PROCUREMENT AND ACQUISTIONS ASSIGNMENT

A. Find three different articles that explain the General Motors (GM) recalls regarding vehicle ignition

switches and airbag wiring:

1) From a “television news” source website (e.g., ABC, CBS, CNN, FOX; MSNBC, NBC, PBS, etc.).

2) From a major newspaper source (e.g., NY Times, Washington Post, etc.).

3) From a weekly/monthly print news source (Business Week, Newsweek, Time, etc.).

B. Summarize each article.

Note: Our focus will be to consider the recalls in terms of the UCC with an emphasis upon sellers’/

buyers’ contractual rights and remedies, warranties, breach, etc. Do NOT turn your inquiry into areas of

federal law such as National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recall procedures, federal or

state “lemon laws”, or tort/personal injury laws.
