THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON THAT MUST BE DEPRESSED IN ORDER TO PUT THE CAR INTO ANY GEAR HAS COME OFF. THE BUTTON CAN BE REPLACED, BUT MUST BE PROPERLY LINED UP AND CAN IMMEDIATELY FALL OFF AGAIN. THIS COULD CAUSE A REAL SAFETY ISSUE IF IT OCCURRED IN TRAFFIC. *TR

ONE DAY UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE I EXPERIENCED A VERY STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE. I LIVED IN THE COUNTRY AT THE TIME AND ALSO IN TEXAS. I SHRUGGED IT OFF THINKING I MAYBE GOT SOME ON THE SIDE OF THE CAR OR MY CLOTHES. LATER I ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND ATTEMPTED TO START IT. TURNS OVER 6 TIMES AFTER A SINGLE BUMP OF THE KEY BUT THIS TIME THE CAR DID NOT START. I THEN REMEMBERED THAT EARLIER I SMELLED FUEL. I THOUGHT MAYBE I HAVE A LEAK IN THE LINES. I CYCLED THE KEY 3 TIMES THEN TRIED TO START IT AGAIN. AFTER THE FIRST TURN IT CRANKED RIGHT UP. WHEN I RETURNED HOME THAT AFTERNOON I RESEARCHED A LITTLE AND FOUND THAT ITS BEEN NOTORIOUS FOR DEVELOPING A CRACK IN THE LINES RIGHT OFF OF THE PUMP. I LOOKED FOR A RECALL BUT FOUND NOTHING. NOTHING BUT COMPLAINTS THAT IS. WWW.ROCKAUTO.COM SAVED ME $200 FROM THE PRICE THAT O'REILLYS WANTED ME TO PAY BUT REGARDLESS THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. *TR

HIGHWAY BOUNCING? UNBALANCED FEELING UNDER VEHICLE? REPLACE STRUTS ASAP!! OKAY FOR THE PAST 30,000 MILES I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING WHAT I COULD DESCRIBE AS A CONSTANT BOUNCE. THE BOUNCE HAS NOW BECOME SO VIOLENT THAT CROSSING A BRIDGE ON A HIGHWAY THE BUMP WILL INCREASE THE AGGRESSION OF THE BOUNCE TO THE POINT THAT YOU BOUNCE RIGHT OFF OF THE ROAD. I HAVE SLOWLY BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT CAUSES THIS BOUNCING WOBBLE. AFTER NEW RIMS,CV-HALF SHAFTS, LUGNUTS, TIRES, STABILIZER END-LINKS, TIE-ROD ENDS, INNER TIE-ROD ENDS, AND BALL JOINTS. THE BOUNCE GOT MORE CONTROLLABLE FOR A SHORT PERIOD. NOT LONG AFTER THE NEW PARTS STARTED TO BREAK DOWN AGAIN. FINALLY DURING THE PURCHASE OF ALL OF THESE THINGS OVER AGAIN. I FIND AN INSTANCE WHERE THIS EXACT THING HAPPENED TO ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL. DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH THE CONSTANT BOUNCE AS ALWAYS (4 MECHANICS ---- I AM PRETTY MECHANICALLY INCLINED, BUT COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM) THIS OTHER INDIVIDUAL GOES UP ON A BRIDGE (HIGHWAY SPEEDS) AND BOUNCES STRAIGHT ACROSS AND RIGHT OFF OF THE HIGHWAY INTO THE DITCH. LUCKILY IN BOTH OF OUR CASES WE WERE ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE BEFORE HITTING ANYTHING OTHER THAN SOME TALL GRASS AND SLIDING AROUND IN THE DIRT A BIT ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. HE TAKES HIS FAMILY AND CAR TO THE NEAREST MECHANIC (THEY WERE GOING ON VACATION) AND THIS MECHANIC KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. RELIEVED THIS PERSON WAS THAT HE HAD FINALLY FOUND A MECHANIC THAT SOLVED THIS WRETCHED, ANNOYING, AND ODD PROBLE

