Diverting Chips to Other Vehicles

[MyGreatEscape 7]

In a forum discussing the possible end for the Ford Escape, a few users mentioned chips were being diverted from Escape production so that other cars and trucks could be built. Does anyone know if this is true? The recent post about the foot activated hatch release being removed gave me some hope, but not if they're going to divert microchips away from the Escape altogether.
