http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35142213/ns/business-autos/

A total of 646,000 recalled, 140,000 of which are in the US, for a faulty window switch. Article doesn't say anything more specific really, other than a child died because of the issue.

About time these recalls are reported. Honda and Toyota have a history of doing them secretly. People need to understand Japanese make good cars but they suffer from the same problems others do time to time. However, they aren't superior to their American counterparts anymore.

Has anyone else noticed that the import companies that have targeted GM the most are the ones that seem to be doing the worst without GM in the number 1 spot?
