About Detroit Chassis
Detroit Chassis assembles complete chassis for complex vehicles, from large motor homes and buses to smaller electric and conventionally powered vehicles. It is exceptionally proficient in building highly complex major subassemblies, from engines to wheel-and-axle systems, and bringing them together into finished vehicles that roll off the line at its large, modern, flexible facility in Detroit.
As a core subsidiary of Spectra LLC, Detroit Chassis also works seamlessly with its sister company: Magnys LLC in Livonia, Michigan, a process and manufacturing engineering firm, which provides manufacturing services and sequencing, and its subsidiary VSim, a developer of proprietary software for CNC and PLC. In coordination, these units can design, model, simulate and engineer production of entire new vehicles and other products and prepare them for very efficient sequencing and materials management in assembly.
With 218,000 square feet of assembly operations on 33 acres and a capacity for 90,000 vehicle builds a year, the Detroit Chassis Plant has assembled more than one billion dollars worth of vehicles since it began operations in 1999.
Detroit Chassis has a full time, on site Employee Assistance Program (EAP) coordinated by the Children’s Aid Society of Southeastern Michigan. Our EAP responds to requests for information to resolve issues in the following areas: Legal, Housing, Employment, Health, Education and Family.
Detroit Chassis has a full-time on-site Chaplain to respond to the spiritual needs of our associates. We set aside time for all associates to study faith together each week and we invite customers, suppliers, and business associates to share in this time with us.
