Bill Ford to Ghosn: Let's talk alliance

DEARBORN -- As Ford Motor Co. struggles to hold on to its position as America's No. 2 automaker, Chairman and CEO Bill Ford Jr. is signaling a new willingness to discuss an alliance with another car company.

Bill Ford recently called Carlos Ghosn, the celebrated CEO of Nissan Motor Corp. and Renault SA, to say he is interested in talking if Ghosn's proposed tie-up with General Motors Corp. fails to materialize, people familiar with the situation said Wednesday.
