About ZIP Code 48556

Delphi East, the former General Motors electronics and components manufacturing complex in Genesee County, Michigan, operates under dedicated ZIP code 48556. The ZIP+4 records identify historic facilities including AC Spark Plug, AC Rochester, and Delco Electronics on Dort Highway and Davison Road. These legendary GM divisions produced ignition systems, electronics, and precision components for decades before the 1999 Delphi spinoff.

AC Spark Plug, founded in 1908 in Flint, was one of the original automotive suppliers. When GM spun off Delphi in 1999, Flint East was among the facilities transferred to the new company. A 2007 agreement kept the plant operating, but it eventually closed in November 2013. The designation was added to postal records in October 2008. Flint is the valid mailing city for this designation.
