  "account": "BMW is experiencing production issues due to a shortage of parts. The company confirmed that some of its plants have had to halt production temporarily, with those in Regensburg, Leipzig, and Oxford affected. BMW said it is working closely with its suppliers to resolve the issue and stabilize production, but did not provide details on the specific parts in short supply or the extent of the production loss. The Regensburg plant produced nearly 357,000 cars last year, while Leipzig produced around 260,000 and Oxford around 124,000.",
  "summary": "A total of three plants are said to be affected, according to sources. This only applies to individual shifts - but each of them is likely to affect hundreds of cars.",
