GM Now In Trouble For Selling Certified Used Cars That Had Never Had Recall Work Performed

General Motors Co. now faces an investigation by the Federal Trade Commission, adding to a list of several authorities and agencies looking into the automaker’s conduct after its delayed ignition switch recall last year.

The automaker disclosed the investigation in a regulatory filing Thursday. It was unclear if GM or its dealers are the target, however.

GM said it was notified June 3 of the investigation by the FTC that concerned “certified pre-owned vehicle advertising where dealers had certified vehicles allegedly needing recall repairs.”

I don't suppose that it would be too much trouble to determine if the parts needed to correct those problems were Available at the time.

I cannot see how this would be a GM problem -since GM does not directly control the vehicles that dealers keep on their lots. (new or Used)