CAR LOSES POWER, BEGINS TO SMELL OF GAS AND CAN BE HARD TO RESTART. SMELLS OF GAS AFTER STARTING OR DRIVING FOR ANY PERIOD OF TIME NOW. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY SATURN ION 2006 CAR AT 25 MILE/HOUR SPEED WHEN SUDDENLY I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL , IT JAMMED TOTALLY. I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT IT WILL GET SO DIFFICULT TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO STOP MY CAR ON THE SIDE AND THAN I TURNED IT OFF AND STARTED AGAIN , ON RE START THE STEERING FUNCTION RETURNED TO NORMAL.THIS WAS VERY SCARY FOR ME AS IF THE SAME INCIDENT HAD HAPPENED TO ME ON A HIGHWAY IT CAN BE FATAL. I HAD HEARD ABOUT THE FAILURE OF THE POWER STEERING AND RECALL . I THOUGHT IF IT FAILS I WILL BE STILL ABLE TO MOVE MY STEERING LIKE A OLD CAR WITHOUT POWER STEERING, BUT THE CASE IS DIFFERENT HERE, THE STEERING IS UNABLE TO MOVE EVEN WITH GREATER FORCE.I AM GOING BY TRAIN TO MY JOB TOMORROW , NOT WANT TO TAKE THE SAME RISK. NOW I HAVE PLAN TO GET IT FIXED AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.I WILL CONTACT A DEALER AND WANT TO GET IT REPAIRED UNDER THE RECALL BY GM. I HAVE A RECALL LETTER FROM GM FOR THIS STEERING PROBLEM. *TR

THIS CAR HAS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. I TRIED TO PUT IT IN GEAR TO BACK OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY AND IT WOULDN'T BUDGE. SO I LET IT ROLL BACKWARDS IN NEUTRAL TO THE STREET. I PUMPED THE CLUTCH TO SEE IF THAT WOULD WORK. IT WOULDN'T GO INTO FIRST GEAR WHEN I WOULD TRY TO GET IT IN GEAR IT WOULD SLOWLY MOVE FORWARD EVEN THOUGH IT WASN'T IN GEAR. I CHECKED THE FLUID LEVELS AND THEY WERE FINE. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND TRIED TO PUT IT IN FIRST IT WENT INTO FIRST GEAR JUST FINE AND WHEN I TURNED THE IGNITION ON, IT LUNGED ME FORWARD. I DROVE ABOUT 25 FEET WHILE TRYING TO CHANGE INTO SECOND GEAR, IT WOULDN'T BUDGE. SO I HAD TO TURN OFF THE CAR AGAIN SO IT WOULD GO INTO FIRST GEAR THEN I STARTED IT UP AND IT LUNGED ME FORWARD AGAIN. I NEEDED TO TURN AROUND TO GET BACK TO THE HOUSE BECAUSE SOMETHING WAS CLEARLY WRONG. I TRIED ONCE AGAIN TO PUT IT IN SECOND, SAME PROBLEM I HAD TO TURN IT OFF THEN THROW IT IN FIRST AND START IT UP REAL QUICK. I FINALLY GOT IT IN SECOND GEAR AND DROVE IT HOME. I STAYED IDLING IN SECOND GEAR IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE FOR ABOUT 5-7 MIN. THEN I TRIED TO GO AND IT WORKED, IT WENT INTO GEAR WITH EASE, AND CHANGED INTO ALL THE OTHER GEARS WITH EASE AS I DOVE THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD JUST LIKE IT WAS A BRAND NEW CAR AGAIN & ALL DAY LIKE NOTHING HAD EVER HAPPENED. NOW EVERY MORNING SINCE THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED SO I TAKE THE SAME STEPS, I PUMP THE CLUTCH AND LET IT SIT ABOUT 5 MIN. AND END UP APPLYING PRESSURE TO GET IT INTO GEAR AND IT WILL WORK ALL DAY UNTIL THIS MOR

MY SATURN WAS AT THE DEALER FOR THE GM IGNITION RECALL. THE DEALER TOLD ME MY FUEL LINES WERE ROTTED AND LEAKING. I THOUGHT THIS ODD SINCE THE CAR WAS AT THE MECHANIC'S FOR A RUSTED EXHAUST THE WEEK BEFORE. I CALLED MY MECHANIC FROM THE DEALER AND HE SAID TO BRING THE CAR BACK THAT DAY.

ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO I STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH ON MY 2006 SATURN ION 2. THE KEY WOULD GET STUCK IN THERE, OR BE HARD TO PUT IT IN ALL THE WAY BEFORE STARTING THE CAR. AT TIMES THE ENGINE WOULD STAY ON EVEN AFTER KEY WAS OUT AND ALL THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS WOULD ALL COME ON EVEN WHEN THE ENGINE WAS OFF. SUDDENLY MY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STOPPED WORKING ALL TOGETHER (ALL GAUGES DEAD) WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE WARNING LIGHTS. THEY WOULD ALWAYS STAY ON EVEN WHEN CAR WAS OFF AND KEY WAS OUT. LATER, JUST AS SUDDEN THE CLUSTER WORKED FINE AGAIN, ONLY TO DIE A MONTH LATER LEAVING ALL WARNING LIGHTS ALWAYS ON AGAIN. WHILE ALL THIS WAS HAPPENING I WAS STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH THE IGNITION. MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS CAUSING THE CLUSTER TO MALFUNCTION AND EVENTUALLY BURNED IT OUT. BECAUSE OF FINANCIAL ISSUES I WAS UNABLE TO REPLACE THE SWITCH OR THE CLUSTER AT THE TIME. WHEN I RECEIVED THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL LETTER, I TOOK IT TO GET REPLACED AND EXPLAINED THE CLUSTER SITUATION BUT DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO REPLACE THE CLUSTER AND SAID IT WAS A DIFFERENT ISSUE. FOR MONTHS I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TELL HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE, HOW FAST I'M DRIVING OR THE TEMPERATURE OF THE CAR. IT'S FRUSTRATING AND EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. I HAVE STAYED STRANDED ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY CHILDREN SEVERAL TIMES, BUT GM WILL NOT HELP RESOLVE THE ELECTRICAL ISSUE. *TR

I WENT TO START MY CAR TO GO TO WORK AND THE KEY WOULD NOT MOVE IN THE IGNITION. NOT ONE MILLIMETER. I CHECKED THAT THE WHEELS WERE STRAIGHT, CHECKED THAT IT WAS IN PARK. STILL NO MOVEMENT. MEANING I WAS NOT ABLE TO MOVE THE KEY FORWARD OR BACKWARD. AFTER TRYING AT THE MINIMUM 15 TIMES, I CALLED TRIPLE A AND THEN MY HUSBAND. HE TOLD ME TO CANCEL TRIPLE A AND CONTACT THE DEALER AND HAVE THEM DEAL WITH IT. AS IT WAS ONLY 7:15 AND I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL THE DEALER OPENED AT 9:00. I SAT AND KEPT TRYING TO GET THE KEY TO MOVE. AROUND 8:00 IT JUST SUDDENLY MOVED FORWARD AND THE CAR STARTED. I GUESS I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE GM INSTALLED THAT WHOLE IGNITION PART THING ON MY CAR ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO. I'M AFRAID TO CALL THEM BECAUSE WHAT COULD I SAY? THE CAR STARTS FINE NOW. BUT I DON'T SEE HOW I CAN HAVE ANY PIECE OF MIND WORRYING THAT THIS MIGHT OCCUR AT ANY TIME OR ANYPLACE. I HAVE ALSO BEEN WAITING FOR 2 MONTHS FOR A SAFETY RECALL PART(SAFETY RECALL#14115) FOR POWER STEERING THAT MAY SUDDENLY BE LOSS. I HAVE CALLED GM SEVERAL TIMES TO REQUEST A RENTAL OR LOANER VEHICLE AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT I AM SAFE IN THE CAR AND IF I AM "GOING FAST" I AM "SAFER". I AM EXTREMELY NERVOUS THAT I COULD BE INVOLVED IN A CRASH OR WORSE AND DRIVE THE CAR EVERYDAY WITH A FEELING OF DREAD. *TR

