While noting that I have no fondness for bailouts or how this particular situation was handled, it is a *normal* and *well established* outcome of a bankruptcy that liabilities DO NOT survive the filing, The few that can are outlined in the bankruptcy laws - and consumer design flaws are not one of them. There's nothing unusual about that.
Yeah, it's bad manners on GM's part, but accepting liability for any of these incidents will set a precident in the opposite direction and open GM to liability for all of them. They're taking the prudent course from a business liablity perspective.
