GM Recall: More Defective Switches – No More Victims “Eligible” for Some Compensation
July, 2014
GM Switch problem in 7.6 million more recalled vehicles. One difference from the previous recall is that in addition to putting more Americans at risk both in GM vehicles and all other motorists, pedestrians, and cyclists, is that these crash victims will not be “eligible” for the GM compensation fund.““The compensation fund should be open clearly and readily to anyone who suffered death or injury as a result of these similar defects which were concealed in the same reprehensible way,” Senator Richard Blumenthal, Democrat of Connecticut, said in an interview Friday.”
