I WAS DRIVING THIS EVENING ON A CITY STREET WHEN MY SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. MY PASSENGER AMD DRIVER AIRBAGS HOWEVER DID NOT. WHEN MY SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IT STARTLED ME AND I HIT A CURB MESSING UP MY ALIGNMENT. THIS WAS INCREDIBLY UNEXPECTED AND COULD'VE BEEN A LOT WORSE.

AIR BAG LIGHT WILL BE ON, OR FLASH PERIODICALLY WHEN ALREADY FASTENED. HAD AN ELECTRICAL FIRE IN THE LEFT SIDE OF STEERING COLUMN 7/27/18. CRUISE GOES IN AND OUT. DIM/BRIGHT LIGHT COMES ON WHEN USING TURN SIGNAL. IGNITION SWITCH LOCKS UP FROM TIME TO TIME WHERE KEY CAN'T BE REMOVED AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP OR YOU CAN REMOVE KEY BUT SWITCH IS STILL ENGAGED. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION WHEN MOST INCIDENTS OCCURRED AND LOCKUPS OCCUR DEPENDING ON WHAT POSITION THE STEERING WHEEL IS IN (ADJUSTABLE). THE ELECTRICAL FIRE HAPPENED JUST AS I EXITED THE HIGHWAY FROM A 30 MINUTE TRIP AFTER RELEASING THE CRUISE CONTROL BUTTON. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY 4 BLOCKS FROM HOME. CFD WAS CALLED AND THEY DISMANTLED THE COLUMN, EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. I WAS BLESSED. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE!

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON AND GOING OFF FOR YEARS... I BELIEVE IT STARTED IN 2010 I CALLED THE DEALER AND ALSO CONTRACTED GM AND NO RECALLS WERE REPORTED. I THEN CHECK ON IT WITH NHTSA NO RECALLS. IT 1ST. STARTED ON RIGHT PASSENGERS SIDE IT WOULD WARN IT WAS NOT ON EVER WHEN SOMEONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND WOULD COME ON AND GO OFF. NOW THE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. I SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE REPORTING ON IT. I DO BELIEVE THAT THE AIR BAG OR AIR BAGS WILL NOT COME ON IF I HAVE AN ACCIDENT. NOT A SAFE FEELING FOR MY WIFE AND I IF WE WOULD BE IN A BAD ACCIDENT. HAS ANYONE REALLY LOOKED INTO THE MANY COMPLAINTS? ON

MORE THEN 5 TIMES THE SUV HAS NOT STARTED, AND WE HAD TO REPLACE THE IGNITION SWITCH BECAUSE THE KEY WOULD NOT EVEN TURN IN IT. I BELIEVE WE HAVE TANAKA AIRBAGS.

Mileage: 85,000

THERE IS A RECALL ON SIMILAR MODELS FOR THE SAME ISSUE, BUT NOT MINE. MY KEY COMES OUT OF THE IGNITION WHILE DRIVING AND CONTINUES TO RUN. THIS ALSO OCCURS WHILE IN PARK. THIS COULD CAUSE AIRBAGS TO NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT AS WELL AS IT HAS DRAINED MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS BECAUSE IF IT IS NOT FULLY DISENGAGED I CAN STILL REMOVE THE KEY IN ACC MODE AND DRIVE MODE. ALSO, I HAVE TO TUG ON THE GEAR SHIFT IN ORDER TO GET THE KEY INTO THE PROPER POSITION TO REMOVE IT PROPERLY. NOW'I CANNOT EVEN TURN MY KEY, AS THE IGNITION IS SEIZING. IT TAKES ME NO LESS THAN 10 MINUTES TO GET IT TO CLICK AND TURN ON. I WAS ADVISED MY MODEL IS NOT IN THE RECALL THOUGH THE SAME AND SAME MAKES ARE. I REALLY FEEL THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE. PLEASE ADVISE! THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS A RECALL, BUT WHEN I WENT TO MY APPOINTMENT, THEY ADVISED IT IS NOT PART OF THE CURRENT RECALL.

