General Motors has issued two separate recalls in connection to their Chevrolet Cruze line of automobiles. 154122 2011-year models are being recalled due to a possible issue in connection to steering shaft installation. Though reportedly unrelated to this recall GM issued a recall last month for 2100 2011 Cruzes after having received a report of a steering wheel becoming completely detached from the steering column.
120000 automatic transmission-equipped Cruzes have been recalled due to an issue in which the displayed gear may not match the actual gear that the car is in. GM dealers will inspect the possibly affected cars in order to determine if replacement or repair is necessary. Consumers should receive information regarding this recall in a month.

If a defective product leads to an accident resulting in injury to a consumer such a consumer can hold a product manufacturer liable for their injuries. Consequently auto manufacturers and other product manufacturers may be quick to recall products that can lead to injury or fatal accidents so that such incidents have the least likelihood of occurring.
