GM (GM) ultimately recalled 2.6 million cars worldwide for the flawed ignition switch that's been tied to at least 13 deaths. And GM admitted that its employees knew of the problem at least a decade before the recall. Recalls hit a record. GM has issued more recalls this year than ever before. There have been 29 separate recalls covering 13.8 million U.S. cars and trucks, and 15.8 million vehicles worldwide. The surge is the result of new standards at GM. The automaker says it's issuing recalls more quickly when reports of problems emerge.

For owners of GM's most popular pickups, recalls have been almost a monthly occurrence this year. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and the GMC Sierra have been recalled six times so far in 2014, giving them the dubious honor of being the year's most frequently recalled vehicles. And it doesn't stop there-the two trucks have been recalled nine times since they hit showrooms 12 months ago.

Contrast that with how GM is handling tail lamp problems with the 2014 Chevrolet Impala. GM first addressed the problem (campaign #13158B) in a recall announced in October 2013.

Yes—recalling the recall. But it’s their different approaches to customer service that’s interesting. In 2013 Ford had a problem with engine fires in Escape SUVs with the 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. In November 2013, Ford issued Safety Recall 12S35. That was to address an overheating problem with the 1.6-liter engine, which could cause the cylinder head to crack and lead to an engine fire. But a part installed during that recall might have been incorrectly installed, creating a new risk.
