General Motors Co. has repaired 154,731 cars of the 2.59 million recalled worldwide to fix a defective ignition switch tied to 13 fatalities, according to a memo released by U.S. congressional investigators.
About four months after the recall began, the largest U.S. automaker, has shipped 396,253 repair kits globally, the House Energy and Commerce Committee said today. A lot of the delay has been caused by the need to ramp up factories to make the replacement switches, which GM has said will take until Oct. 4.
