WINDSOR, Ontario (AP) — A strike by 175 workers at a supplier has shut down Chrysler LLC's minivan plant in Windsor, Ontario.
The plant was forced to close Thursday evening because of a lack of parts. Canadian Auto Workers members at TRW Automotive walked off the job earlier in the afternoon after negotiations failed to produce a contract.
The CAW says wages are the big issues, with workers making a little over $11 an hour.
The TRW plant makes brake and suspension systems, mostly for the Chrysler facility.
Negotiations are continuing between the company and the CAW.
