The U.S. House committee investigating General Motors Co.'s delayed ignition-switch recall has now received more than 1 million pages of documents from the carmaker, The Detroit News reports.
The newspaper says 800,000 pages of material has been delivered in the past two months to the House Energy and Commerce Committee. The panel hopes to determine why GM waited more than a decade to recall 2.6 million cars with faulty ignition switches linked to 13 deaths.
The committee also has received more than 15,000 pages of documents from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. That material was requested to help reveal why the agency apparently ignored a call in 2007 by one of its senior investigators to launch a probe into the switch defect.
