Autonation NO-SHOW at the Bargaining Table
By R. Robertson
Workers and their families asked, "Autonation, Where Are You?" when the giant car dealer backed out of scheduled negotiations at the last minute. Talks were to be held at the Mountain View, CA dealership today, but Autonation tried to move the meeting to an East Bay location, far from an exuberant rally. Community members joined the picket line in support of striking members of IAM Local 1101.
Autonation, has 321 new vehicle franchises in 15 states, one of which is Allison BMW/Mini in Mountain View.
