Cars pass under an overpass at the General Motors Car assembly plant in Oshawa, June 1, 2012. GM has lost 34,176 vehicles of production since the start of the UAW strike in September, according to an estimate by Deutsche Bank. At the Oshawa plant, workers build light- and heavy-duty Chevrolet Silverado trucks, one of GM's most profitable models, while the plant's stamping operations supply various parts for GM North America. Unifor has used the "pattern bargaining" approach in its talks, reaching a deal first with Ford and then expecting GM and Stellantis to match. Unifor represents about 18,000 workers at the Canadian facilities of Ford, GM and Chrysler parent Stellantis (STLAM.MI).

Fain also wants workers at the plants to make top UAW assembly plant wages, which now are $32 per hour. Political Cartoons View All 1205 Images“The battery plants are going to be the make-or-break issue,” said Sam Abuelsamid, a mobility analyst for Guidehouse Insights. And if lower-paying battery plants aren't union, workers won't have anywhere to get the same wages and benefits. But they also see a future where buyers could switch, and they think wages at the battery plants should match what they make. The UAW, he said, will use this to try to organize other Korean-owned battery plants.

CEO of used-car retailer CarMax , Bill Nash, told CNBC's Jim Cramer it's "a little early" to tell what effect the United Autoworkers Union strike will have on his company's business. "I think as far as the UAW strike [is concerned], it's a little early to tell the impact it's going to have on the business — you know, it really depends on how long it goes, and if there's going to be an expansion," Nash said. The UAW began its strike on three Detroit automakers — Ford Motor , Stellantis and General Motors — last month. CarMax will continue to monitor the strike, Nash said, but added so far it hasn't played into the overall industry. Nash also discussed how inflation and high interest rates are affecting customers looking to buy both newer and older models.

Canadian autoworkers go on strike at GM plants

But the plants that are on strike could affect GM’s US operations, because its engines and transmissions are used in vehicles built here. GM already is dealing with a strike by the United Auto Workers union at two of its US assembly plants and a strike of 18 parts distribution centers across 20 states. The UAW is also on strike against plants at GM rivals Ford and Stellantis, which builds cars under the Jeep, Ram, Dodge and Chrysler names. GM had already disclosed that it lost $200 million in the first two weeks of the UAW strike, which began on September 15. The UAW remained on strike at the GM plants where its members had already walked out.

The used car market took off during the COVID-19 pandemic. As of last month, used pricing had declined nearly 4% year-over-year, according to Cox Automotive's latest Manheim Used Vehicle Index, with one exception: Trucks. Overall, despite slight improvements in the used car market from 2020 and 2021, supply remains tight for used cars today, according to Cox, and is tighter than this same point both last year and pre-COVID. Used car dynamicsThe pandemic broke the used car market, and there is no "normal" for this market to return to. The ongoing UAW strike could also eventually threaten used car prices.

The percentage of Black workers in the auto industry today is more than double their share of the workforce overall. But the decline in US auto jobs and the erosion of unions have hit Black workers hardest. Black workers are likelier to belong to unions, in any industry, compared to White and Hispanic workers. Black union workers earn on average 16.4% higher wages than non-union Black workers, and they are likelier to have health care and retirement benefits, studies show. Hard-won gains disappearSoon after Black auto workers broke into better paying jobs, the US auto industry began its long decline, decimating Black communities in particular.

A video address by Fain is scheduled for 2 p.m. EDT (1800 GMT) and will cover substantive bargaining updates, people familiar with the UAW's plans said. In the UAW version, the winner offers richer contract terms, and gets a week without a new strike. Fain's Friday video addresses have become must-see events since he launched coordinated strikes at GM, Ford and Stellantis plants shortly after midnight on Sept. 15. So far, the union has ordered walkouts at five assembly plants and 38 parts depots operated by GM and Stellantis. Last Friday, Fain called off a strike planned at one of Stellantis' assembly plants after the automaker delivered new proposals minutes before the scheduled start of his talk.