IN 2012 MY CAR KEY WAS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. THE NEXT DAY AFTER 450.00+ THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE IGNITION CYLINDER. A FEW MONTHS LATER BOTH AIRBAG LIGHTS CAME ON & STAYED ON. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME SINCE IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG & SAFETY THERE WOULD NOT BE A CHARGE FOR THE DIANOSTIC; WHEN I ARRIVED I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WOULD BE A 75.00 CHARGE. I LEFT THE DEARSHIP WITHOUT THE TESTING. A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER THE OIL WAS CHANGED & I ASKED FOR A TEST TO CHECK THE AIRBAG LIGHT. WHEN FINISHED THE TECH SAID THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG & I WOULD NEED TO TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP. WE ARE A ONE CAR HOUSEHOLD SO I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL BEING WITHOUT A CAR WOULD HAVE MINIMAL IMPACT. WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THE RECALL I WAITED & HAD THE DEALERSHIP DUE A TEST IN CASE IT WAS SOMETHING AFFECTED BY THE IGNITION CYLINDER. LAST WEEK I TOOK IT TO THE SERVICING DEALERSHIP & ASKED THEY CHECK THE AIRBAG LIGHT. LATER I RECEIVED A CALL ADVISING THE AIRBAG SENSOR HAD SHORTED OUT & A NEW SENSOR WOULD COST 900.00+. I MENTIONED DISABLING THE AIRBAG & WAS TOLD IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL LAW TO DO SO. THE SERVICE TECH SAID IN KS SEAT BELTS ON CARS PURCHASED IN KS ARE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY FOR 10 YRS & 3 YRS FOR AIRBAGS. I SUGGEST THAT CAR CO.'S CONSIDER A LIFETIME OR LIFE OF CAR OWNERSHIP WARRANTY FOR BOTH SEAT BELTS & AIRBAGS. FEW HAVE CLOSE TO 1K TO SPEND ON REPAIRING/REPLACING AN AIRBAG SENSOR & IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO HAVE A LAW STATING THE AIRBAG CAN'T BE DISABLED BUT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SATURN ION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE CAME TO AN ABRUPT STOP AND THE KEY MOVED OUT OF THE START POSITION INDEPENDENTLY. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT TIRES WERE DAMAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V047000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000.

WHEN MY CAR FIRST STARTED CUTTING ITSELF OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE OR ROADS, R WHEN TURNING KEY TO TURN CAR OFF, THE KEY WOULDN'T TURN CAR OFF. YOU CAN REMOVE THE KEY BUT CAR IS STILL ON. THE DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK TILL THE STARTER SWITCH LOCKS ITSELF INTO OFF. YOU CAN PUT CAR INTO PARK AND KEY WILL NOT TURN OFF. I STRONGLY FEEL THAT THIS GOES ALONG WITH THE PROBLEM OF THE KEY TURNING CAR OFF WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. THAT RECALL WAS DONE BUT WE STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM OF NOT BEING ABLE TO TURN CAR OFF WITH THE KEY. IF YOU REMOVE THE KEY CAR IS STILL ON, THIS IS A PROBLEM AS SOMETIMES YOU CAN NOT SIT THERE WAITING ON CAR TO SHUT OFF AND THIS WORRIES ME AS TO SAFETY. *TR

VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL COMING FROM REAR OF VEHICLE. NO SIGN OF FUEL UNDERNEATH VEHICLE. THERE IS A FUEL SYSTEM RECALL (GM # 090226) DESCRIBING THESE SAME SYMPTOMS FOR 2006 SATURN IONS PURCHASED IN CALIFORNIA. RECALL WARNS OF FIRE DANGER. GM REPRESENTATIVE REPORTS MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED BASED ON VIN NUMBER, BUT ALL SYMPTOMS MATCH RECALL AND I DON'T THINK THAT THE CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE, ESPECIALLY SINCE WE HAVE A THREE-YEAR-OLD IN A CAR SEAT IN THE BACK MUCH OF THE TIME. *TR

OUR INSURED WAS ON I-10 METAIRIE AND HESITATED THAT THEY WERE TRAVELING DOWN I-10 AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF THEM HIT THE BRAKES AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP.

