Missing parts from Tesla:

The specific components that are missing remain undisclosed, but it's worth noting that Tesla relies heavily on parts from China, including the 2170-type cylindrical lithium-ion battery cells from LGES' factory

and Volvo:

Volvo Cars will temporarily suspend production at its Belgian plant, where Volvo XC40 is manufactured, for three days. The reason is the same - ships had to be rerouted to around one of the world's busiest shipping lanes, leading to delays in the delivery of essential components, such as gearboxes.
