GM Announces New Recall On New Year’s Day

The new year provides a fresh start and the opportunity to leave past mistakes behind. But not for GM, which announced yet another recall on Thursday. The New Year’s Day announcement capped GM’s nightmare year, during which the automaker recalled more than 30.4 million vehicles. It was a bad year for the industry overall, with one in every five U.S. cars recalled in 2014. Ignition defects are at the heart of the recall, which affected 92,221 trucks and SUVs.
