GM Recall Accused of Missing Cobalts With Faulty Ignition – Bloomberg
By Linda Sandler
Lance Cooper, a solo practitioner in Georgia who represents the family of a woman who died in a Cobalt crash in 2010, is one of the attorneys for plaintiffs in the San Francisco suit. He sent government regulators a letter last month saying there are more faulty GM models still on the road.
Six days later, on Feb. 25, the automaker more than doubled its recall to include other mid-2000s GM models, including Saturn Ions and Pontiac Solstices, saying their ignition switches could unexpectedly turn off if jostled by a driver or weighed down by a heavy ring of keys, cutting power to the engine and air bags.
