It's been not so long since Ford announced the launch on the markets of its new Lincoln Continental, and now the automaker announced that the new vehicles are being recalled. The HID headlights may have been assembled with LED lens that don't have the correct lens optics to meet federal visibility requirements for turn signals. Ford says it is unaware of any accidents related to the issue. The company will replace the headlamp assemblies, if needed. The safety compliance recall covers 1,876 Continentals built from June 14 to Sept. 23 at Ford's Flat Rock factory sou...
Global car sales have gained momentum this year, rising a stronger-than-expected 5% through July. While gains are expected to moderate through year-end, strengthening labour markets and improving financial conditions suggest that the upswing will continue in 2017. There are still nearly 50 million vehicles on the road in the United States that were built prior to the new millennium, and as a result U.S. purchases are expected to continue to move higher for the remainder of the year and in 2017.

Of course when we're talking about U.S. car sales we can say that even though they get higher, they have reached a peak, but speaking about the overall auto sales in the whole world we need to accentuate that it goes better than ever now.

Excluding car sales, retail spending dropped 0.3%. The US car market looks like is betting it will never get to the end of it. There are always reasons for “data-dependent” to hold off. That is the reason why stocks are trading at-all time highs, even while the economy limps along like ...
It's not a secret that the auto sales cycle may be turning stormy. Still, that doesn’t mean it is time to batten down the hatches. For those with a little faith in the future, Nissan Motor looks like a bargain. The U.S. auto sales appear to have downshifted for now. This spells tough times for Japan’s auto makers, which count the U.S. among their biggest markets. Toyota Motor Corporation is also feeling more profit-sapping pain from the strong yen. This is due to the fact that a large portion of the vehicles it sells in the U.S. are imports from Japan. Honda and Niss...
