GM Kicks Off New Year With More Ignition Switch Recalls

Even on New Year's Day, General Motors couldn't find respite from the ignition switch crisis that shook the automaker from the executive suite on down in 2014.

GM announced Thursday that it has recalled 92,000 additional SUVs and trucks for the potentially deadly flaw. The government was notified of its intentions Dec. 23 — a dubious punctuation point on what became the year of the recall for automakers.

GM and the industry as a whole called back more vehicles last year than in any year in history: more than 63.5 million industry-wide, according to the firm Stericycle, a company that tracks recalls, in 800 separate campaigns. The total vehicles recalled are more than twice the all-time record set in 2004.

One word, "American".

The U.S. can no longer produce any electronic products, as the Japanese, Chinese and the Koreans dominate this segment. Computers? Chinese and Koreans. Other electronics? Pretty much Japanese or Korean.

And it's not just this, the U.S. fails to produce anything good now, as all the manufacturing jobs left the U.S.

And yet, the dumb kid on this website once thought, America sucks at producing "only" cars.

Kids like him are the reason why the U.S. is failing as a country, as they don't know jack about what's happening in his country, let alone the world. So sad.
