2009 SATURN AURA Complaints

THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE INSIDE OF MY VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING AND BEFORE THE CAR IS EVEN STARTED.

THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V153000 (STEERING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200,000.

MY CAR PULLS TO THE LEFT DESPITE HAVING IT ALIGNED 3 TIMES AT 2 DIFFERENT SHOPS. THE POWER STEERING HAS FAILED COMPLETELY 3 TIMES WITHIN THE LAST 3000 MILES. FAILURE WAS NOTED AS POWER STEERING WHINE FOLLOWED BY A BLOWN HOSE OR SEAL AND LOSS OF ALL FLUID AND POWER STEERING ASSISTANCE. THERE IS A RECALL #14116 FOR MY MAKE MODEL AND YEAR WHICH MATCHES THE SYMPTOMS OF MY PROBLEMS BUT WHEN CONTACTING THE MANUFACTURER I WAS INFORMED MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL.

FUEL GAS PUMP IS LEAKING. NO ACCIDENT OR INJURY TO CAR, JUST STARTED LEAKING WHEN RUNNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 SATURN AURA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL FUMES EMITTED IN AND AROUND THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.

THE BACK RIGHT WELD ON MY DRIVERS SEAT BROKE. I WAS DRIVING ONE DAY AND HEARD A LOUD POP AND IT SOUNDED LIKE MY SEAT SKIPPED GROVES IN MOVEMENT, BUT MY SEAT IS POWER. THE BACK RIGHT WELD SNAPPED AND I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURE PROBLEM. I WEIGH 206 LBS SO IT'S NOT AN ISSUE OF BEING TOO "HEAVY" AND RECENT POSTS SAY IT CAN COST UP TO 1000$ TO FIX. I FIND THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR SUDDENLY REDUCED SPEED, ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON STATING TO SERVICE TRACTION. HAD THE CAR REPAIRED. IT HAPPENED TWICE SINCE, EACH TIME A DAY AFTER PICKING UP THE CAR FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THE LAST TIME, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 28TH, I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE CAR SUDDENLY REDUCED SPEED, LIGHTS ON. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. CONTACTED GM, NO HELP AT ALL!

WENT TO TAKE DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE IN REVERSE OR DRIVE. YESTERDAY TRANSMISSION BUCKED ALL DAY WHILE DRIVING. LOOKED ON INTERNET I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM ON THIS SAME VEHICLE. I CALLED THE DEALER THEY SAID NO RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM WANT ME TO PAY $3000 OR BETTER TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT. IF GM KNOWS ABOUT IT WHY IS THERE NO RECALL ON THE FAULTY PART? PLEASE HELP ME AND THE OTHER DISSATISFIED CUSTOMERS THAT GOT SCREWED ON THESE VEHICLES AND LAUNCH A RECALL FOR ANOTHER FLAW BY GM. THEY ARE MAKING MONEY ON THEIR MISTAKES AND THAT IS WRONG.

THE CAR WOULD NOT START, WOULD NOT EVEN TURN OVER. WE THOUGH IT WAS A STARTER PROBLEM BUT NOTICED WHEN WE SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL IT WOULD START RIGHT UP. WE ALSO NOTICE THE SHIFTING DID NOT SEEM TO LOCK INTO GEAR AS IT NORMALLY DOES. THEN WE NOTICED THAT IF WE PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND WERE ON EVEN A SLIGHT HILL THE CAR WOULD KEEP ROLLING. THE DOORS NORMALLY UNLOCK WHEN THE CAR IS PLACED IN PARK BUT THAT STOPPED HAPPENING. WE CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THERE WAS ONE ISSUED IN 2009 FOR THE EXACT PROBLEM WE WERE HAVING. WE TOOK IT TO THE NEAREST DEALER WHO SAID OUR CAR WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT STATED IN THE RECALL THE EXACT MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR.
