Texas SUV plant added to UAW strike
October 24, 2023 // Some 5,000 workers at GM's plant in Arlington, Texas, joined the strike Tuesday. That halts production on several large SUVs: the Chevrolet Tahoe, Chevrolet Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade. It's the second straight day the union has expanded the strike. On Monday it added Stellantis' Ram 1500 pickup plant in Sterling Heights, Michigan, to the work stoppage. Context: It also comes the same day as GM released its third-quarter earnings report. The company reported a third-quarter profit of $3.1 billion but said the strike has already cost the company $800 million, including $600 million since the earnings period ended.