Mileage: 80,000

AND WILL STAY ON FOR HOURS/DAYS, THE LENGTH OF TIME THAT THE LIGHT IS ON VARIES WITH EACH TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATES. IT LIGHT TURNS ON ANYWHERE FROM 4-10 TIMES PER WEEK. SHOULDN'T BE RESPONSIBLE TO FIX AN APPARENT DEFECT IN THE MANUFACTURING OF MY VEHICLE.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, A GRINDING TYPE NOISE WAS PRESENT COMING FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL AND THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE WOULD VIBRATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL BEARING WAS FAULTY. THE BEARING WAS REPLACED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED.

WHILE DRIVING I NOTICED THE "AIR BAG READINESS" LIGHT COME ON. IT STAYED ON FOR ABOUT 10-15 MINUTES UNTIL I REACHED MY DESTINATION AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND THE LIGHT ONLY STAYED ON FOR A SHORT TIME, THEN WENT OFF. LATER THAT DAY WHEN DRIVING THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND STAYED ON AGAIN UNTIL I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. IT DID THIS SEVERAL TIMES. I CHECKED THE OWNERS MANUAL AND IT SAID TO TAKE IT IN FOR DIAGNOSTICS TO BE RUN. IT ALSO SAID THAT THE AIR BAG COULD DEPLOY UNEXPECTEDLY, OR NOT DEPLOY AT ALL IF IN AN ACCIDENT. I MADE AND APPOINTMENT ON 07/24/2015 AND TOOK IT TO A DEALER. AFTER RUNNING THE COMPUTER CHECK ON IT, THE TECHNICIAN SAID THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND IT WAS NOT COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE PARTS WOULD HAVE TO BE ORDERED AND WOULD TAKE SEVERAL HOURS TO INSTALL. THE COST WOULD BE APPROXIMATELY $1,200 OR MORE FOR PARTS AND LABOR. I HAD TO TAKE OFF WORK TWICE TO TAKE IN FOR SERVICE, AND LOST ABOUT 8 HOURS OF WORK TIME DUE TO THIS INCIDENT. ALSO, THE TURN SIGNAL HAD TO BE REPLACED; IT FAILED TO TURN OFF AFTER MAKING A TURN, MOSTLY TO THE LEFT, BUT SOMETIMES TURNING TO THE RIGHT ALSO. I WAS TOLD THAT NEITHER OF THESE SHOULD HAVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ON MY CAR WITH THE MILEAGE IT HAS.

Mileage: 53,290

I STARTED MY CAR AND THE DRIVE SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON NO BLINKING JUST ON. MY CAR HAD BEEN PARKED WHILE I WAS AT WORK. I WENT HOME FOR LUNCH I FIGURED IT WAS JUST A GLITCH WOULD GO OUT WENT BACK TO WORK PARKED IT AGAIN THEN WHEN I LEFT TO GO HOME IT WAS ON AGAIN. IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS I HAVE HAD MY KEYS GET STUCK IN THE IGNITION SWITCH AND HAD TO WIGGLE THE STEERING WHEEL TO.GET THEM OUT. MY RADIO SCREEN WILL GO ALL CRAZY FUNNY NUMBERS AND I HAVE HAD WIND NOISE WITH BOTH OF MY FRONT DOORS SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE WORKED ON THE IGNITION SWITCH WHEN IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY BUT IT DIDN'T HELP. NOW WITH THE AIRBAG I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THE CAR I PAID FOR AND TO LET MY CHILD RIDE IN IT AND IT'S MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION. IT LOOKS LIKE EVERY OTHER SATURN IS GETTING RECALLED BUT THIS ONE WE NEED HELP BEFORE WE GET HURT. I WAS NOT AWARE OF THESE PROBLEMS WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BUT NOW SADDLED WITH IT HOPING FOR SOMEONE TO MAKE SURE WE ARE SAFE LIKE OTHER CAR OWNERS.