WHILE DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY INCLUDING MY 18 MONTH OLD BABY IN THE CAR. THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND MY HUSBAND HAD TO USE WAY MORE MUSCLE AND STRENGTH THEN I HAVE TO STEER MY CAR. GM HAD INFORMED THAT I NEED TO PULL OVER SHUT MY CAR OFF AND RESTART IT. MY FEAR IS WHAT IF I AM GOING FASTER THEN 30 MPH AND DRIVING ON A FREEWAY. BUT AT THE TIME GM DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. BUT THEY DON'T FEEL IT IS DANGEROUS. UM ANY TIME A CAR IS NOT OPERATE TO ITS FULL POTENTIAL IT ENDANGERS THE ALL PEOPLE ON THE ROAD. *TR

AS I DROVE MY CAR TURNED OFF NOT ALLOWING ME TO USE MY BRAKES NOW THE KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION EVERY NOW AND THEN. *TR

WHILE WE WE'RE STOP AT A STOP SIGN, A VEHICLE CRASHED INTO US WHILE MAKING A TURN. OUR ION AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY AND NOW IGNITION SWITCH WILL NOT TURN OFF. WE HAD ION FIX AND ALSO THE RECALL ON THE POWER STEERING HAS BEEN FIX, BUT STILL HAS THE PROBLEM OF IGNITION SWITCH NOT TURNING OFF. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH MANY IONS AND IT ALARMS ME AS TO SAFETY! *TR

WHILE DRIVING I HEARD A SERIES OF CHIMES AND POWER STEERING INDICATOR CAME ON. I THEN WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. WHEN I TRIED AGAIN I HAD TO TURN WIDE INTO TRAFFIC BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH I WAS TURNING THE WHEEL AS HARD AS I COULD I COULDN'T CONTROL IT. I CONTACTED GM ABOUT THE RECALL AND THEY TOLD ME THAT ALONG WITH THAT THERE WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL. I WAS GIVEN A LOANER BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AFTER THE ABOVE INCIDENT. I WAS CONTACTED ON TUESDAY, JULY 8, 2014 AND WAS TOLD THE IGNITION SWITCH PARTS WERE IN. I INFORMED THEM THAT I COULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR TO KELLY BUICK GMC BECAUSE OF THE POWER STEERING ISSUE SO THEY MADE ARRANGEMENTS TO TOW THE CAR TO THEIR LOCATION. NOW THEY ARE TELLING ME TO TURN IN THE LOANER, BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THE WHEEL IS HARD TO TURN , THAT IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE. I TOLD THE SERVICE PERSON THAT I AM A MIDDLE AGED WOMAN AND DO NOT HAVE THE STRENGTH IN MY ARMS TO TURN THAT WHEEL AND THAT I AM AFRAID. I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT GM WHICH I WILL IN THE MORNING BECAUSE NOW I HAVE NO WAY TO GET THE CAR FROM KELLY BUICK, WHEN THEY KNEW WHEN THEY TOWED IT IN I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT, BECAUSE OF THE STRUGGLE TO TURN THE WHEEL. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD SEE WHAT THEY COULD DO, HOWEVER THEY DID NOTHING TO THE POWER STEERING AND I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT. I WILL CONTACT KELLY AND GM TOMORROW ABOUT THIS SITUATION THAT I HAVE BEEN PUT IN. *TR

MY CAR EXPERIENCED POWER STEERING FAILURE AND IS UNDER A RECALL FOR POWER STEERING FAILURE. THE GM DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE PART TO FIX THE STEERING IS UNAVAILABLE AND MAY BE UNAVAILABLE FOR MONTHS BUT THAT I SHOULD DRIVE IT ANYWAY. I HAVE REQUESTED A RENTAL VEHICLE BECAUSE THE RECALL NOTICE SAYS THAT MY VEHICLE IS AT AN "INCREASED RISK OF CRASH" AND THAT THE PROBLEM COULD "OCCUR AT ANY TIME". THE DEALERSHIP AGREES WITH ME THAT THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE BUT THAT THEY ARE UNDER ORDERS TO NOT OFFER RENTAL VEHICLES FOR THIS PARTICULAR RECALL. OPERATORS AT THE GM HOTLINES REFUSE TO GIVE THEIR NAMES OR OFFER ASSISTANCE OTHER THAN COMMENTS OF "WORK HARDER TO STEER YOUR CAR" ([XXX]) AND "AT LEAST IT'S STILL DRIVABLE" ([XXX])... GM'S WEB SITE SAYS THAT "RENTAL CARS ARE AVAILABLE WHEN REQUESTED BY CONCERNED OWNERS AT GM'S EXPENSE" BUT STILL NO ONE WILL HELP ME.

