United Auto Workers union President Shawn Fain is expected to launch walkouts at more Detroit Three auto factories Friday, barring last-minute progress in bargaining that has moved slowly since last week.
currently under way until a new contract is ratified, a source familiar with the situation said, speaking on condition of anonymity., or about 12% of the 146,000 union members working at the automakers. Strikers have been getting $500 a week from the UAW's strike fund.
Analysts estimate GM, Ford and Stellantis earn as much as $15,000 per vehicle on each of their respective large pickup truck models. After the last expansion of the coordinated strike, Fain threatened more action at Stellantis' critical parts plants in his hometown of Kokomo, Indiana, where the automaker has four factories that make engines and transmissions used widely across the company's product line.
The UAW has taken a new approach with walkouts to turn up pressure on the automakers. Rather than the hammer blow of a mass walkout, the UAW has used strikes like a ratchet, keeping company executives guessing where the next turn would come.
