U.S. News Article on GM Recall and Nader’s Warnings
August, 2014
Dear Care for Crash Victims Community Members:
To recognize Nader’s warnings, it takes a scandal involving tragedies….
And we still don’t know how much GM and NHTSA knew using OnStar data.
“OnStar handles about 10,000 emergency service requests a month, GM says. The figure that could go down as drivers have a greater understanding about what is (and isn’t) going on with their car….
A company spokesperson declined to comment on how the system’s data could have informed GM about faulty parts.”
Over the decade of this scandal, a GM report, published by NHTSA, in 2007 suggests there may have been about 3,500 airbag non-deployment frontal crashes.
Has NHTSA requested all such airbag non- deployment frontal crash OnStar data be made available to the public?
