SATURN Complaints

A LOWES BOX TRUCK HIT MY PASSENGER SIDE AND TOOK OUT THE MIRROR AND FRONT PANELS. I'M GETTING REALLY DISGUSTED WITH GM. THEY OWE ME 696.00 FOR MY IGNITION SWITCH I HAD TO REPLACE LONG BEFORE THEY DECIDED TO RECALL ANYTHING. I JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK. THANK YOU. *TR

THE RIGHT FRONT TURN SIGNAL DOES NOT LIGHT OR BLINK WHEN THE LEVER IS PRESSED DOWN. THE REAR RIGHT SIGNAL WORKS AS DO THE FRONT AND REAR TURN SIGNALS. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. MY DEALER SAYS WE WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE COMMAND MODULE AT A COST OF @ $1400. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN AURA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG OFF WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MODE DUAL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. UPDATED 12/9/14*CN UPDATED 5/11/2015 *JS

IGNITION TUMBLER DOES NOT WORK APPROPRIATELY AND KEY IS EASILY REMOVED WHEN CAR IS ON AND WHEN CAR IS TURNED OFF IT HAS BEEN VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN TO THE ON POSITION TO START THE CAR. LAST WEEK AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF, THE IGNITION TUMBLER FAILED TO OPERATE IN THE PROPER MANNER WHEN ATTEMPTING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN STUCK IN THE VEHICLE MANY TIMES FIDDLING WITH THE KEY TO,TRY TO START THE VEHICLE. THIS LACK OF FUNCTION CAUSED AN ENTIRE SATURDAY AFTERNOON, A TOW TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR, INCONVENIENCED ME FOR THREE DAYS WITH NO VEHICLE AND A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT IT WASN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE OF THE YEAR, WHEN THIS CLEARLY HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH SATURN VUES FOR THE PRECEDING YEARS. *TR

PASSENGER AIR BAG TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING. THE DASH LIGHT COMES ON INDICATING THE AIR BAG IS OFF. HAPPENED MOST TIMES WE DROVE THE CAR AND AT ANY SPEED. OCCASIONALLY THE SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WOULD ALSO COME ON INDICATING BOTH FRONT AIR BAGS WEREN'T WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO OUR DEALER AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND NEED TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR FOR APPROXIMATELY $1200. ALSO WAS TOLD THERE IS NO SAFETY RECALL FOR THIS WHICH I FIND IS INCREDIBLE. WE HAD THE WORK DONE AND HOPE GM WILL PERFORM A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED. *TR

TIMING CHAIN BREAK, CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. VEHICLE MANUFACTURED 09/01. NOT NOTIFIED ABOUT ANY POSSIBLE RECALL. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AFTER SETTING THE CRUISE CONTROL IT WILL JUST CUT OFF BY ITSELF. THEN WILL NOT RESET WHEN YOU TRY TO SET IT AGAIN UNTIL THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED.

THE MILEAGE IS ESTIMATED. *TR
