Shreveport&#8217;s KSLA TV is reporting that a batch of contaminated microchips from China will halt production at the plant the week of April 19. Not only that, the chip issue is also expected to impair <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/canyon\">GMC Canyon<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/colorado\">Chevy Colorado<\/a> production in Europe and at the Ramos Arizpal plant in Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>A supplier in North Carolina provides brake control modules for the trucks, and that supplier gets chips for the modules from a supplier in China. It was the North Carolina company that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.motobullet.com\/news.php?id=10208\">informed GM of the contaminated parts<\/a>. Even when Hummer had a chance of continuing, Shreveport was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ksla.com\/Global\/story.asp?S=10587522\">headed for closure<\/a> and &#8220;bad asset&#8221; status, but this news doesn&#8217;t help.<\/p>\n<p>[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ksla.com\/Global\/story.asp?S=12319616\">KSLA TV<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/18\/report-bad-chinese-parts-force-gm-to-idle-chevy-colorado-gmc-ca\/\">Report: Bad Chinese parts force GM to idle Chevy Colorado\/GMC Canyon plant<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Sun, 18 Apr 2010 15:03:00 EST.
