"The GM lawyer in a March 3 email told a lawyer representing the widow of a man killed in a GM-made U-Haul truck that GM couldn't be sued for punitive damages in the case."

I know when I sue someone I'm going to trust that entities lawyers advise that they can't be sued for that. She should sue her own lawyer for being so stupid to believe his response.

So,,,, does this mean they also no longer need to do recalls on those pre-bankruptcy vehicles?

Sorry. I’ve been through this a couple of years ago. Got lucky, but it is true.
“Old” GM still exists as a shell, but doesn’t have any assets. Sue all you want, there is nothing there to collect.
The “New” GM is not liable for any vehicles built by “Old” GM.
