GM to rework or replace 3.4 million keys

The scale of the problem facing the car manufacturer becomes apparent from its recent (June 2014) announcement that it will be recalling 3.4 million cars to deal with the ignition switch problems that caused the current recall crisis. Bumpy roads and weights attached to the keyring can cause the switch to turn itself off. Congressional investigators in the United States have announced that General Motors has fixed 154,731 out of 2.59 million cars involved in the recall.
