Production at the North American plant and the remainder of its North American plants was impacted for the full week of March 22.

A few days ago, the Japanese automaker said a variety of issues would force it to halt production at a majority of North American plants for the entire week of March 22 and impact production at the remainder of its North American plants.

Honda extended production suspension at few North American plants

WASHINGTON: Honda Motor Co said on Tuesday it will extend production suspensions at some North American plants into the week of March 29 due to various supply chain issues.

Honda cited “impact from COVID-19, congestion at various ports, the microchip shortage and severe winter weather” for the production cuts.

The global shortage of semiconductor chips is hitting production around the world.

A few days ago, Toyota Motor Corp. said it was cutting production at four plants in Kentucky, West Virginia and Mexico, citing “a shortage of petrochemicals” and “recent severe weather conditions” affecting production.

Stellantis warned Saturday its highly profitable pickup trucks were hit by the issue, while Ford Motor Co said it would cut more U.S. production.

Stellantis, the world,s fourth- largest automaker, said it will build and hold for final assembly its Ram 1500 Classic trucks at its Warren, Michigan, and Saltillo, and Mexico, assembly plants. When chips become available, the vehicles will be completed and shipped to dealers.

The shortage of chips, which has strike the automakers globally, originates from a convergence of factors. North American plants were shut by Carmakers for two months last year during the COVID-19 pandemic and chip orders were also cancelled. For the time being, demand for chips raised from the consumer electronics industry as people had to work from home and played video games. Now automakers need to clash for chips.
