It may have been in the mid-1990s, when the last major labor contract
was negotiated, or the previous time. In comparison, when a supplier
to Ford, maybe Lear-Sigler or Johnson Controls, had a strike, Ford
refused to accept supplies from them until the strike was settled. And
when Ross Perot was on the board of GM, he visited the UAW, which they
really appreciated because no GM higher-ups had ever done that before.
