2006 SATURN VUE Complaints

MY CARS HUBCAPS HAVE FELL OFF SEVERAL TIMES AND J CAN'T FIND A SIZE THAT FITS 2 OF THEM SO I DON'T HAVE ANY. MY IGNITION SWITCH GETS STUCK WHILE PARKED AND I'VE BEEN LOCKED OUT IF MY CAR SEVERAL TIMES. THERE ARE TIMES WHERE IT WON'T TURN AT ALL AND I HAVE TO LOCK THE STEERING WHEEL AND TRY TO JIGGY THE KEY FOREVER. THE KEY DOESN'T TURN ALL THE WAY TO THE OFF SWITCH AND THE KEY CAN BE REMOVED WHILE DRIVING. NOW MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WON'T UP. I USE THE KEY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR AND THE THING POPS UP BUT THE DOOR WON'T OPEN AND SINCE I ONLY HAVE ONE DOOR WITH A KEY HOLE ALL THE OTHER DOORS STAY LOCKED AS WELL. SO I'VE SPENT HUNDREDS ON LOCKSMITHS OR I HAVE TO KEEP PULLING THE HANDLE OR BANGING ON THE DOOR OR MY HUSBAND PUSHES THE DOOR AN SHAKES THE ENTIRE CAR. THIS IS EMBARRASSING AND FRUSTRATING AS WELL AS DANGEROUS SINCE J CAN'T LOCK MY DOORS. SOMETIMES WHEN I LEAVE THE DOORS UNLOCKED THEY LOCK ON THEIR OWN AFTER I WALK AWAY. I HAVE TO CRAWL THROUGH THE PASSENGERS SIDE DOOR TO GET IN WHEN THE DRIVERS DOOR WON'T OPEN. THIS CAR HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN!

ALL OF 2108 THE IGNITION IS VERY HARD TO START WHEN YOU PUT THE KEY IN VERY HARD TO TURN AND WHEN YOU GET IT STARTED IT SOMETIMES SHUTS OFF WHILE GOING TO DRIVE.

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD HAS COME ON WHEN THE CAR IS BOTH IN MOTION. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS REALLY HOT, BUT THEN IT CAME ON WHEN IT WAS ABOUT 75 DEGREES OUTSIDE. IT SOMETIMES WOULD STAY ON FOR 50 OR MORE MILES AND OTHER TIMES IT WOULD STAY ON FOR ONLY A MILE OR TWO. THOSE SHORT TIMES IT WOULD GO OFF FOR MAYBE A MILE OR SOMETIMES 3-4 MILES THEN COME BACK ON. WHEN THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR WOULD SMELL FAINTLY LIKE SOMETHING WAS HOT OR MAYBE LIKE GUN POWDER. IT HASN'T COME ON FOR A MONTH NOW. SOMETIMES I THOUGHT IT WAS WHEN I HIT A BUMP THAT IT WOULD COME ON OR GO OFF. BUT IT DID IT WHEN THE ROAD WAS NOT BUMPY. IT DID IT LAST SUMMER AND THIS SUMMER. IT WOULD SOMETIMES BE ON WHEN I SHUT THE IGNITION OFF, BUT NOT ALWAYS. SOMETIMES IT WOULD BE ON WHEN I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN, BUT NOT ALWAYS. IT DID IT BOTH IN TOWN AND WHEN HIGHWAY DRIVING.