AIR BAB LIGHT ALWAYS ON PASSENGER SIDE; DEALER TOLD US IT IS NOT WORKING WHEN LIT; COST TO REPAIR ABOUT 900 DOLLARS TO REPLACE ENTIRE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY. FEEL GM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR FAULTY AIR BAG; HONDA IS FINALLY OWNING UP TO THEIR AIR BAG ISSUES.

Mileage: 140,000

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON PERIODICALLY. WENT TO A DEALERSHIP BACK WHEN IT FIRST STARTED HAPPENING. WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST ABOUT $300.00 TO CHECK IT OUT. THEY WOULD NOT TELL ME IF OTHER CUSTOMERS HAD BROUGHT IN SATURNS FOR THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD ISSUE FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY TO GET IT CORRECTED. OBVIOUSLY, THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN PROBLEM FOR SOME TIME WITH THESE VEHICLES. WHEN WILL IT BE ADDRESSED?

Mileage: 40,000

I OWN A 2007 SATURN VUE WHICH WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN MAY 2007. THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATES FOR WEEKS BEFORE IT WILL TURN OFF. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS SO THEY SAY. RIGHT AFTER I BRING THE VEHICLE HOME THE PROBLEM BEGINS AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY BUT THE WARRANTY HAS SINCE EXPIRED AND I DON'T THINK I SHOULD BE THE ONE TO PAY FOR A REPAIR WHEN IT IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN READING THE SAME PROBLEM FROM QUITE A FEW OWNERS. WHY DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR DIE FOR THAT MATTER BEFORE THE MANUFACTURE WILL DO SOMETHING TO PREVENT POSSIBLE INJURY? THE PART PROBABLY DOESN'T COST THAT MUCH FOR THE MANUFACTURE TO FIX BUT THEY WOULD RATHER RISK GETTING SUED FOR MILLIONS THAN FIX A $$ PROBLEM. OH THE SHAME!

Mileage: 55,000

MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD. IT HAS CONTINUED TO DO SO FOR THIS PAST YEAR. NOW THE RECALL IS TELLING US THAT THIS COULD BE A BIG PROBLEM

Mileage: 49,000

DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING ON AND OFF FOR A FEW MONTHS (IF ON, IT WOULD STAY ON THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE TRIP BUT WOULDN'T NECESSARILY COME ON THE NEXT TIME THE CAR IS STARTED). MORE RECENTLY, IT HAS BEEN COMING ON AND STAYING DURING EVERY TRIP. THIS IS CONCERNING BECAUSE IT IS UNCLEAR WHETHER THIS IS A GLITCH IN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM (COMING ON AND OFF WOULD INDICATE THAT IT IS) OR IF THE AIR BAGS AREN'T WORKING PROPERLY.

IGNITION LOCKED COULD TURN KEY OR PULL OUT AND/OR START VEHICLE. HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES THROUGH THE YEARS. THE MOST ONE I AM CONCERNED WITH IS THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON & OFF, MOSTLY STAYS ON. THIS STARTED SOMETIME AROUND AUGUST, 2014. I HAVE TAKE A PICTURE OF IT ON MY PHONE & WILL FORWARD WITH ANOTHER E-MAIL. I'VE CHECKED FOR RECALLS ON THE VIN# & HAVE NONE. I KNOW THERE SHOULD AT LEAST BE A RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS, I'VE HEARD. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF THIS SOON AS I TRAVEL TO WORK EVERYDAY & SOMETIMES TAKE MY GRANDCHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME & I AM CONCERN SOMETHING HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING & THEY ARE WITH ME. YOU CAN SEND ANY INFO TO MY E-MAIL ADDRESS: [XXX] OR PH# [XXX]; AND/OR BY MAIL. THANK YOU.

