GM's Big Trouble

(4/4/2014) GM is really in a big trouble. The recently "admitted" ignition switch problems in some of GM cars has cause 13 deaths. The troubling fact is that GM knew this problem 9 years ago, had a solution (cost around $1) to fix the problem, and decided not to implement that fix. GM's problem does not stop here. GM is facing another quality problem. The airbag issues on some GM models (1.6 millions compact cars estimated) may cause 303 death in the U.S.

In the same time, Chrysler recalled 870,000 SUV's on its brake problems, BMW had around 250,000 X5 trucks recalled due to a fragile bolt, 1.9 millions of Toyota Prius are also recalled due to software glitches.

(5/20/2014) GM's problem continues to escalate. At this moment the total number of GM vehicles recalled has reached more than 15 millions.
