Chrysler and UAW Reach Contract Deal Amid Rising Costs
Chrysler says the new wage and benefit increase will not raise labor costs beyond what was planned. Auto makers gained council approval to raise prices earlier this month to cover government mandated safety and environmental features. The council expects further increases to cover additional costs before considering more hikes. Dunlop notes criticism of steel price rises and states the action, with a summer price freeze, reduced potential steel profits this year.
