Ford could halt production of the F-150, its bestselling and most profitable vehicle, following a fire at a supplier's plant in Michigan last week.

The shutdowns could last for several weeks, according to a person familiar with the situation, although plans are in flux as Ford seeks an alternative supply of the missing parts. Even one missing part from a supply chain is enough to halt production of a vehicle.

Never really a good idea to have only one supplier.

No big loss there. Only Ford's best selling vehicle.

I think Ford has learned from the crawfish farmers. This is just a ploy to raise prices even higher.

Maybe they are one of the only suppliers of this product because Mercedes is having to shut production lines down in Alabama because of it.
