THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE AND BURNED BEYOND REPAIR. I WAS DRIVING THE SPEED LIMIT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. I HEARD A VERY LOUD THUMP UNDER THE HOOD. I PULLED ONTO THE SHOULDER TO INVESTIGATE, WHEN A CAR PULLED BESIDE ME AND THE DRIVER TOLD ME THAT THERE WERE FLAMES COMING FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY CAR. THE FLAMES QUICKLY GREW AND HUGE BILLOWS OF BLACK SMOKE IMPAIRED VISIBILITY OF THE PEOPLE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. BY THE TIME THE FIRE TRUCK ARRIVED, FROM THE STEERING WHEEL FORWARD, THE CAR WAS LARGELY ASH AND BLACKENED METAL. *TR

MY TIRES ARE FREQUENTLY GETTING SIDEWALL BULGES. THIS HAPPENED ON A NEW 2008 SATURN ASTRA AFTER IT WAS ABOUT 6 MONTHS OLD. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE SO I PURCHASED A NEW TIRE. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THE TIRES ARE HANKOOK P225/45R17. *TR

I BOUGHT A SATURN ASTRA -- BRAND NEW. I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THE TIRES HAD PLUGS IN THEM -- AT LEAST TWO TIRES WITH TWO PLUGS. THE TIRES WERE NOT NEW AND ARE DAMAGED. I CALLED GM, FILED A COMPLAINT, TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALER, AND WAS TOLD THAT THE TIRES WERE DAMAGED. GM JUST CONTACTED ME AND SAID THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE AND THEIR FINAL DECISION IS "BUYER BEWARE". *TR

BOUGHT 08 ASTRA JAN 27, DROVE TO AZ. CAR DROVE FANTASTIC. ON 6/18/2008 I TOOK IT TO SATURN BECAUSE I KEPT HEARING A HIGH PITCH CHIRPING NOISE UPON ACCELERATION. IT ONLY MAKES THIS SOUND IF THE AC IS ON. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE BELT IS LOOSE THE TECH TOLD ME IT WAS BECAUSE THE ENGINE IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO HANDLE THE AC AND EVERYTHING ELSE AT ONE TIME. LIKE I SAID IT DID NOT DO THIS WHEN I BOUGHT. HE TOLD ME TO MONITOR THE NOISE. IT IS STILL MAKING SOUND ALONG WITH A DEEP RATTLE ALSO COMING FROM THE FRONT OF CAR. *TR

I BOUGHT A 2008 SATURN ASTRA 4DR HATCHBACK XE ON MARCH 26, 2008. ON JUNE 26TH, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I NOTICE THAT WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS, THE ACCELERATION SEEMS TO BE LIMITED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 6/28/08, AFTER THE ON-LINE DIAGNOSTICS THROUGH ON-STARON 6/26 INDICATED THAT THERE SEEMS TO BE A MALFUNCTION CODE IN THE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM. THE DEALERSHIP DOWNLOADED NEW SOFTWARE AND RECOMMENDED THAT I MONITOR THE NEXT OCCURRENCE OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I DROVE THE CAR WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FROM THE DEALER ON 6/28, 6/29, HOWEVER ON 6/30, AROUND 9AM, THE CHECK INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER ON 7/2 IN THE MORNING. CURRENTLY, THEY ARE DIAGNOSING THE VEHICLE. *TR
