Default AC Delco problems

I heard yesterday that AC-Delco might be filing for bankruptcy soon. Is bankruptcy really on the horizon for AC-Delco? What have you guys heard?

The news here tonight announced that AC will no longer make spark plugs here. They have been made here for over 100 years.

That spark plug plug comment is stomach tightening. Can you get more American than an AC spark plug?
