LORDSTOWN — General Motors has canceled three upcoming days of overtime production at its Lordstown complex.
A notice on the United Auto Workers Local 1112 Web site said GM is reducing production based on expected demand for the Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s that are made there. Extra shifts on these Saturdays have been canceled: this saturday, Nov. 8 and Nov. 22. Saturday production remains scheduled for Nov. 1.
Just two weeks ago, GM announced that it was scheduling production every Saturday through Dec. 20, except for Nov. 15 and Nov. 29. Those off days were scheduled because of holidays.
