SATURN Complaints

FRONT DRIVER'S SEATBELT IS DIFFICULT TO SNAP IN. POWER STEERING WORKS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AND BRAKING

THE ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING ASSIST WILL INTERMITTENTLY QUIT WORKING WITHOUT WARNING. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE TURNING IT HAS STOPPED WORKING CAUSING THE DRIVER TO VEER INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT STEER THE CAR BACK INTO THEIR LANE. EVEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT NORMAL SPEEDS THE STEERING HAS JUST WUIT CAUSING THE DRIVER TO STOP AND TURN THE CAR OFF TO RESET THE ELECTRONICS. THIS CONDITION IS THE SAME ISSUE THEY HAD ON PREVIOUS YEARS OF THE SAME VEHICLE SO THEY OBVIOUSLY DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM, BUT JUST PUT A BAND AIDE ON THE ISSUE TO GET IT TO PASS INSPECTION. THIS CAR IS A DEATH TRAP UNLESS YOU ARE USED TO DRIVING A TANK WITHOUT POWER STEERING!
