Even in the auto industry, new hires are brought in at lower wages until they pass "probation". "Two Tier" wage scales are nothing new, even in the unionized plants.
However, you're right, that is low for them. I applied at the GM plant back home in Ohio in the mid '90s and the starting wage then was $11/hour. Last I heard it is now somewhere around $14/hour.
