Auto supply woes: GM, Ford face production hits next week

Both General Motors Co. and Ford Motor Co. are working through supply issues causing them to halt production at some plants next week.

Production at GM's Lansing Grand River plant, where workers build the Cadillac CT4, Cadillac CT5 and Chevrolet Camaro, will be down the week of April 4 because of the shortage, which is not related to the global semiconductor shortfall, GM spokesman Dan Flores said. GM did not provide specifics on what supply is stopping production. The automaker anticipates production to restart at Lansing Grand River the week of April 11.

Meanwhile, Ford said Thursday that, due to the ongoing global semiconductor shortage, its Flat Rock Assembly Plant will be down next week. The rest of its North American plants will be running next week, according to the automaker.
