2007 SATURN SKY Complaints

AS WITH EVERY OTHER SATURN SKY OUT THERE THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SENSOR HAS FAILED. AS EVERYONE ELSE HAS SAID , YOU GUYS ARE FULL OF IT ,YOU WILL WAIT UNTIL PEOPLE DIE WITH THIS ISSUE. IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM STEP UP AND RECALL IT.

TYPICAL ENGINEERED PROBLEMS @ LOW MILEAGE: SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR, DASH INFO LIGHTS, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND EXTREMELY NOISY AC SYSTEM. A RECALL WOULD BE NICE, BUT THE CAR IS AN ORPHAN. (A DISCONTINUED VEHICLE, WITH LITTLE SUPPORT.) SAFE AT ANY SPEED ?

THE SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT NO LONGER WORKS! SENSOR LIGHT IS CONTINUOUS ON! MY CAR IS GENTLY USED W/UNDER 20,000 MILES ON IT! IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD I FEEL THE MANUFACTURER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR. THE PROBLEM STARTED 06/14 BUT YOUR CALENDAR WOULDN'T ACCEPT THE DATE.

SOMETIMES THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DOES NOT TURN ON WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT PERSON SEATED IN THE SEAT. ALSO HAS AN OIL LEAK AT THE DIFFERENTIAL.

AS I WAS THEDRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. THE SERVICE AIRBAG MESSAGE CAME UP AND I NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF LIGHT WOULD ALTERNATE FROM ON/OFF. THE PASSENGER WAS JUST SITTING THERE IN THE SEAT PROPERLY. AFTER I STOPPED ANOTHER PASSENGER GOT IN AND STILL STAYED ILLUMINATED.

MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR IS FAULTY. IT THEN SHUTS DOWN THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM. ONCE THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SENSOR FAILS, IT STORES A CODE IN THE SRS MODULE AND LIGHTS UP THE 'SERVICE AIR BAG' LIGHT. THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BECOMES DISABLED ONCE THIS LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED. THIS CAN POSE AN INCREASED RISK OF INJURY TO THE PASSENGER IN AN ACCIDENT. THE SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED IN OTHER CARS WITH THE AIRBAG SENSOR BRAND/TYPE - INCLUDING THE CADILLAC CTS- THESE WERE RECALLED. WHY HAS THE SATURN NOT BEEN RECALLED IF IT IS THE SAME PART? PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE BEFORE PEOPLE GET HURT OR KILLED!

MY WIFE'S 2007 SATURN SKY PASSENGER SERVICE AIR BAG INDICATOR AND AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON AND STAYS ON. I WAS TOLD UNLESS THIS IS FIXED (FOR A COST OF ABOUT $900.00) THE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. THE GM DEALER THAT LOOKED AT THE SKY SAID "PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR IS OUT AGAIN." NOT GOOD THAT GM DOES NOT CARE IF YOUNG KIDS THAT RIDE WITH THEIR GRAND MOTHER GETS FATALLY INJURED IN A CAR ACCIDENT. (NO AIR BAG WILL DEPLOY). MAYBE A GM EXECUTIVE WOULD CARE MORE IF ONE OF THEIR KIDS OR GRAND KIDS WOULD BE RIDING IN A CAR THAT HAS A FAULTY AIR BAG ISSUE. THIS ISSUE IS HAPPENING ON MOST OF THE SATURN SKY VEHICLES. JUST GIVE A RECALL - DO THE RIGHT THING!

TAKATA RECALL.THE AIR BAG SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON. MY VEHICLE HAS THAT DEVICE AND IT IS NOT INCLUDED ON THE RECALL. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF AND WHEN THIS WILL BE ADDED TO THE RECALL. IF NOT I NEED TO KNOW THE REASON WHY NOT FOR MY LAWYER. I UNDERSTAND ITS GOING TO COST ME $1000.00 TO REPLACE THEIR DEFECTIVE DEVICE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW. THANK YOU.

MY CAR WAS INVOLVED WITH THE RECALL FOR THE IGNITION. I DID HAVE THIS FIXED BY A DEALER AS DIRECTED. SOON AFTER THIS WAS FIXED MY CAR WOULD RANDOMLY NOT START. MY CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO CHARGED ME HUNDREDS TO TROUBLE SHOOT THIS ISSUE WITH NO RESOLVE. AFTER THIS HAPPENED AGAIN I BROUGHT IT TO ANOTHER SHOP WHO ALSO CHARGED ME HUNDREDS AND COULD NOT FIND THE ISSUE EITHER. I HEARD YOU WERE LOOKING INTO THIS PROBLEM WITH THE RECALL FIX AND WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME AS WELL.

SERVICE AIRBAG MESSAGE DISPLAYS ON THE DIC, AND CONFIRMATION FROM ONSTAR THAT CODE B0081 IS PRESENT, MEANING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY BECAUSE THE SEAT SENSOR HAS MALFUNCTIONED. THIS IS A KNOWN AND COMMON ISSUE WITH SATURN SKYS, AND MY VEHICLE HAS ONLY 9023 MILES - ALMOST ALL DRIVEN WITH NO PASSENGER THE COST TO FIX THIS ISSUE AS SHOWN FROM OTHERS WHO'VE HAD THIS PROBLEM IS OVER $1000.
