The link "claims" that "no one is buying new cars" than corrects it self and says they are but "not at on the scale they once were".

Earth to the author (at least here in the U.S)...

In 2007 - U.S. auto sales totaled just over 16 million units. We all know what happened in 2008 when sales plummeted by nearly 3 million units. In 2009 sales fell by almost another 3 million units.

However - since 2009 - sales have increase each year by significant margins. In 2013 - sales surpassed what was sold in 2007 and 2006.

In 2014 - sales are up over 2013.

Now I am not familar with the overall worldwide car sales. But he does alude to the problem in the U.S. also - which is patently false.

So I am going to theorize that this is just his conspiracy theory....
