The New York Times examines the ongoing scandal over faulty ignition switches at General Motors, noting that the company has already recalled 2.6 million cars and is facing a wave of lawsuits and settlements over possible deaths and injuries related to the malfunctions. The Times says that Kenneth R. Feinberg, the victim-compensation expert hired by GM, “is nearing the final stages of an elaborate process to determine who is eligible for payments and for how much.†The plan is expected to be made public in the next two weeks and “is seen as critical to the company’s ability to move beyond an issue that has prompted numerous investigations, congressional hearings, a $35 million federal penalty and withering public criticism.â€
