GM auditors doubt company can survive General Motors Corp. says there is "substantial doubt" about the company's viability and that bankruptcy is possible unless it can implement a broad restructuring plan, according to a regulatory filing today.

U.S. vehicle sales have fallen 40 percent from the peak in 2007 and global sales have fallen 23.5 percent since January 2008.
