Michigan: Former Delphi Flint East Work Is Going To Mexico After GM-Delphi-UAW Agreement Ends
FLINT, MI -- The work to make instrument clusters at the former Delphi Flint East plant is going to Mexico, UAW officials said they were told.
The closing of the former Delphi Flint East plant came as a result of a 2007 agreement coming to an end between General Motors Co. and Delphi, said Lindsey Williams, vice president of corporate affairs for Delphi.

The local union, as well as the regional an national leadership, will begin negotiations to take care of members, either with a soft landing elsewhere, or finding new work as an alternative, Reyes said.
Reyes confirmed that the union was told the work was going to Mexico.
"While this is devastating news, it is not the final word, nor does it mark the end of our responsibilities to our members," he said." As a taxpayer, I am personally offended that less than four years after we helped keep them from liquidation, they show absolutely no regard for the financial well-being of these families in our community."
