Impossible to break it down into US content only. Every single window sticker on every new car or truck has them combined together.
Listings of Passenger Motor Vehicles That Are Labeled With Their U.S./Canadian Parts Content
NHTSA has provided these reports as an aid to consumers considering the purchase of a new vehicle. The charts list information that NHTSA received from vehicle manufacturers about the U.S./Canadian content (by value) of the equipment (parts) used to assemble passenger motor vehicles.
The American Automobile Labeling Act (AALA) defines a passenger motor vehicle as a motor vehicle designed to carry not more than 12 persons with a gross vehicle weight rating not greater than 8,500 pounds and includes multipurpose passenger vehicles and light duty trucks. It does not include a motorcycle or a truck not designed primarily to carry its operator or passengers, i.e., a delivery truck. A label with the U.S./Canada content percentage and related additional information must be displayed on these vehicles up to the time of first retail sale.

OP
Are any of the big 3s cars actually entirely made in the USA? I would be surprised if

There was a Stellantis dealer who said the average monthly payment on a new car will be $175.00

Given that the average price of a new car is $48,641 I would say that model is not.

49k gets you the most base CT5, which is a pretty lackluster car for the money according to reviews

If the prices of new parts goes way up, their LRG will only refund in store credits what you paid for them previously

US auto workers are just going to have to work for Chinese wages if they want to compete, right?

Your opinion might be different if it was your job being outsourced to China, Mexico, India or Vietnam.

If you consider cars made in China for sale in the Middle East as domestic, sure
