Import Controls. DaimlerChrysler Corp makes and markets motor vehicles. Daim-lerChrysler assembled the 1993 and 1994 model years of its trucks at plants in Mexico. Assem-bly involved sheet metal components sent from the United States. DaimlerChrysler

subjected some of the parts to a complicated treatment process, which included the application of coats of paint to prevent corrosion, to impart color, and to protect the finish. Under federal law, goods that are assembled abroad using U.S.-made parts can be imported tariff free. A federal statute provides that painting is "incidental" to assembly and does not affect the status of the goods. A federal regulation states that "painting primarily intended to enhance the appearance of an arti-cle or to impart distinctive features or characteristics" is not incidental. The U.S. Customs Ser-vice levied a tariff on the trucks. DaimlerChrysler filed a suit in the U.S. Court of International Trade, challenging the levy. Should the court rule in DaimlerChrysler's favor? Why or why not?