2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONSUMERS WIFE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. *TA HIS WIFE WAS INJURED AND THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE. *JB

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND SMOKE BEGAN COMING FROM AROUND THE STEERING WHEEL OF MY CAR. A SYMBOL OF A PERSON HOLDING A AIRBAG APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD, I THEN FELT THAT THE AIRBAG WAS GOING TO DEPLOY. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OUT OF TRAFFIC INTO A AUTO ZONE. AWORKER SEEN THE SMOKE, AND FELT MY CAR WAS ON FIRE. I EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT THE SMOKE IS COMING FROM AROUND THE STEERING WHEEL. HE SAID "GET OUT OF YOUR CAR, IT'S DANGEROUS! THE AIRBAG LIGHTS FOR BOTH DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE COME ON AND OFF. MY SATURN IS PAID FOR, AND I'M UNEMPLOYED RIGHT NOW AND CAN NOT AFFORD TO INVEST IN A NEW VEHICLE. WHAT CAN BE DONE FOR THE SAFETY OF THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE TRUSTED THE INDUSTRY? *TR

Mileage: 93,000

THE AIRBAG LIGHT BEGAN COMING ON AT RANDOM TIMES AND NOW REMAINS ON. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ENTIRE PASSENGER SEAT MODULE HAD TO BE REPLACED AT THE COST OF APPROX. $1,000.00. WITH THIS CURRENT MALFUNCTION, IF I WERE TO BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WITH A PASSENGER, THE PASSENGER'S AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED/FIXED BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

Mileage: 75,000

AIRBAG WARRING LIGHT ON DASH CAME ON AND THEN WENT OFF. OVER A PERIOD OF SEVERAL MONTHS THE LIGHT WOULD COME ON MORE OFTEN. NOW THE LIGHT IS ON ALMOST ALL OF THE TIME. I BELIEVE IF A CRASH OCCURS, THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT DEPLOY AND INJURY OR DEATH MAY OCCUR. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. *TR

AIR BAG LITES (MAIN AND PASSENGER SEAT) GO ON AND OFF SPORADICALLY AND FOR NO REASON, ONE SOMETIMES BOTH. HITTING A BUMP SOMETIMES CHANGED THERE SETTING, EITHER ON OR OFF. CURRENTLY THEY ARE MOSTLY OFF. GM DEALERS AND INDEPENDENT SHOPS WANT $110 TO $200 TO ANALYZE AND $700 TO $1200 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. ALSO THE DAYLITE RUNNING LITE INDICATOR NO LONGER WORKS, THE SEAT BELT ALARM (NOT FASTENED) DOESN'T ALWAYS SOUND AND THEN COMES ON 3 OR 4 MINUTES LATER, AND THE HEATER DOESN'T ALWAYS "HEAT". *TR

MY AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON NUMEROUS TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR WHEN MY GAS GOES DOWN BELOW A HALF TANK. STEERING BECOMES A BIT MORE STIFF WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. IT DOES EVENTUALLY GO OUT. WHEN I AM IN AND OUT OF THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY THE LIGHT WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN COME ON. MY BRAKES ACT STRANGELY WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. I HAVE HAD MY BRAKES DONE SO I KNOW THEY ARE OKAY. IT WORRIES ME THAT THE AIRBAG JUST RANDOMLY COMES ON. *TR

Mileage: 80,448

THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL JUST COME ON AT ANY GIVEN TIME. IT WORRIES ME THAT THEY MIGHT NOT DEPLOY WHEN I NEED IT OR THEY DEPLOY AS I'M DRIVING-A SERIOUS HAZARD. 09/09/2014 ONSTAR VEHICLE DIAGNOSTICS ADVISED ME ABOUT A DIAGNOSTIC ALERT REQUIRING IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND TO CALL MY DEALERSHIP. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD NO RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE AND THEY WOULD DO A DIAGNOSTICS TEST TO CHECK OUT PROBLEM BUT WOULD COST ME OVER $100.00. I THEN CALLED GM AND WAS TOLD PRETTY MUCH THE SAME BUT WAS GIVEN SERVICE REQUEST NUMBER AND I WOULD GET A CALL WITH IN 48 HOURS. I DID GET THE RETURN CALL AND SAME RESPONSE. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD HAVE TESTED FOR FREE TO BE SURE THIS WILL NOT BECOME A RECALLED ITEM AFTER DRIVERS BECOME CRITICALLY HURT OR KILLER DUE TO BAD PARTS!!! LAW REQUIRES SEAT BELTS AND AIRBAGS FOR OUR SAFETY AND MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE INVESTIGATING ALL SAFETY EQUIPMENT. *TR

