NEW YORK AP The prospect of a strike by UAW grew stronger as General Motors Ford and Chrysler offered what the union called inadequate and inequitable proposals.

Ford was chosen for pattern bargaining. Total offers total more than 1 billion in wage and fringe benefits over three years with specific yearly increases.
