And cars too. Honda, Toyota and Nissan have said they are on the verge of shutting down plants in the US due to the shortage of parts from Japan - and it also affects automakers worldwide. I also know Toyota is also telling dealers to conserve parts, fluids and supplies used in warranty repairs as well since some of the additives and parts come from that part of Japan as well.
