2007 SATURN VUE Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER INSERTING THE KEY INTO THE IGNITION SWITCH THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE IGNITION SWITCH TO START THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE KEY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE KEY WAS REPLACED BUT THE FAILURE REOCCURRED. THE CONTACT ALSO INDICATED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED OFF AND ON. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

SHORTLY AFTER A COMPLETE DEALER SERVICE I NOTICED THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT A SENSOR WAS BAD ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THERE WAS POSSIBILITY THAT THE AIRBAG MIGHT NOT DEPLOY DUE TO THE LIGHT BEING ILLUMINATED. I TOLD THE DEALER THAT THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY THEY DECLINED AND TOLD ME THAT "THINGS SOMETIMES WEAR OUT" I CONTACTED GM REGIONAL THEY DECLINED TO FIX THIS UNDER WARRANTY. SO I RELUCTANTLY PAID FOR THE REPAIR TOTALING $968.52. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS WRONG AND A FAILURE OF A CRITICAL SAFETY ISSUE. *JS

WHEN PUTTING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, THE KEY IS GETTING STUCK AND WILL NOT TURN TO START THE CAR. I HAVE TO WIGGLE THE KEY MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL FINALLY IT MAKES AN AUDIBLE CLICK AND I AM ABLE TO START THE CAR. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME I ATTEMPT TO START THE CAR BUT THREE QUARTERS OF THE TIME I DEAL WITH THIS PROBLEM. SOME TIMES IT ONLY TAKES A FEW TURNS, OTHER TIMES I REPEATEDLY REMOVE THE KEY AND PLACE IT BACK IN THE IGNITION UNTIL IT IS ABLE TO ROTATE AND START THE CAR. *JS

WHEN I WAS DRIVING I ACCIDENTALLY PULLED MY KEY FROM THE IGNITION BUT THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING AND I WAS STILL DRIVING...I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE KEY BACK IN THE IGNITION. WHEN I FINALLY CAME TO A STOP AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK...I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THIS WAS A ONE OFF SO I TRIED TO PULL THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION WHILE THE CAR WAS RUNNING AND IT CAME RIGHT OUT. *TR

MY DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT GOES ON PERIODICALLY. RANDOM AT FIRST, NOW ALMOST EVERY TIME I'M IN THE CAR. *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. MECHANIC ADVISED I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY. PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON. MY HYBRID SYSTEM IS NOT KICKING IN. I RESEARCHED ONLINE AND READ RECALLS ON THIS CAR FOR THIS YEAR WITH THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT BEING RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE VEHICLES DEFECTED. PLEASE HELP ME GET THIS FIXED. ITS A DOCUMENTED PROBLEM AND MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE INCLUDED ON THE RECALL LIST TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE KEY WAS ABLE TO BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION WHILE THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

FIRST NOTICED MY KEY WOULD NOT FIT INTO IGNITION AND AFTER MANY TRIES THE ALARM STARTED BEEPING AND I WAS THEN ABLE TO INSERT THE KEY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE. THE BIGGEST WORRY HAS BEEN THAT ON ONE OCCASION I HAD TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, TOOK THE KEY OUT, STEPPED OUT OF THE VEHICLE READY TO WALK AWAY AND REALIZED THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS PERIODICALLY DON'T COME ON AND THE RADIO, ALTHOUGH I CAN HEAR IT, DOES NOT DISPLAY THE INFORMATION. *TT
