Five minutes on what actually moved in automotive retail, dealer marketing, and the rules that touch a store. Monday to Saturday, first thing, hosted by Naomi Hale of AUTONOMi.
Two hundred twenty million dollars is the number General Motors is paying to settle claims over driving data sold to insurance companies, CBT News reports. By the same afternoon Ford was telling The Drive it handles customer data differently. The inventory numbers haven't moved either. F&I and Showroom finds three quarters of the lot still carrying this model year, against just over half last November, with Broncos and Wranglers from twenty twenty-five still sitting unsold. Collision Repair Magazine's quarterly roundup has LKQ in a loss, Axalta's refinish sales down, and Magna's earnings up on lower volume. A privacy bill lands on one desk this morning. Aged steel sits on another. Links to everything referenced in this episode: goautonomi.com/naomi

Four Recalls, One Crowded Wire
Four recalls land on one morning's wire, from a Ford transmission fix topping a million trucks to a Toyota engine program some owners still don't trust. Jaguar Land Rover's power-loss recall keeps running, and GM pulls six new Traverse and Acadia SUVs over a seat weld. Motor1 and Insideradio both carry Audi this morning, one on weak sales, one on a possible tariff break under review by the Trump administration. Arch Insurance's purchase of Premier Dealer Services pushes further into F&I, Evans Halshaw adds two franchises in Sunderland, and BYD's overseas shipments more than double. Ford answers GM's data settlement with a transparency pledge, and China eases an export rule tied to the Nexperia chip crunch. Links to everything referenced in this episode: goautonomi.com/naomi

Last Saturday, No Days Left
There are no selling days left once today ends, and the wire hasn't slowed down for it. CBT News carries a weekly roundup with a steady Fed, a denied court bid from Volkswagen and Scout, and a cybersecurity investigation into VinSolutions. Auto Remarketing tracks a fresh Iowa buy-sell, an eBay Motors tie-up with NIADA, and credit costs still pressing on financing. Automotive Dive has GM confirming hybrid production in Michigan and the administration choosing trade talks over new tariffs. Motor Trader, Automotive News and Gasgoo round out a dense Saturday of earnings, recalls and leadership moves that doesn't pause for the biggest day of the month.
