NEW YORK (AP) ― General Motors Corp. says it's cutting production by another 117,000 vehicles as a result of lower demand for pickup trucks and SUVs.

GM spokesman Tony Sapienza said Monday that the Detroit-based automaker will achieve the cuts by eliminating one shift each at its Moraine, Ohio, and Shreveport, La., plants. Most of the cuts will affect production of full-size trucks and sport utility vehicles.

Sapienza says the cuts bring GM's total production cuts to just under the 300,000 units company officials had hoped to cut this year.
