Attorney Wants Explanation Why General Motors Ignition Switch Recall Took So Long – Auto World News
By Matt Mecuro
Lance Cooper, an attorney representing the family of a woman killed four years ago while driving a 2005 Cobalt, is suing the automaker and hopes the NHTSA opens a “Timeliness Query investigation” into Gm over the recall, according to USA Today.
“Testimony of GM engineers and documents produced in Melton v. General Motors et. al., show that the automaker actually knew about the defective ignition switch in these vehicles in 2004 before it began selling” reads a letter to NHTSA from Cooper, according to USA Today.
