Moody's on Dec. 19 affirmed Ford Motor Credit Co. LLC's Baa3 senior unsecured and P-3 ratings.

The outlook on the ratings is "negative."

The rating agency has also withdrawn the outlooks on Ford Motor Credit and its subsidiaries' existing instrument ratings for business reasons.

The affirmation reflects the continued strong support received by the company from its parent, Ford Motor Co., as well as the company's Ba2 stand-alone credit profile.
