President Trump Triggers Defense Production Act, Requiring GM to Make Ventilators

Democrats and resistance media writ large have been demanding that President Trump invoke the Defense Production Act to force companies to make equipment for the fight against the coronavirus. Until today, most companies voluntarily adjusted their manufacturing systems and networks to assist; so forced compliance was not needed.
However, General Motors now states an inability to meet their prior commitments for the manufacture of ventilators:
Now it really gets interesting… The CEO of GM is Mary Barra, considered a hero amid the political circles of democrats; and considered a potential pick for vice-president on a Democrat ticket. Despite her generally weak leadership, democrats adore her resistance bona-fides.
The axiom: “be careful what you wish for” applies big time, because President Trump has just triggered the Defense Production Act to force General Motors to comply with their initial promise. By playing games, again; CEO Mary Barra put herself in the crosshairs of the Trump administration.

If Ford makes them, they should make a commercial that reminds the American people that "You the tax payer bailed GM out (they didn't repay all of the $) and now when America needs GM they are no where to be found.

It’s already on Reddit’s front page that he’s canceling production of ventilators because of price haggling.

They might as well. It’s been decades since GM made anything you could call a car.

I am curious why GM and why not Ford, considering ford announced yesterday that they will be returning to work in early April
