Used-Car Steady, Brampton Plant Goes Permanent

Auto Remarketing's read on used-car pricing carried across three separate wire filings this morning, and VantageScore finds consumer credit resiliency showing up again in August. Automotive News tracks buy-sell activity moving through Lamborghini, McLaren and Infiniti stores, while Car and Driver writes that Honda is eyeing a second Ohio plant. The World Socialist Web Site has it that Stellantis has permanently closed its Brampton plant, with Unifor keeping remaining workers on the job. Motor Trader covers Bentley's showroom redesign and Mazda's new service-plan partnership, and a run of recalls, from Jeep's tire pressure lights to Land Rover's Defender, keeps service departments busy. None of it changes what's owed Monday, but it shapes what gets priced, staffed and fixed.
