  • 2005 SATURN ION
    - TURTLE LAKE, WI

    POWER STEERING SYSTEM GOES ON AND OFF. HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS AND IN TURNS. MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS HAVE NEARLY OCCURRED BECAUSE OF THIS. THERE HAS BEEN AN EXTENDED WARRANTY UP TO 100,000 MILES BUT IF YOU'RE CAR IS PAST IT GM REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF A BAD DESIGN! NOT RIGHT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY TO BE SAFE BECAUSE OF A FAULTY DESIGN. *TT

    - SOUTH BEND, IN

    WHILST DRIVING, MY CAR WOULD ACCELERATE ON IT'S OWN GOING ALMOST 45-50MPH. PRESSING THE BRAKES WOULD BARELY DO ANYTHING. IT WON'T START WHEN IT THINKS IT'S TOO COLD OUTSIDE, I'VE HAD THE BATTERY TESTED MULTIPLE TIMES AND IT IS FINE. ALSO, WHEN TRYING TO STOP THE CAR AND TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION IT RESISTS A LOT. HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES A WEEK. *TT

  • 2004 SATURN ION
    - MECHANICSBURG, PA

    POWER STEERING FAILURE OCCURRED ON 1/25/12. I FELT STEERING BECOME DIFFICULT AND SAW MESSAGE ON INSTRUMENT PANEL. IT IS INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE VEHICLE WITHOUT POWER STEERING. AFRAID OF WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THIS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING 65MPH ON HIGHWAY. BECAUSE OF MY MILEAGE, SATURN WILL NOT COVER THE COSTS UNDER THE "EXTENDED WARRANTY". A RECALL SHOULD OCCUR IN ORDER TO SAVE LIVES. *TR
