The United Auto Workers union says it will announce on Friday how it plans to expand its strike against Detroit's three automakers.

At first it targeted one assembly plant from each company, and last week it added 38 parts distribution centres run by GM and Stellantis. Ford was spared the second escalation because talks with the union were progressing.

Fain said Tuesday that negotiations were moving slowly and the union would add facilities to the strike to turn up the pressure on the automakers. Marick Masters, a business professor at Wayne State University in Detroit, said Wednesday that the union is likely to go after the pickup and SUV factories as it tries to squeeze the companies into making better offers. It also could shut down selected component factories such as transmissions that would eventually force the companies to halt assembly plants.

In past years the union has picked one company as a potential strike target and reached a contract agreement with that company that would serve as a pattern for the others.
