GM auto sales decline in September -October 04, 2005

General Motors Corp. said Tuesday its U.S. car and truck sales dropped 24 percent in September.

The sales results were down after the "Employee Pricing for Everyone" incentive gave strong results in June and July.

GM also said last year's September results were propped up by a "72-Hour Sale," which offered zero percent financing for 72 months, resulting in a number of industry sales records.

GM (NYSE: GM) said U.S. sales reached 349,202 cars and trucks in September compared with 458,700 in September 2004.

GM has about 4,000 employees at its Moraine Assembly plant, which produces mid-size sports utility vehicles.
