Fields to Replace Retiring CEO Mulally

Mark Fields as CEO to replace Alan Mulally who will retire.

Ford has named Mark Fields as successor to Alan Mulally, who will step down as chief executive officer before the end of the year, according to reports on Monday.

Fields was named the automaker's chief operating officer in December 2012.

Last September, rumors surfaced that Mulally had become the front-runner to replace Steve Ballmer as CEO of Microsoft. Mulally downplayed the reports, saying he is committed to Ford.

Mulally was hired in 2006 and has been credited with helping to bring Ford back from the brink of collapse at the height of the financial crisis.

GM: Thousands of Ignition Repair Kits Sent to Dealers

JP Morgan said Wednesday that it expects General Motors Co. sales to rise slightly in April, and says it doesn't think they have been impacted by the ongoing ignition switch recall crisis. Analyst Ryan Brinkman said in a research note it expects the Detroit automaker to report a 3 percent gain in sales in April over April 2013. “Our checks suggest little-to-no fallout from GM's high-profile ignition switch recall, with the automakers we spoke to not detecting any noticeable difference in GM's sales trend or marketing strategy and not expecting any benefit to their own sales as a result of the recall,” Brinkman wrote. “Automakers believed this was because the recall does not affect vehicles currently for sale.” Also Wednesday, GM said it has sent thousands of kits with ignition switches, ignition lock cylinders and keys to dealers to fix the 2.59 million vehicles GM has recalled, but wouldn't give specific figures or say how many vehicles have been repaired.

Ford Motor next year will launch 23 new vehicles worldwide, open three new factories in Asia and S.

Sixteen of the 23 new models will debut in North America, including the redesigned Ford Mustang, Edge and F-series pickups, as well as the all-new Ford Transit van and Lincoln MKC luxury crossover.
