New cars can require up to 1400 computer chips to manage various systems, ranging from electric windows to infotainment screens and active driver safety systems.

The shortage of chips stems from the massive drop in car sales and huge increase in demand for computers and other electrical devices in 2020, which diverted production of them away from the automotive sector.

Has anybody been affected by this?
 
shh.you'll get all the southern poofdahs panic buying chips now. the chippys are already running on taters.
 
I don't care....

I got my new Van in January and this will all have blown over by the time it's due for changing. :D
