Grant, the station manager for AIT Detroit, joins hosts Sebastian Blanco and Grace Sharkey on this episode of Transmission to talk about global challenges in the automotive industry, including how the chip shortage could affect the changeover from the 2021 to 2022 model years.

He points out that the chip shortage is not unique to the auto industry but extends to electronics and what that means for cyclical trends of production and consumption.