MY 2007 SATURN VUE HAS GIVEN ME PROBLEMS WITH THE KEY, IGNITION, STEERING WHEEL AND AIR BAG LIGHT. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS TIMES WHERE THE KEY HAS GOTTEN STUCK IN THE IGNITION SWITCH AND WON'T TURN OR COME OUT OF THE IGNITION, LEAVING ME STRANDED IN AND OUT OF TOWN. THERE HAVE ALSO BEEN MANY TIMES THAT AFTER ENTERING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, THE KEY WILL NOT TURN TO START THE CAR. WHEN I TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION, THE WARNING SIGNAL GOES OFF AND I HAVE TO PUT THE TIP OF THE KEY IN THE IGNITION JUST ENOUGH TO TRIGGER A PART OF THE SWITCH TO CLICK INTO PROPER PLACE. THESE THINGS ARE NOT NORMAL AND ARE DEFINITELY DEFECTIVE. THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL JUST COME AN AT ANY GIVEN TIME. IT WORRIES ME THAT THEY WILL NOT DEPLOY WHEN I NEED IT OR THEY DEPLOY AS I'M DRIVING-A SERIOUS HAZARD. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY EVERY OTHER SATURN HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR DEFECTS OTHER THAN THE VUE FOR THESE VERY SAME ITEMS. DO THEY NOT ALL REQUIRE THE SAME PARTS OF WHICH WE SPEAK OF? THERE ARE ENOUGH VALID COMPLAINTS HERE AND TO COME TO RESPONSIBLY TAKE CARE OF THE MATTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SEAT WAS OCCUPIED, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY.

THERE WAS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. WHEN A PASSENGER SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT DOES NOT GO ON. IT WAS BROUGHT INTO THE DEALER ON 3 OR 4 TIMES AND THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER FIXED. WE WERE TOLD THAT THE PASSENGER WAS NOT HEAVY ENOUGH (125 POUNDS). FINALLY THIS AUTO WAS BROUGHT IN TO THE DEALER ON 5/28/14 AND THE PROBLEM WAS REPAIRED. THE TOTAL OUT OF POCKET COST TO ME WAS $751.00. I WAS UPSET WITH GENERAL MOTORS FOR NOT RESOLVING THIS PROBLEM UNDER WARRANTY AND DECIDED NEVER AGAIN TO PURCHASE A GENERAL MOTORS AUTO. THIS CAR WAS TRADED IN ON ANOTHER BRAND OF AUTO. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH, THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING OFTEN ON. WITHIN A FEW MILES THE HORN STARTED BLOWING INTERMITTENTLY. THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THE HORN STARTED BLOWING CONTINUOUSLY. IT REQUIRED DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY TO MAKE IT ALL STOP. THE AIRBAGS AND HORN HAD TO BE DISABLED IN ORDER TO DRIVE THE CAR. *TR

Mileage: 137,776

THE IGNITION WILL LOCK UP AND YOU HAVE TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH WHILE YOU ARE TURNING THE KEY TRYING TO GET TO START. WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD (USUALLY IN 4TH GEAR) THE GAS PEDDLE WILL STOP WORKING, YOU CAN PUT IT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND GET NOTHING. I USUALLY CAN PUSH THE CLUTCH IN AND MAKE IT WORK AGAIN.THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL COME ON WHEN NO ONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. *TR

SHORTLY AFTER A COMPLETE DEALER SERVICE I NOTICED THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT A SENSOR WAS BAD ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THERE WAS POSSIBILITY THAT THE AIRBAG MIGHT NOT DEPLOY DUE TO THE LIGHT BEING ILLUMINATED. I TOLD THE DEALER THAT THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY THEY DECLINED AND TOLD ME THAT "THINGS SOMETIMES WEAR OUT" I CONTACTED GM REGIONAL THEY DECLINED TO FIX THIS UNDER WARRANTY. SO I RELUCTANTLY PAID FOR THE REPAIR TOTALING $968.52. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS WRONG AND A FAILURE OF A CRITICAL SAFETY ISSUE. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC WHO PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST THAT CONFIRMED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 14V118000 (AIR BAGS).

