No. This issue is across the board, and international. Just as the pandemic is. It’s hitting lumber, appliances, computers and nearly every industry. Some are more demand than supplies, others are individual and small suppliers being hit by shutdowns and quarantine. If the relatively small supplier that makes dishwasher pumps for GE dishwashers has an outbreak and shuts down for two weeks, that ripples through the GE dishwasher manufacturing and supply chain.
Same with car parts. Metal suppliers, foundries, machinists, platers, retailers.... each one of those has their own needs and supply chains! Platers need their chemicals, etc.
