If at all.


Curious, where did you hear this? I work for a large company in the auto supply chain and many of the supplier facilities never shutdown because they are considered essential. Plus, there is a lot of product available, and suppliers and the autos are in regular contact. If there is demand and the autos want to meet it I would be surprised if getting parts would be an issue.

Yes but hopefully it will only be a year or two.

We are interested in a 2021 MDX, which is supposed to be our this fall. Do you think new car releases will be delayed?