GM, Ford, and some suppliers are resorting to layoffs. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe ripple effects of the UAW's unprecedented strike at Ford, GM, and Stellantis are getting wider as the work stoppages stretch through a third week. The UAW responded on X, formerly known as Twitter, saying that the CEO had not attended bargaining that week. The impact of lost production is also affecting suppliers now, with the vehicle-suppliers association MEMA reporting about a third of suppliers have issued layoffs due to the UAW strike. Fain is scheduled to address UAW members in a livestream Friday afternoon, a platform he's previously used to expand the strike when he's unhappy with the pace of negotiations.

As the United Auto Workers strike against the Detroit Big 3 persists, CNBC's Jim Cramer said Thursday he believes Ford (F) may eventually consider shifting additional production to Mexico. "There is some movement between Ford and the UAW," Cramer said on "Squawk on the Street." However, Cramer said, "I have a feeling that, if they don't come to the table soon, Mexico will be in play." Cramer suggested that could occur within "a couple of weeks," while noting Ford already has assembly plants south of the border.

The UAW strike's ripple effects is decreasing the demand for steel, the Journal reported. The strike has cut production of 6,030 vehicles a day that used 5,982 tons of steel, S&P estimates. AdvertisementAdvertisementThe UAW strike is hitting more than just car production and distribution. AdvertisementAdvertisementAccording to the American Iron and Steel Institute, steel currently makes up about 54% of the material that goes into making the average vehicle. But with workers on strike are 43 facilities across the country, that's bound to slow demand for steel.

Doctors are also not participating in the strike, and Kaiser said it was bringing in thousands of temporary workers. After five months on the picket lines, the writers strike was declared over after their union approved a contract agreement with studios last week. During the staggered strikes, workers have also called for solidarity and a boycott of hotels in the Los Angeles area.

Since the UAW union's targeted strikes began Sept. 15, shares of the Detroit automaker have fallen by about 10%. The stock closed Thursday at $30.31 a share, down by 2.4%. The potential recall of roughly 52 million air-bag inflators from Tennessee-based auto supplier ARC Automotive had been reported about previously, but the number of affected GM vehicles had not. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration held a public meeting Thursday on its determination that the air-bag parts are defective and should be recalled, according to the report. Automakers, including GM, have until later this year to file responses on the matter.

UAW President Shawn Fain plans to update the union's 150,000 members at Ford, General Motors (GM.N) and Chrysler parent Stellantis (STLAM.MI) on Friday, a person briefed on the union's plans said. In addition to Ford, talks with Chrysler parent Stellantis (STLAM.MI) and other automakers and the UAW have been active in recent days, sources said. Ford Chief Financial Officer John Lawler said Friday the automaker's retirement offer would assure UAW workers could retire with $1 million in savings. The targeted strike against the Detroit Three automakers began on Sept. 15 and is now in its 20th day. Rival Ford Motor (F.N) secured a $4 billion line of credit in August, ahead of the Sept. 14 UAW contract expiration.

DETROIT – General Motors secured a new $6 billion line of credit as the automaker braces for additional strikes by the United Auto Workers union. The targeted strikes already cost the automaker $200 million during the third quarter, GM said Wednesday. A GM spokesman said the $200 million strike cost is due to lost production on wholesale volume, largely due to the UAW's initial Sept. 15 strike at GM's midsize truck and full-size van plant in Wentzville, Missouri. The strike has since expanded to GM's parts and distribution facilities nationwide and, as of last Friday, a crossover plant in mid-Michigan. As a result of the strike in Missouri, GM also idled its Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas, where it builds the Cadillac XT4 SUV and the Chevrolet Malibu sedan, and laid off nearly 2,000 workers.

New York CNN —The United Auto Workers union strike has cost General Motors $200 million since the work stoppage began two weeks ago, the company said Wednesday. GM was relatively flush with cash heading into the strike, which started on September 15. During the second week, the UAW also went on strike at a series of 18 parts and distribution centers operated by GM as well as 20 at Stellantis. This week, GM arranged for a new $6 billion line of credit. GM lost $2.9 billion from a six-week strike the UAW waged against it in 2019.
