The AP article is terrible. It's basically CDK's press release.

There's more useful stuff on Reddit.[1][2][3]

- Some dealerships can still sell cars. Some can't.

- Parts and service are in worse shape than new vehicle sales because their inventory info is in the CDK system.

- The process by which new cars and parts are ordered and delivered to dealers is down.

- Many dealerships can sell what's on the lot and do repairs with parts in inventory, but the supply chain has stopped.