Mileage: 75,000

MY PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED TO COME ON PERIODICALLY, WHETHER SOMEONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT OR NOT. AT TIMES IT WOULD GO OFF, BUT FOR THE PAST 30 DAYS IT STAYS ON WHETHER SOMEONE IS IN THE SEAT OR NOT. ABOUT THE SAME TIME, WE DETECTED A "SHORT" IN THE RADIO SYSTEM, AS AT TIMES YOU CANNOT CHANGE THE STATION, AND I HAVE ACTUALLY HAD THE STATION CHANGE WITHOUT TOUCHING ANY SELECTOR. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN DETECTED IN OTHER MODELS OF SATURNS, IN PARTICULAR. *JS

Mileage: 62,000

FOR THE PAST YEAR I HAVE BEEN HAVING A VERY DIFFICULT TIME INSERTING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND TURNING THE KEY TO TURN ON THE CAR. ONCE I GET THE KEY IN I HAVE TO JIGGLE IT OVER AND OVER UNTIL THE KEY IS ABLE TO TURN. SOMETIMES IT TAKES ME ANYWHERE FROM 5-15 MINUTES. HOWEVER LATELY WHEN THE KEY IS FINALLY IN IT GETS STUCK AND IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE KEY TO BE RELEASED LEAVING ME STRANDED. I ALSO NOTICED THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT TURNS ON AND OFF RANDOMLY WHILE I AM DRIVING THE CAR AND WHILE THERE IS A PASSENGER IN THE CAR. MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS IF THE AIRBAG FAILS TO DEPLOY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. ANOTHER CONCERN OF MINE IS THAT SOMETIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING THE CAR IT ACCELERATES ITSELF FOR A MOMENT OR TWO AND IT IS VERY SCARY. I AM CURRENTLY UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE I AM SCARED, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I DRIVE MY 5 AND 1 YEAR OLD EVERYDAY. I AM UNABLE TO GET THE CAR LOOKED AT THIS TIME DUE TO FINANCIAL REASONS. MY SATURN VUE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL HOWEVER I REALLY WISH IT WERE BECAUSE ALL OF THE PROBLEMS I AM EXPERIENCING ARE VERY SIMILAR TO THAT OF THE GM VEHICLES THAT WERE RECALLED. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE SATURN VUE 2007 IGNITION PROBLEM, AIRBAG LIGHT PROBLEM, AND ACCELERATING PROBLEM. THANK YOU SO MUCH. *TR

I PURCHASED THE USED VUE IT CAME WITH 12,000 OR 12 MONTHS WARRANTY WE HAD IT IN THE DEALER MANY TIMES,OF COURSE THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULDN'T STAY ON. THEY TOLD US THEY ADJUSTED SENSOR CODE B0092. EVERY OTHER WHEN THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG THEY REPLACED PARTS BUT NOT THIS AIR BAG LIGHT. AFTER THE 12,000 WARRANTY WAS UP THE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON. I BROUGHT IT THE DEALER WHERE WE PURCHASED SATURN AFTER A $99.00 BILL,2 YRS LATER THE LIGHT IS ON. EVER ONCE AND A WHILE IF YOU TWIST AND THE LIGHT WILL GO OFF. WE ARE GOING TO GIVE THIS CAR TO OUR DAUGHTER WHO IS HAVING A BABY. WILL IT BE SAFE FOR A FAMILY CAR? THANK YOU *TR

