A nondescript facility south of Cleveland has become an early staging ground for the auto industry’s next supply-chain pivot: replacing vehicle hardware from China.
The plant belongs to Eagle Wireless, a maker of electronics that was formed in late 2025, largely in response to a federal rule that bans certain Chinese connected-car software and hardware in U.S. vehicles by the end of the decade.
“There’s a massive opportunity for us,” said TJ Dembinski, president of Eagle Wireless. He said Eagle grew out of a need to counter China’s dominance in modules, which he knew would be challenging for U.S. automakers as the regulations took effect.
