FOR THE RECORD - March 11, 2009

General Motors: An article in Business on Friday about the possibility of bankruptcy for General Motors Corp. said the last U.S. automaker to go out of business was Kaiser Motors in 1955. At least two other U.S. companies stopped making autos after that year: Studebaker Corp. produced its last vehicle in 1966, and Checker Motor Corp. built its last taxi in 1982.
