SATURN Complaints

THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE, 2006 SATURN VUE FOR 2014 AND I WAS TOLD THIS CAN NO LONGER BE FIXED. IT IS A RECAL NUMBER 14506 AND I NEED TO KNOW WHERE I CAN GET THIS REPAIRED. I CAN REMOVE MY KEY WHILE THE IGNITION IS STILL RUNNING.

WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET GOING UP HILL, THE CAR WAS HAVING A PROBLEM ACCELERATING UP HILL. WHEN GOING DOWNHILL, THE CAR WOULD STOP, AND THE BRAKES WOULD LOCK UP. HAVE TO USE ACCELERATION WHEN GOING DOWNHILL IN ORDER FOR IT TO MOVE. FINALLY WHEN I MADE IT HOME AND PARKED THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE (LIKE SOMETHING WAS SCRAPING AGAINST SOMETHING). AND THEN THE SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I GOT OUT THE CAR, IT SMELLED LIKE BURNT METAL. WHEN I GOOGLED THIS PROBLEM, IT APPEARS THAT A LOT OF SATURN VUE USERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUES AND IT APPEARS AS IF THE DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT SURE HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVEN'T RECEIVED NOTIFICATION TO REPLACE MY TAKATA AIRBAGS BUT ALL OTHER MAKES AND MODELS OF CARS AND TRUCKS HAVE RECEIVED THEIR RECALLS. I WANT MY TAKATA AIRBAGS REPLACED.

GEAR SHIFT CABLE WAS RECALLED A FEW TEARS BACK AND I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP TO HAVE IT FIXED. IN AUGUST 2018 IT BROKE AGAIN. I WAS LEAVING WORK AND PUTTING MY CAT IN REVERSE AND THE CABLE BROKE AND WAS STUCK IN REVERSE, I PAID FOR IT TO BE FIXED. IN LESS THAN A YEAR (APRIL 2019) IT HAS BROKEN AGAIN, DOING THE SAME THING, MOVING MY CAT FROM A PARKING SPOT AND THE CABLE BROKE AND ONCE AGAIN STUCK IN REVERSE.I CAN'T GET ANY INFORMATION UN REGARDS TO WHY IT KEEP HAPPENING. ANY INFORMATION WOULD BE GREAT. ...

THE KEY WILL NOT RELEASE FROM THE IGNITION WHEN THE SHIFTER IS PUT IN PARK. THE KEY STUCK IN THE KEY LOCK CYLINDER AND WOULD NOT TURN. ALL LIGHTS STAY ONE IN THE VEHICLE

THERE WAS A RECALL BACK IN OCTOBER 20TH, 2014 REGARDING AN ISSUE WITH THE IGNITION. WHERE YOU CAN PULL THE KEY OUT WHILE ITS RUNNING. I'VE NEVER GOTTEN A CALL FROM NHTSA REGARDING THE ISSUE. MAY I HAVE IT DONE FREE OF CHARGE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY

RECALLS NOT SHOWN FOR VEHICLE AT HTTPS://WWW.NHTSA.GOV RECALLS NOT SHOWN FOR VEHICLE AT HTTPS://MY.GM.COM/RECALLS I WANT TO KNOW WHY AUTO ZONE IS SHOWING 19 RECALLS (ATTACHED) ON THIS VEHICLE YET THE DEALER HAS NO RECORD OF THESE RECALLS, NOR DOES THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY AND I ALSO WANT TO KNOW WHY I CAN'T FIND A SOURCE THAT SHOWS THE DATE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED AND THE DATE THE RECALL WAS COMPLETED BY VIN? THIS INFORMATION SHOULD AUTOMATICALLY APPEAR WITH STATE VEHICLE INSPECTIONS.

GM AFTER BANKRUPTCY: GM'S TRANSAXLE (CVT M75) IN THIS VEHICLE IS KNOWN BY ALL OWNERS TO FAIL. THIS UNIT FAILED TO PROVIDE FORWARD MOMENTUM AND LEFT THE VEHICLE STRANDED HIGH HEAVY TRAFFIC IN PORTLAND, OR YEAR APRIL 2019. MULTIPLE CALLS TO GM FOUND THAT SERVICE PROVIDERS COULDNT EVEN ID THE PROPER TRANS AXLE THAT GOES IN THIS VEHICLE SO WE COULD GET A REPLACEMENT. WE BELIEVE GM IS IN PROCESS OF A NEW "CLASS ACTION SUITE" TO REPAIR DAMAGES TO THE SECOND OWNERS. IS, THIS TRUE - LET US KNOW IF YOU KNOW - PLEASE THX. THIS TRANS AXLE WAS BUILT DAMAGED.

WHILE DRIVING, IDLING, AND PARKED MY ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL ENGAGES AND THE CAR JERKS/HESITATES. IT ACTS LIKE IT'S SLIPPING YET THE WEATHER IS WARM AND SUNNY. THE LIGHT WILL COME ON SAYING 'SERVICE TRACTION' AND ESC OFF AND SERVICE ESC. I'VE TAKEN IT TO MANY MECHANICS BUT THEY DON NOT KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2013 AND IT'S BEEN DOING IT ON AND OFF EVER SINCE.

WHEN DRIVING, THE CAR GETS STUCK AROUND 35 MPH. IT'S LIKE THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T GO TO THE NEXT GEAR. IT REVS LIKE IT WANTS TO AND EVEN STARTS BUCKING. SORRY I DON'T KNOW THE TECHNICAL TERMS FOR THIS PROBLEM. IT HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES NOW WITH NO WARNING. ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED ONCE. THE DATE I ENTERED BELOW IS TODAY'S DATE. IT'S THE MOST RECENT THAT IT'S HAPPENED.
