According to the National Safety Council, there are more than 27,000 car accidents each and every day in the United States. Nobody is seriously injured in the majority of these crashes, but the vehicles definitely sustain damage, and not all of that damage is reported to insurance agencies or repaired. In most cases accident damage is "typically reported by an insurance agency or body shop," while other times "visible paintwork or damage was highlighted by an inspector, but un-flagged by a vehicle history report." Here is the list of the vehicles most likely to be involved ...
We’ve been a bit worried about the car market after Ford Motor announced that it plans to cut 10 percent of its salaried workers. General Motors didn’t show better results, it reported a 4.7 percent sales drop on April, just like Fiat Chrysler who might get sued for using illegal software which violate the U.S. clean-air rules. We’ve been trying to understand the reasons for the slump, and here’s what we got: Demand has peaked. Last year, there was a record vehicle sales volume of 17.55 million. But the National Automobile Dealers Association forecasts ...
When news leaked out Tuesday that Ford Motor would cut 10 percent of its salaried workers, it underscored how the auto industry's strong sales are slipping after years of consecutive growth since the Great Recession.

At the end of April, GM had enough vehicles ...
After 7 years of car sales growth new auto sales have declined 4.7 percent, following a 1.6 percent decline in March. Car manufacturers spent average of $3,814 per car sold in the first part of April but despite that the drop occurred. For total industry sales to reach a peak and start declining isn't a surprise to anyone, and it could be great for car buyers moving forward. Even carmakers don't seem to be terribly concerned with the decline in the number of total vehicles sold, as they're making more on each car they sell right now because their product mix is more heav...
Ford Motor Co. is doing its best to fight the downturn in the car market but it’s not that easy, and it seems like it’s not that easy, and the fight is almost lost. The major American automaker is preparing for major reductions to its worldwide workforce amid CEO Mark Fields’ renewed efforts to hike profits and address the company’s falling share price. Ford plans to shrink its salaried workforce in North America and Asia by about 10 percent, and will offer generous early retirement incentives to reduce its salaried ranks by Oct. 1, but the company does not p...
