Ford faces serious production problems after deciding to cut 3,000 jobs in Belgium.
Production of Transit vans was halted at the end of last week after parts supplies were disrupted.

Workers at Ford's Genk plant have been staging work disruptions including two 24-hour strikes since Ford's October 1 announcement that it would withdraw the next generation Focus from the plant along with 3,000 jobs.
