Chevrolet Cruzes are shipping out of the General Motors Lordstown Assembly plant again.

Deliveries of the new 2017 Cruze were temporally suspended last week for two days after a supply chain issue affected the plant.

Normal three-shift production continued at the plant despite the supply chain issue, but a scheduled Saturday production day was canceled.

The Cruzes started to ship out again over the weekend, a spokesperson said.

“Production is still going on and we are monitoring it on a day-to-day basis,” added Glenn Johnson, president of the United Auto Workers Local 1112.

Neither union nor company officials have specified what the supply chain issue is.