IGNITION RECALL,ON WAITING LIST FROM MARCH 2014.PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.GM INFORMED ME OF DEALER IN JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA TO DO REPLACEMENT. I'AM STAYING WITH DAUGHTER WAITING REPAIR. HOW LONG DOES GM MAKE US WAIT.. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME EARLY ONE MORNING AND MY IGNITION HAD SHUT OFF LIKE IT HAD MANY TIMES BEFORE THIS TIME THE WEATHER CONDITIONS BEING SNOWY AND SLUSHY CAUSED ME TO GET STUCK AND THE VEHICLE WAS YANKED INTO THE DITCH. I HAD CALLED THE CLAIMS NUMBER AFTER MY CAR HAD SAT AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS MAYBE LONGER AND THEY TOLD ME SINCE THE CLAIM WAS NOT FILED AS OF THE RECALL CAME OUT THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. THERE IS NOTHING THAT GM CAN DO THEY WILL NOT REFUND ME FOR THE MONEY TO REPLACE MY RADIATOR, CONDENSER, AND COOLING FAN THAT I NEEDED REPAIRED AT THAT TIME TO MAKE MY VEHICLE RUN. I DID NOT HAVE MONEY AT THE TIME TO FIX THE COSMETIC DAMAGE IN THE FENDER AND THE BUMPER SO THAT IS STILL BROKEN. THE CLAIMS DEPARTMENT ADVISED ME SINCE IT WAS SO LONG AFTER THE ACIDENT THEY COULD NOT CHECK THE VEHICLES RECORDS TO SEE IF THE VEHICLE HAD ACTUALLY SHUT OFF. NOW THE REASON MY CAR IS SITTING AT THE DEALER SHIP IS BECAUSE THIS TIME MY CAR WAS STUCK RUNNING THE KEY IS IN THE ON POSITION AND COULDNT BE TURNED OFF. I WOULD LIKE SOME ACTION TO BE TAKEN OR SOMEONE TO CONTACT ME IN ORDER TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2006 SATURN ION 3 IN 2008 FROM A DEALERSHIP. I HAVE HAD ALL THE RECALL ISSUES HAPPEN TO MY VEHICLE. 1) I HAVE REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH AND CYLINDER TWICE DUE TO THE CAR BEING UNABLE TO SHUT OFF. THIS HAPPENED IN 2008 AND AGAIN IN 2012. BOTH TIMES IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND REPAIRS WERE DONE BY GM DEALERSHIP. EVEN THOUGH THESE HAVE BEEN REPLACED I WAS TOLD THEY NEED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN UNDER THE RECALL BECAUSE THOSE PARTS ARE FAULTY AS WELL. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS YET AND WILL LET ME KNOW WHEN THEY ARE AVAILABLE. 2) IN NOVEMBER 2013 MY VEHICLE SMELLED OF GAS AND WAS MAKING ME AND MY CHILDREN SICK. I HAD IT CHECKED OUT AT THE DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS THE FUEL MODULE. THIS WAS COVERED BY A NTSB WARRANTY EXTENSION. 3) MY VEHICLE WILL INTERMITTENTLY SHUT OFF OR LOSE POWER STEERING. WHEN I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP IN 2013 THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD NOT TOUCH IT IF THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. 4) THIS ISSUE IS NOT MENTIONED IN ANY OF THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ HERE, BUT I HAVE SEEN OTHERS COMPLAIN ON THE INTERNET. BEGINNING IN JANUARY OF 2014 THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OF EXHAUST FUMES IN MY VEHICLE. MY PERSONAL MECHANIC SAID THERE IS A LEAK THAT IS GOING INTO THE CABIN. MY VEHICLE IS SLOW TO ACCELERATE AND FEELS SHAKY. THERE IS ALSO A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN AT ALL TIMES. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THI

