Good!! Didn’t people die from this?
Yes, some died and many injured.
Seems like in the position they are in, this would be another pass through to the taxpayer/funny-money basket GM is currently in.
We might better be asking why not sell this GM thing to the highest bidder or coalition of bidders (should they want it parted out), even at the cost of eating a loss and doing a taxpayer fund of the fix/compensation. It isn’t too big to fail, though it probably is not too bad to find itself reborn.
Yes, it is said that 124 people died from this.
GM tried to sweep the problem under the rug while more and more of their customers were dying on the road. And they are still trying to avoid responsibility for their screw ups.
On the other hand, VW didn’t kill a single person with their emissions cheat, and they didn’t try to avoid the consequences of their actions. It is costing them billions.
FUGM.
Yeah, a bunch.
