2007 SATURN OUTLOOK Complaints

I HAVE A 2007 SATURN OUTLOOK AND BOTH OF MY HEADLIGHTS AND ALL OF THE RELATED WIRING HAVE BEEN REPLACED BECAUSE THE WIRES MELTED. IN ALL MY YEARS, I'VE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE HEADLIGHT WIRING. THIS DOES NOT SEEM TO BE A STANDARD MAINTENANCE ITEM. SO I ASSUME THIS IS THE RESULT OF POOR MANUFACTURING OR DESIGN. I'VE HAD MY CAR SERVICED AT AN AUTHORIZED GM DEALERSHIP AND I'VE SPENT APPROXIMATELY $600 ON THIS ISSUE. *TR

DRIVER SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT STARTED SHUTTING OFF INTERMITTENTLY AND LATER CONSTANT OFF. DETERMINED NOT TO BE A BULB FAILURE BUT HEAT DAMAGE TO THE WIRING HARNESS AT THE BULB CONNECTOR. TALKED TO GM DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND TOLD THE WIRING HARNESS WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED FOR BOTH HEADLIGHTS DUE TO THIS DAMAGE. ALSO TOLD THAT THEY ARE SEEING THIS ON A NUMBER OF OUTLOOKS. THIS PROBLEM RENDERS LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS INOPERABLE. *TR

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLAMP ON MY 2007 SATURN OUTLOOK 7 TIMES, AND THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY ONCE, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A WIRING PROBLEM, CAUSING A "SHORT". THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY ISSUE, AS THE HEADLAMPS SHOULD NOT FAIL AT THIS RATE. *TR

I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH MY 2007 SATURN OUTLOOK HEADLIGHTS. HEADLIGHT WENT OUT AROUND 20,000 MILES SENT TO DEALER FIXED. HEADLIGHT GOES OUT AGAIN AROUND 5,000 MILES LATER TOOK TO DEALER REPLACED HEADLIGHT. FINE FOR ANOTHER 20,000 MILES AND AGAIN SAME PROBLEM. THIS TIME OUT OF WARRANTY. I REPLACED BULB. 1 WEEK LATER I FIND CONNECTOR TO BULB IS BURNED. I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR THAT AT NIGHT WHEN IT BURNS AGAIN WORRIED WIFE AND CHILDREN ARE IN DANGER. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT INTERMITTENTLY TURNS ON AND OFF AT WILL. DURATION > A YEAR; NOT DRIVEN ALOT AT NIGHT. CONCERNED ABOUT MELTED WIRING ALSO. PRIOR TO THIS, STEERING LOCKED UP WHEN GOING THROUGH PUDDLES. MADE AN EXTREMELY LOUD SCREECHING NOISE. DEALER SERVICED PROBLEM IN WARRANTY BUT DID NOT COMPLETELY CORRECT IT. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 SATURN OUTLOOK THAT A VERY MUCH LIKE. ONE PROBLEM THAT I HAVE ENCOUNTERED HOWEVER IS THE LOW BEAM DRIVERSIDE HEADLIGHT. I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO AND I ENDED UP CHANGING THE BULB ABOUT FOUR MONTHS AGO. THE NEW ONE BECAME INTERMITTENT LIKE THE PREVIOUS, THIS TIME HOWEVER I FOUND THE CONNECTOR FOR THE BULB TO BE ALL MELTED AWAY ALONG WITH THE "NEW BULB I INSTALLED. I SEE FROM THIS AN OTHER FORUMS THAT I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS ISSUE. DO YOU KNOW IF WITH THE RISK OF FIRE IF GM IS TAKING ANY ACTION TO RECALL WHAT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON AND DANGEROUS ISSUE? *TR
