2007 SATURN AURA Complaints

I HAVE A 2007 SATURN AURA. I'M CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING THE ISSUE ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 14V252000 (RECALL # 13036). ADDITIONAL TO THIS ISSUE, I'M COMPLAINING THAT THIS ISSUE COULD BE ASSOCIATED WITH DRAINING MY CAR BATTERY. SINCE THIS ISSUE I HAVE REPLACED THREE (3) BRAND NEW BATTERIES. I HAD MY ALTERNATOR CHECKED TWICE AND BOTH TEST RESULTS DIAGNOSIS WAS PASSED. WHICH MEANS THAT MY ALTERNATOR IS GOOD AND DIDN'T NEED TO BE REPLACED. EACH TIME I HAVE MY BATTERY REPLACED WITH A BRAND NEW BATTERY THE LIFE SPAN OF THE BATTERY IS ABOUT 3 WEEKS. AFTER THAT THE BATTERY IS DEAD. IF I DON'T REPLACE THE BATTERY AND GET A JUMP START THE LIFE SPAN OF THE BATTERY LAST ABOUT 7-10 DAYS BEFORE I WILL NEED ANOTHER JUMP START. TODAY, AUGUST 9, 2014 I AGAIN HAD MY BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR DIAGNOSED AND BOTH PASSED THE TEST. I WAS TOLD BY A CERTIFIED GM MECHANIC THAT MY ISSUE COULD BE RELATED TO ELECTRICAL SYSTEM THAT IS DRAINING (KILLING) MY BATTERY BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BATTERY AND THE ALTERNATOR. COULD THIS ISSUE (14V252) BE THE REASON MY I'M EXPERIENCING MY BATTERY TO DIED/DRAIN BECAUSE OF MY CAR IS AFFECTED BY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL ISSUES? THE CONSUMER STATED THE SHIFTING CABLE WAS REPLACED TWICE AND THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. UPDATED 2/24/2015 *JS *TR
