On October 10, 2023, the United Auto Workers (UAW) strike against the Detroit Three automakers entered its fourth week. However, there were some positive developments in the negotiations that day.
- GM and Unifor reach tentative agreement in Canada, ending strike. GM and Unifor, the Canadian autoworkers union, reached a tentative agreement on October 7, ending a 10-day strike at three GM plants in Canada. The deal was ratified by Unifor members on October 10.
- UAW President Shawn Fain says GM has made "major breakthrough" in US negotiations. Fain said that GM has agreed to allow workers at joint-venture battery plants to be covered by union contracts. This was a key demand for the UAW, as it would ensure that union workers would be able to build the electric vehicles that are becoming increasingly important to GM's future.
- UAW decides not to expand strike to Arlington Assembly Plant. Fain said that the UAW decided not to expand the strike to its largest plant in the United States, the Arlington Assembly Plant in Texas, because of the progress that had been made in negotiations with GM. The Arlington plant produces the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks, which are among GM's most popular and profitable vehicles.
