Were that the case, we'd see a prevalence of people unable to afford cars. This is not the case. The cost of an automobile is an even smaller fraction of an average person's disposable income than it was during Henry Ford's day. And this isn't considering the fact that a modern car is far safer, more comfortable, more fuel efficient, and just broadly way better than a model T.
American workers are too highly paid to make many manufacturing jobs viable in the US. If GM et al. were to pay American workers more they would either not be making enough money to stay afloat, or the cost of their cars would rise considerably (and likely lose sales and not be profitable anyway).
