2007 SATURN SKY Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN SKY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN SKY. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG OFF WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

AFTER A GM IGNITION RECALL ON SATURN SKY--WE RECEIVED NOTICE AND TOOK OUR CAR TO THE GM SHOP TO DO THE WORK. HOWEVER NOW THE "AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT" STAYS ON---WE DID MUCH RESEARCH AND REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT CUSHION AND SENSOR-----THIS DID NOT RESULT IN THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT GOING OFF--WE TOOK IT TO THE GM DEALER TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC TO SEE WHY THE SEAT/SENSOR REPLACEMENT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY STATE THE SEAT IS PROPERLY INSTALLED AND IT IS NOT CAUSING THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ISSUE---BUT THEY DID NOT TELL US WHAT WAS THE DIAGNOSED PROBLEM. MANY SATURN SKY OWNERS HAVE WRITTEN TO YOU AND ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THEIR FAMILIES, THE FACT THEY CANNOT PASS STATE REQUIRED SAFETY INSPECTIONS; WHICH RENDERS THEIR GM PRODUCT COMPLETELY USELESS. GM HAS NEVER RESPONDED TO THESE ISSUES FOR SATURN SKY OWNERS OR FOR PONTIAC SOLSTICE OWNERS AND THE NHTSA LIKEWISE HAVE NOT RESPONDED TO THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE, DESPITE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. MANY OTHER AIR BAG ISSUES HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED BY YOUR BOARD FOR A VARIETY OF VEHICLES---WHY NOT THIS ONE? I WILL BE APPROACHING MY STATE AND FEDERAL REPRESENTATIVES WITH THIS CONCERN AS WELL; IT IS A PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. MY HUSBAND HAS ALSO WRITTEN TO THE NHTSA HAS NEVER RESPONDED. WILL YOU RESPOND NOW?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN SKY. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

AIR BAG ACTIVATION IS MALFUCTIONING. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS DESIGNED TO ACTIVATE WHEN SOMEONE SITS IN THE SEAT. IT IS NOT DOING SO.

PASSABGER AIRBAG SENSOR STOPPED WORKING AFTER A FRIEND WEIGHT 185 SAT IN THE SEAT AT 64K MILES

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT HAS JUST COME ON, ON MY 2007 SATURN SKY. AFTER GETTING THE ERROR CODE SCANNED AIR BAG CODE B0081. I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM. AFTER SPEAKING TO THE GM SERVICE MANAGER AND MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE AND DOING SOME RESEARCH, I QUICKLY LEARNED THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND ISSUE FOR THE 2007 SATURN SKY AS WITH THE CADILLAC CTS AND KIA. BOTH VEHICLES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE. BASED ON THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SAFETY SYSTEM. WHY HAS NO RECALL BEEN ISSUED TO SOLVE THIS MALFUNCTIONING SYSTEM?

FAILURE OF PASSENGER SEAT SEAT SENSOR, ONCE COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY, AND NOW HAS FAILURE AGAIN.CAR HAS LESS THAN 25000 MILES ON IT. PPS FAILED FIRST TIME AT 8100 MILES

PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY. DID SOME RESEARCH, APPEARS THIS IS A "COMMON PROBLEM" WITH ALL THE SKY/SOLSTICE CARS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE SEAT SENSOR. MY CAR IS A LOW MILEAGE, GARAGE KEPT CAR WITH ONLY 42K MILES ON IT. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. ALSO, IF OTHER MAKES AND MODELS HAVE HAD THIS AIRBAG SENSOR RECALLED, WHY HAS GM NOT RECALLED THE SKY/SOLSTICE; ARE THE PASSENGERS SAFETY NOT AS IMPORTANT IN OUR CARS?

I GET A "SERVICE AIR BAG" MESSAGE WHEN I START THE CAR. THIS WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED IN 2011 AFTER I GOT THE SAME MESSAGE AT THAT TIME. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND IT HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED AS THE AIR BAG SENSOR MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I UNDERSTAND FROM WEB SEARCHES THAT THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING OFTEN FOR THIS MODEL OF THE SATURN SKY.
