MY CAR WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY ON AN INCLINE, EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS SET. MY CAR ROLLED DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AND OFF AN EMBANKMENT. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS STILL UP WHEN IT STOPPED. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS.

TEMPERATURE ON AC WILL GO TO FULL HOT WHEN THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL IS TURNED ONE CLICK OFF OF COLD. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS AN UPDATE PIC (PIC4995A) RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM. DOES THIS MEAN A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED OR THAT THIS PART WOULD BE RELPACED FREE OF CHARGE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR HANDLE FRACTURED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE PREVIOUSLY OCCURRED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOUISVILLE HAWKEYE CHEVROLET WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR HANDLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STARTED AN INVESTIGATION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 28,000.

RECEIVED MULTIPLE RECALL NOTICE. CONTACTED THE 800 NO. THEY GAVE ME LOCAL GM DEALER WHO TOLD ME THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS RECALL!? THE RECALL REFERENCE NO IS 17036. WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?

THIS IS AN OPEN RECALL: "IF AN ACTIVE FAULT EXISTS IN THE PPS SYSTEM AND A CRASH OCCURS, THE SDM WILL NOT DEPLOY THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG. IF AN ADULT IS OCCUPYING THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE SUPPRESSION OF THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY TO THE PASSENGER." THIS IS STILL NOT ADDRESSED BY GM! WHY ARE THEY NOT BEING FORCED TO CORRECT THIS SITUATION? MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: N172080280

I HAVE RECEIVED THE SECOND LETTER IN REGARDS TO THE 17036 RECALL ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT NOT WORKING. ACCORDING TO THE WEBSITE AND THE DEALER A FIX ISN'T AVAILABLE, BUT ACCORDING TO THE LETTER AND CUSTOMER SERVICE AT SATURN A TEMPORARY FIX IS. I HAVE BEEN GETTING THE RUN AROUND WITH SATURN THEY CALL THE DEALERSHIP AND SET ME UP WITH AN APPOINTMENT AND WHEN I WENT THERE THE DEALER HAD NO AVAILABLE INFORMATION FOR THIS RECALL. CALLED SATURN AGAIN TODAY AND GOT THE SAME STORY SHE CALLED THE DEALER AND SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME RIGHT BACK AFTER THEY ORDER THE PART. THE DEALER DID CALL ME RIGHT BACK BUT SAID THE PART WASN'T AVAILABLE YET FOR THEM TO ORDER AND TO WAIT UNTIL I GET THE FINAL NOTICE. I AM TIRED OF SATURN GIVING ME THE WRONG INFORMATION AND BEING SENT ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE. MY LIGHT ISN'T WORKING AT THIS TIME SO I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IMPACT THAT HAS ON THE AIRBAG WHETHER IT WOULD DEPLOY OR NOT IF I NEEDED IT. I HOPE WE NEVER HAVE TO FIND THIS OUT THE HARD WAY.
