CDK Global, a retail software provider, is facing a system outage that has affected nearly 15,000 car dealerships in North America. The company predicts it will take several days to restore its software, following cyber incidents. Car manufacturers and dealerships are implementing temporary solutions, with Ford setting up alternative software systems. The outage may impact dealership operations and cause delays in the summer season shopping. Dealerships are manually processing sales and facing challenges with vehicle registration without CDK's software. Some companies like Penske Automotive and Sonic Automotive are implementing response plans to minimize disruptions.
