The only ones that get a meaningful financial outcome in a class action law suit is the lawyers. They make millions for themselves and their firm, but the people whose supposed benefit is their stated objective get some meaningless "compensation" the ends up being a check that wouldn't amount to a decent coupon at the grocery store.

By choosing to handle the key issue in this way, GM is sacrificing huge quantities of public confidence in their products, plus showing a complete lack of concern for consumer satisfaction. In 2008, my 1997 Toyota Tacoma was part of a recall on the frames. They took my truck and paid me 150% of Kelly Blue Book value for EXCELLENT, regardless of condition. I bought this truck used for $12000, they paid me $10500 for a truck I had driven for almost 8 years! $1500 depreciation for 8 years! What did I buy with that check? No question...another Tacoma, which they gave me another $1000 off the price I negotiated because I bought another Toyota. I knew if they would back up my 11 year old truck that well, I knew they would stand by my new truck. I've since then sold that new Tacoma and bought another newer 2012 Tacoma. They screwed up with that frame provider, but they bent over backwards as a corporation to try to make sure they didn't lose me as a customer in the future. I'm sure it was expensive for Toyota to handle it that way, but I am a loyal customer because of it.
Giving customers this Mickey Mouse (my apologies to Mr. Mouse) fix to this questionable CYA problem does not give me warm feelings about GM or their commitment to customer satisfaction. GM, you're eroding a customer base that is particularly passionate about what they drive. How a company responds to adverse situations shows the true character of that company and this is showing a severe lack of integrity on your part.

Check the poll on this site, GM. Almost 85% of respondents are giving the thumbs down to your "remedy". Take a bite of humble pie, go back and rethink this knee-jerk response and come back with something better. What you call fixing a problem is a far cry from giving owners a satisfying solution. It might satisfy the lawyers but it doesn't address the loss in confidence by putting a defective component in our cars in the first place. Unless an 85% disapproval rating is acceptable to you as a company.

Unless they somehow remotely disable my switchblade FOB, my car will not go back to the dealer for this ridiculous recall. It is all PR to make up for the terrible image GM has created for themselves by hiding real safety issues. This is plain STUPID.

Can't the dealer just snap the key from the fob, attach a ring, call it a day, and deliver the car? Way faster and cheaper while still addressing the safety exposure brought to light by the people with the freakishly large knees.
