Goldman Sachs and Bank of America will face challenges on Wednesday as proxy advisers recommend investors vote for the banks to separate their CEO and chairman's roles, in an effort to improve the companies' governance.

The Detroit automaker said that while its average sales price per vehicle was down slightly from last year at just under $50,000, pickup sales remained strong, and it's not seeing the price erosion across its lineup that other companies have experienced.
