Ford had to hit the brakes on making some of its electric cars because it can’t get enough rare-earth magnets—think of them as the secret sauce for EV motors and even your smartphone. China controls almost all of these minerals, so when they tighten exports, carmakers like Ford scramble to keep the assembly lines moving. If you’re waiting for a new EV, expect delays. Oh, and if you bought a Ford Super Duty truck this spring, check for a recall—there’s a brake issue you can’t ignore! #Ford #EVs #SupplyChain #Business
