- dylan604 7y agoThis seems to be similar to any of the digital media companies that used DRM on all of their content that suddenly could not be played when they shut down the service.
- twblalock 7y agoThis sort of happened to Saab, but since they were basically badge-engineered GM cars at that time it is still easy to get parts.
- selectodude 7y agoWhen Daewoo left the US market 20 years ago they pretty much just upped and left.
- wasdfff 7y agoDelorean folded but iirc maintained their oem market
- Marsymars 7y agoThere are many auto manufacturers that have left various markets or folded at various points in time. Most major recent one I can think of off the top of my head that isn't mentioned in another comment is Suzuki leaving the North American market in 2012 (USA) / 2014 (Canada).
