Spring Hill was the site of the Saturn Corporation production facility, which operated from 1990 to 2007. The Saturn S-Series, Saturn ION, and Saturn VUE were produced there. In 2007, the General Motors Corporation (GM), the parent company of Saturn, shut the facility down to retool the facility for production of other GM vehicles. The plant reopened in February 2008 and became the assembly point for the new Chevrolet Traverse. However, after a battle among plants in Spring Hill, Orion Township, MI and Janesville, WI, GM announced on June 26, 2009 that they had chosen to build a new small car in Orion Township.[6] Nearly 2,500 Spring Hill auto workers were faced lay-off, buy-out and early retirement.[7] The Spring Hill plant was idled in late 2009, when production of the Traverse was moved to Lansing, Michigan and is set to resume production in 2012, after conversion to production of powertrains.
