“What’s most interesting in the September auto sales numbers is the focus of the crisis in the automotive sector has changed,” said Aaron Bragman, an auto analyst with the consulting company Global Insight.

“It’s no longer about the switch from big vehicles to small cars; it’s the fact that you can’t even get a car if you want one,” he said. “This is one of the most visible facets of the paralysis in the credit markets. When sales of the Toyota Camry are down over 20 percent, you know there’s a serious problem.”
