The Chevrolet Sonic is among the latest General Motors' recalls.

General Motors has had a tough year. With its latest recall of Pontiac G8, Chevrolet Carprice and Cadillac models, GM has now recalled about 30 million cars in 2014.

The latest recall includes about 60,000 vehicles. On certain Pontiac G8 and Chevrolet Caprice models, the vehicles “may experience unintended key rotation from the ‘Run’ to ‘ACC’ position if the driver’s knee interacts with the ignition key,” according to GM.

The recalled Cadillacs have fuel pump issues, repairable at dealers. The Caprice model is a police vehicle.

No injuries or fatalities have been reported from the latest recall. GM reported one crash.

Despite the high profile of the ignition switch recall earlier this year which has been tied to at least 23 deaths so far, many GM car owners haven’t replacement faulty parts. As CNNMoney.com recently reported, more than one million cars with the fatal defects are still on the road.

The latest recalled models are: 2008-2009 Pontiac G8, 2011-2013 Chevrolet Caprice PPV, 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V, 2006-2007 Cadillac STS-V, 2014 Chevrolet Sonics.
