News Update

Nissan has announced that the plant in Smyrna and plants elsewhere, will be closed for certain days due to part supply issues.
Nissan will stop production at factories in Tennessee, Mississippi and Mexico over the next two weeks because of uncertain availability of parts from Japan, the company said today.

Assembly plants in Smyrna, Tenn., and Canton, Miss., and an engine plant in Decherd, Tenn., will be idle on April 8-11 and then April 18-21.
Nissan did say that these days were scheduled later in the year and moved forward.
Nissan said in a statement that it was moving forward previously planned non-production days from the second and third quarter of this year.
Nothing is said about the pay for employees during these shutdown days.
