General Motors Corp. doubled its planned production slowdown to 20 plants as a strike dragged on at parts supplier American Axle & Manufacturing Holdings Inc.
Another Big Three automaker, Chrysler, said it might pare output next week.
GM’s notice brought the number of hourly and salaried employees that could be affected by factory shutdowns to about 30,000, or a third of the North American manufacturing force at the world’s largest automaker.
