General Motors Yet To Contact Chinese Manufacturer Of Faulty Ignition Switches

The China-based company that manufactured the faulty ignition switch which prompted the recent recall of several General Motors sedans says it has not been contacted by the automaker over the matter as of yet.

GM recalled the Chevrolet Impala and Monte Carlo, Buick LaCrosse and Lucerne, and Cadillac DeVille and DTS earlier this month over a similar ignition switch flaw which has also plagued several of its other models. The company hasn’t gotten in touch with the switch’s maker, Dalian Alps Electronics Co., to discuss the defect, according to a Reuters report.

“As of today, we have not been contacted, or received any complaint from GM of any problems or defects with Alps’ switches,” said Takashi Sogo, group manager of investor and public relations at Dalian Alps.
