US-AUTO-SAFETY-RECALL-GM-CONGRESS

US Senator Edward Markey (R), D-Massachusetts, holds up a faulty General Motors ignition switch during a press conference with the family members of deceased drivers on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, April 1, 2014, ahead of a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing with the General Motors CEO. General Motors Chief Executive Mary Barra faces tough questioning in Congress on Tuesday over why the company ignored a faulty ignition problem for a decade despite numerous accident reports and 13 deaths. Also in the dock will be the US auto safety agency, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), under attack for not acting on its own evidence that the ignitions posed dangerous risks to drivers.
