With the news that GM filed bankruptcy yesterday, we also learned that 14 plants will be closed. Others will be put on standby, which means they could reopen to assist in production, in the event of an increase in business. Thankfully, the Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, KS, isn’t among the 14 additional facilities GM will close. The Prince Of Thrift was able to obtain the complete list of plant closings.
