General Motors said Friday that it will invest $325 million in its Warren, Mich., transmission factory, which the automaker said would create or save 418 jobs.
The plant will get equipment to build transmission parts for future electric vehicles, the company said in a statement.
The timing of the investment and the exact components that the plant will build were not disclosed.
The company would not say how many of the 418 jobs will be new positions. But a summary of GM’s new four-year contract with the United Auto Workers union says 360 jobs will be added at the plant for a new transmission that originally was to be built in Mexico. The union said that the jobs were brought to the U.S. as part of the new contract.
