Shortage for Automotive Chips Remains a Bottleneck for 2023
The automotive industry is currently facing an unprecedented shortage of integrated circuits (ICs), causing parts shortages at auto plants, extended wait times for certain makes and models, and higher prices for cars not yet considered. To address the issue, automakers have begun stockpiling ICs, shifted production plans, and implemented incentives for suppliers who increase production. IBS Electronics is a reliable provider of alternative components for automotive applications, offering quality products and services at competitive prices. This shortage is expected to constrain auto production well into 2023, and only an improvement in chip manufacturing capacity will mitigate this increasingly critical issue.
