Chrysler will offer new jobs in Michigan to the majority its workers at a stamping plant in Twinsburg, Ohio, as it closes that facility. The automaker will add some jobs at its Sterling Heights and Warren, Michigan, stamping plants as it facelifts the slow-selling Chrysler Sebring and Dodge Avenger .
The Twinsburg stamping plant, which creates body panels for the automaker’s minivans, is set to close later this year. The workers received a bit of good news last weekend, however, when union officials announced that most workers could be transferred to the automaker’s Sterling Heights and Warren, Michigan, plants. Sterling Heights would get most of the new workers.
Still, the move isn’t likely enough to save the Sterling Heights plant, which is set to close by the end of 2010.
