What is this Case About: General Motors Company (GM) Failed to Disclose Problems with its Airbags

According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants failed to disclose that: (i) GM downplayed concerns with its vehicles’ airbags and the need to record additional warranty accruals for related product recalls; (ii) GM overstated the extent and efficacy of its efforts to analyze defects in its vehicles’ airbag inflators; (iii) Cruise’s AVs and/or AV technology were less safe and well-developed than defendants had led investors, regulators, and the general public to believe; (iv) accordingly, regulatory approval of Cruise’s AV products was unsustainable and the prospects for widespread regulatory approval and adoption of Cruise’s AV products were overstated; and (v) all the foregoing subjected GM to an increased risk of governmental and/or regulatory scrutiny and enforcement action, significant legal liabilities, product recalls, and reputational harm.

After a series of disclosures, including the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's recommendation to recall more than 50 million airbag inflators that have been linked to potentially deadly explosions; the California DMV's suspension of Cruise's deployment and driverless testing permits due to misrepresentations "related to [the] safety of the autonomous technology of its vehicles;" and GM's pause of all its AV operations across the country, GM's stock fell, harming investors.
