As of July 2014, General Motors has recalled 17.1 million vehicles worldwide for faulty ignition switches in small cars. The switches can unexpectedly slip from “run” to “accessory,” thereby shutting off the engines. This problem will disable power steering and power brakes, potentially causing people to lose control of their vehicles. The faulty switch also stops airbags from inflating in a crash.
