A Brief History Of Ford Motor Company
In 1925, Ford acquired Lincoln Motor Company and entered the luxury car market. In 1941, Ford began producing vehicles for the military. Ford would halt production on civilian vehicles and focus only on military vehicles for over 3 years. Henry Ford died in 1947. He left the company to his oldest grandson, Henry Ford II. In 1956, shares of stock in Ford went up for sale. Millions of shares were sold on the first day. Many popular models of cars were built during the 1950's and 1960's. The Thunderbird and Mustang were two of the most popular. Ford would later acquire Aston Martin, Jaguar, and half of Mazda, Volvo, and Land Rover. In 2001, Ford was forced to recall over 300,000 vehicles to replace faulty tires. This was a huge cost to Ford. Ford was also accused of knowing about the faulty tires and did nothing to fix the problem. Several deaths were link to the bad tires. This caused stock prices to dive and employee morale was very low. Shortly after, Ford launched a major restructuring in hopes of improving employee morale and increasing profits. With the creation of many new car models, profits began to rise, in the sluggish economy; time will tell if the success will be long-term.
