GM halts deliveries of certain 2012-13 vehicles to fix software glitch
 Mike Colias
GM has stopped the sale of several of its most popular 2013 vehicles because of a software glitch that affects their OnStar communication systems. A software problem prevents OnStar's crash notification system from sending an alert to the OnStar call center in accidents that do not trigger an airbag deployment, such as a rear-end collision. GM is working to fix the problem on 60,000 vehicles on dealer lots.
