According to a Bloomberg report, a couple has sought an order in a Texas Federal Court that will force General Motors Co to send a "Park it Now" warning to prevent future accidents or deaths due to the faulty ignition system.

Charles and Grace Silvas has sued the automaker this month in a proposed class-action suit and are seeking a maximum of $10 billion in lost value to the 1.6 million vehicles GM has recalled. Based on the request filing with US District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos in Corpus Christi, courts have the judicial power to enact such orders especially when a need to prevent people from being harmed arises.

The plaintiffs have said in the filing, "While GM proposes partial fixes, additional incidents of ignition switch failures will certainly occur. Injuries and fatalities are the inevitable consequence of such additional accidents."

The Silvas couple have charged GM for allegedly covering up the defects and subsequently reducing the reselling value of the affected cars. Their case is also seeking group status and is awaiting for a decision, Bloomberg said.

GM has said that it will not be commenting on lawsuits and is focused on ensuring customers' peace of mind and safety in light of the faulty ignition fiasco.

The Detroit-based firm earlier revealed that it identified 12 deaths that have links to vehicles with the faulty ignition switches. Most of the vehicles that are said to have been outfitted with defective switches include Chevrolet Cobalts and HHRs as well as Opel, Pontiac and Saturn models and other GM car models made in the mid-2000s. Bloomberg said the car company is currently under a criminal probe by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Last March 18, GM Chief Executive Officer Mary Barra issued a statement about the recalled vehicles and assured car owners that as long as the ignition key is not being weighed down with other items or additional keys, the car models that were recalled are safe to be driven.
