About half of the millions of General Motors vehicles recalled over a faulty and sometimes deadly ignition switch have been fixed, nine months after the first recall, according to a new report.
GM (GM) estimates that more than a million unfixed vehicles, of the more than 2.3 million needing a fix, remain on the roads, a spokesman told the New York Times. The automaker has promised a large campaign — amidst continued criticism for not recalling affected vehicles when evidence of an issue first emerged — to reach owners whose vehicles maybe have the defect, launched a social media campaign and staffed a recall call center with 72 employees.
