Up to 150,000 UAW members could walkout, potentially halting production at US car factories and costing manufacturers billions.
For the first time in US history coordinated industrial action is taking place against the three major car producers, the biggest form of strike action in a year of industrial unrest across the country.
The midnight deadline, by which the largest US automakers and the UAW were to negotiate a new collective bargaining agreement, passed without a deal. As a result of the ensuing strikes, production could halt at the three carmakers. Strikes are currently taking place at plants in Missouri, Ohio and Michigan with 12,700 staging walkouts.
