The Flint assembly line of the Michigan-born trademark corporation General Motors was the first business entity to complain about the quality of Flint water, suggesting the supply was too corrosive to use in manufacturing. The issue was quickly resolved with General Motors switching to an alternative water supply from suburbs surrounding Flint. The details of this switch were not made publicly available.
