No they are not!
How can you tell where the parts are made looking at a sticker?
All cars made everywhere are built with parts for other suppliers. That is the very industry I have been in for 30 years now.
At one employer we made HVAC and window motors for Ford, GM, BMW, Jag, Volkswagen and Volvo. You want to know what was different between each car make? You can probably guess.
