November 25, 2019—The impact of the UAW-GM strike is still being felt by auto shops around the country, reports KOAM News Now.
The strike cost General Motors nearly $2 billion in production and cost employees nearly $1 billion in wages. Now, backlogged parts are now costing consumers and auto repair and body shops time and money.
