GM doesn't own Mazda shares, Ford does; and they're only selling a portion of their interest. I believe under Japanese corporate law, Ford will still maintain a controlling interest, but I'm not 100% about that.

Daewoo makes the Chevy Cobalt also. It doesn't seem to be a very reliable car.

Suzuki used to provide the Sprint for the Chevy Metro and the Grand Vitara for the Chevy Tracker.

Mazda is at least partly owned by Ford.

That's news to me. Daewoo made the old Pontiac Le Mans, they made the Suzuki Reno, Forenza and Verona and they still make the Chevrolet Aveo.
