If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, lung cancer, or asbestosis after working at the Chevrolet V8 Engine Plant, help is available. For decades, Flint V8 asbestos exposure affected thousands of General Motors employees and their families, often without warning. Many are only now learning how—and where—it happened.
If you or someone you love is facing illness after Flint V8 asbestos exposure, you may have a legal claim for compensation. Help is available for workers and family members across Michigan.
How Did Flint V8 Asbestos Exposure Happen?
The Flint V8 plant used asbestos in multiple departments from the 1940s through the 1980s. Exposure occurred during:
• Foundry casting and mold handling
• Insulation work on boilers, pumps, and turbines
• Maintenance of overhead pipe runs and ductwork
• Wearing asbestos gloves, aprons, and protective suits
Even workers not directly handling insulation—like janitors, electricians, and line mechanics—were exposed through disturbed dust.
Take-Home Exposure in Flint GM Households
Asbestos fibers clung to work clothes, lunchboxes, and vehicle interiors. When workers returned home to families in Flint, Burton, and Mount Morris, they unknowingly exposed loved ones. This is known as take-home asbestos exposure—and it has caused mesothelioma in many wives and children.
GM’s Knowledge of the Hazard
As with the Buick City, Saginaw, and Lansing plants, GM had internal documentation showing the risks of asbestos as early as the 1950s. But safety protections were inconsistent—and workers were rarely informed.
You’re Not Alone. Legal Help Is Available.
Attorney Lee W. Davis has represented over 3,000 former GM workers exposed in Saginaw, Flint and throughout Michigan. He began handling these cases in the 1990s and knows the job layouts, plant departments, and exposure points.
