The number of people killed in crashes caused by General Motors' defective ignition switches has reached 23 as of Friday, according to GM victim fund chief Ken Feinberg.

Feinberg said he has received 153 applications for compensation from families claiming to have lost a loved one in an accident caused by the ignition switches. GM has recalled 2.6 million small cars, primarily from between 2003 and 2007 model years to replace the ignition switches.

Claims that have not been awarded compensation are either still being evaluated or have insufficient records to prove their case. Families of people who died will get at least $1 million.
