    Is there any other source that backs up this headline, because the article it’s attached to clearly doesn’t.

    Temporary line shutdowns like this are fairly common in the automotive industry, just ask anyone from Detroit. An adjustment to meet demand does not mean the line is canceled and everything is doom.

        Which is ambiguous.

        For example, when Detroit or other American plants are retooling for another model, the shutdown is typically longer and it’s announced ahead of time what they’re shifting production to.

        This article contains a lot of personal opinions on the vehicle (which I agree is overpriced for the market), but the only fact in the article is that the plant will shut down for four days. The headline could be correct, but it’s not backed up by the information in the article.
