GM, the largest U.S. automaker, said it will extend by two weeks a halt to Chevrolet Blazer sport utility vehicle production at its Ramos plant in Mexico because of the ongoing chips shortage as it resumes production at other North American plants

GM said production will resume Monday at its Lansing Grand River Assembly plant that builds the Chevrolet Camaro and the Cadillac CT4 and CT5

Cadillac production has been halted at the Michigan plant since May

Production of the Blazer at the Ramos plant, which has been halted since Aug. 23, will now not resume before Oct. 15

Ford said next week it will halt production at its Flat Rock Assembly Plant where it builds the Mustang

Ford will halt production of the Transit next week at its Kansas City Assembly Plant but it will continue to build F-150 trucks

Ford's Kentucky Truck Plant next week will operate on one shift rather than the three normal shifts
