[Disir]

The U.S.-Mexico automotive production industry has been affected by a global semiconductor supply chain disruption that has slowed assembly lines around the world.

General Motors and Volkswagen recently announced they were extending shutdowns or adjusting production schedules at plants in Mexico due to semiconductor chip shortages.

Volkswagen de México said Thursday it will adjust its production schedule at its plant in Puebla, Mexico, for the Jetta model until March 5 due to lack of components.

“The production volume of this model will recover in subsequent weeks. The personnel in this production segment who have vacations available will take them,” Volkswagen said in a statement.

I wouldnt buy a Chevy if someone paid me to do it, not after what they did under the brown turd Obammy's admin. You file for bankruptcy then dont honor your warranties and dont give a nickel per share of worthless stock, then take 35 billion dollars, keep the fucking unions that busted you in the first place and keep making mediocre cars. What is to keep you from declaring bankruptcy again, do it all over but this time beg for 50 billion dollars? Rinse and repeat?