I BOUGHT A 2007 SATURN VUE FROM A DEALER AS WELL AND MY AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE COMES ON A LOT TO. IT IS ON WHEN NO ONE IS SITTING IN IT BUT TURNS OFF WHEN SOMEONE DOES SIT IN IT. NO MATTER THE SIZE OR WEIGH OF THAT PERSON SOMETIMES IT WILL SAY IT IS ON SOMETIMES IT WILL SAY IT HAS BEEN TURNED OFF. NOT SURE IF THERE IS REALLY ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG OR IT IS JUST A LIGHT TELLING YOU THERE IS. ON-STAR SAYS THAT AIRBAGS ARE FINE THOUGH. LITTLE CONCERNED IF THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE AIRBAGS BECAUSE THAT IS ONE HECK OF A LAWSUIT THEY WILL HAVE ON THERE HANDS IF WE ARE TO EVER GET IN AN ACCENT AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. IF IT WAS INDEED A MANUFACTURING ISSUE AND IT SEEMS TO BE THE CASE HERE, IT SHOULD BE FIXED FOR FREE AND FAST FOR SAFETY REASONS. *TR *JS

I BOUGHT A 2007 SATURN VUE FROM A DEALER AS A USED VEHICLE. SHORTLY AFTER, THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED COMING ON. SOMETIMES IT WOULD GO OFF AND IT HAS PERSISTED TO THE POINT NOW THAT IT DOESN'T GO OFF AT ALL. WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED, I CONSULTED THE OWNERS MANUAL AND FOUND NOTES WRITTEN IN IT BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. IT WAS INDICATED THAT IT WAS FIXED (SENSOR) BUT STARTED AGAIN SHORTLY AFTER. EVERY MONTH MY ON STAR REPORTS INDICATE A PROBLEM WHICH REQUIRES IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. I HAD IT SEEN AT A GM DEALER THEY WANT ANOTHER $500 TO FIX IT. *TR

IT WOULD WORK OCCASIONALLY (WHEN I TESTED THE BUTTON) NOW THE PASSENGERS SIDE WORK, BUT THE DRIVERS SIDE DOSE NOT. I WAS TOLD BY SATURN THAT THEY ARE UNRELATED ISSUES. I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND THAT? MY CAR IS IN THE SHOP TO HAVE SERVICE DONE ON IT. THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW NEEDS TO BE FIXED. AT THE COST OF $265.00 JUST THE DRIVER SIDE, AND THEY SAID THAT THEIR IS NO PROBLEM WITH PASS. SIDE... I CAN SEE THAT THE WINDOWS ARE AN ISSUES WITH THIS TYPE ON SATURN... AND NO ONE IS ADDRESSING THIS ISSUES. THEIR IS DEFINITELY A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAG SYSTEM AS WELL AS THE WINDOW SYSTEM. I LOVE MY CAR, BUT WHAT I'M READING HERE SEEM TO SHOW ME THAT THE PROBLEMS ARE REAL CONCERNING MY CAR. AND THE SERVICE CENTER SAID THAT THEY NOT RELATED? I HAVE A BIG PROBLEM WITH THAT.

MY 2007 SATURN VUE ALL THE TIME SINCE I PURCHASED IT THE PASSENGER SIDE DEPLOYMENT BAG LIGHT WILL NOT WORK, UNLESS I TURN ON THE PASSENGER HEAT , AND THE SEAT DOES NOT HEAT UP, AND I AM STILL NOT SURE IT WILL WORK BECAUSE IT IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, ALSO MY ELECTRIC WINDOWS WON'T WORK ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, AND THE IGNITION SHIFT THE KEY STICKS AND STEERING COLUMN LOCKS WHEN THIS HAPPENS, AND IT WON'T RELEASE THE KEY. DEALER WON'T DEAL WITH IT, WONDER IF THERE HAS BEEN ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS BECAUSE I DO NOT FEEL SAFE ESPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE PASSENGERS, IT CANNOT BE TRUSTED, NOT SURE OF ANY RECALLS, BUT IT DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AND FIXED BEFORE ANYONE COULD GET HURT. *TR
