as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments was determined using a market-based approach (Level 2). The following table summarizes the Company’s derivative financial instruments recorded on its consolidated balance sheets (in millions).

Derivatives Designated for Hedge Accounting
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate the foreign currency risk related to revenues, production rebates, and production expenses. As production spend occurs or when rebate receivables are recognized, foreign forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges are de-designated. Upon de-designation, gains and losses on these derivatives directly impact earnings in the same line and same period as the hedged risk. These cash flow hedges are carried at fair market value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Hedge effectiveness is assessed using the spot method, with fair market value changes recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) until the hedged item affects earnings. Excluded components, including forward points, are included in current earnings.
The following table presents the pre-tax impact of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges on income and other comprehensive income (loss) (in millions).

If current fair values of designated cash flow hedges as of March 31, 2026 remained static over the next twelve months, the amount the Company would reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive loss into income in the next twelve months would not be material for the current fiscal year. The maximum length of time the Company is hedging exposure to the variability in future cash flows is 29 years.
Net Investment Hedges
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk associated with the net assets of non-USD functional entities and uses fixed-to-fixed cross currency swaps to mitigate this risk.
The following table presents the pre-tax impact of derivatives and other instruments designated as net investment hedges on other comprehensive income (loss) (in millions). Other than amounts excluded from effectiveness testing, there were no other material gains (losses) reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to income during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Derivatives Not Designated for Hedge Accounting
The Company has deferred compensation plans that have risk related to the fair value gains and losses on these investments and uses total return swaps to mitigate this risk. The gains and losses associated with these swaps are recorded to selling, general and administrative expenses, offsetting the deferred compensation investment gains and losses.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into $2,000 million notional amount of credit contract swaptions to mitigate the interest rate risk related to future issuances of debt related to the previously proposed Separation Transaction, which were unwound during the three months ended March 31, 2026 for an immaterial loss.
The Company is also exposed to the risk of secured overnight financing rate changes in connection with securitization fees on the receivables securitization program. To mitigate this risk, the Company entered into $1,500 million notional of non-designated interest rate swaps in the first quarter of 2025. The gains and losses on these derivatives are recorded to selling, general and administrative expenses, offsetting securitization interest expense.
