[quote=Anonymous]Chips are mostly made in Asia. Asia had very strict lockdowns during COVID, so that disrupted production. Demand is waaaaaaay up for chips, since you need them for everything from engines, to in-dash screen infotainment, to your power adjustable seats. Lots of chips in a single car. Automakers are competing TV, cell phone, industrial users, etc for chips. The US is building new chip factories here to prevent this from happening again. But it will take a few years.[/quote]