ON OR ABOUT 9/12/2012, I WAS DRIVING IN MY SATURN ION GOING 45 MILES AN HOUR, IN HEAVY MORNING TRAFFIC, WHEN IN AN INSTANT MY CAR DECELERATED AND WAS AT A SLOW CRAWL. I COULD NOT GET ANY ACCELERATION EVEN WHEN PRESSING THE GAS. I WAS ONLY A COUPLE BLOCKS AWAY FROM WORK, SO I COASTED UNTIL I GOT THERE. I WAS ALMOST HIT. BUT I COULD NOT GO ANY FASTER. I WAS AFRAID TO TURN OFF THE CAR FOR FEAR THAT IT WOULD NOT START UP AGAIN. I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AND I CALLED TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. HENDERSON CHEVROLET LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THAT IT WAS THE COMPUTER MOTHERBOARD OF THE CAR. THIS WAS REPLACED AT A COST TO ME OF $800.00+. IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON 11/20/12. THE CAR WENT FROM 30 TO 5 MILES PER HOUR IN A SPLIT SECOND! NO WARNINGS. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD NO IDEA WHAT WANT GOING ON WITH IT NOR WHY IT WAS DOING THIS. THEIR SUGGESTION TO ME WAS TO GET ANOTHER VEHICLE. WHAT MY SATURN DID IS THE SAME THING DESCRIBED IN THE IGNITION RECALL. WHEN THIS HAPPENED TO ME , THERE WAS NO RECALL. NO ONE THOUGHT OF LOOKING AT THE IGNITION. WHEN I LOST POWER, MY THOUGHT WAS NOT GEE, MAYBE MY KEYS ARE TOO HEAVY & MY CAR TURNED OFF! ME SEE IF MY IGNITION TURNED OFF WHEN I WENT OVER THAT BUMP. HAD THE RECALL IGNITION PROBLEM HAD BEEN SOMETHING THAT GM WAS AWARE OF AT THE TIME AND NOTICE WAS RECEIVED, THE MECHANIC WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT THIS WAS THE PROBLEM. BUT I REPLACED THE BRAIN OF MY CAR AT $800 WHEN IT WAS NOT NEEDED. NOT WANTING IT T

I FIRST BOUGHT MY 2006 SATURN ION IN MARCH OF 2013. THREE DAYS LATER I NOTICE THAT WHEN I WOULD GET ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR WOULD SWAY EXTREMELY BAD. OUR HWY SPEED IS 75. GOING 70MPH WAS TOO MUCH AND IT WOULD SWAY A LOT. MIND YOU I WAS PREGNANT AT THE TIME. THE CAR SPUN OUT AS I WAS EXITING THE HIGHWAY. I WAS TERRIFIED BECAUSE CARS WERE RIGHT BEHIND ME. THANK GOD I GOT OUT OF THE WAY BEFORE I GOT HIT. YOU CAN UNDERSTAND HOW UPSET I WAS DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WAS 4MONTHS PREGNANT AT THE TIME. SINCE THEN MY HUSBAND HAS SPUN OUT 5 TIMES DRIVING OUR CAR. WE'VE TAKING IT TO THE MECHANICS MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT. OUR WHEEL ALIGNMENTS ARE FINE. ALSO, OUR KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION A LOT UPON TURNING IT OFF. SO WE HAVE TO USE THE BUTTON WHICH IS IN THE STEERING WHEEL JUST TO GET THEM OUT. ALSO, LATELY THE CAR PICKS AND CHOOSES WHEN IT WANTS TO ACCELERATE. LATELY I CAN FLOOR IT AND THE CAR WILL STILL BE GOING 30MPH. ALSO, LATELY WHEN WE GO TO TURN ON THE CAR, IT TAKES AWHILE AND MAKES A SOUND AS IF THE BATTERY IS DEAD, BUT THEN IT SOON COMES ON. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR FROM THE START. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD BUY, BUT EVERYDAY I REGRET IT AND I FEAR FOR ME, MY HUSBAND, AND MY CHILD'S SAFETY. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. MATTER OF FACT JUST TAKE OUR CARS. WE DON'T NEED THEM FIXED. JUST TAKE THEM PLEASE! *TR

I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR SINCE I BOUGHT IT, 2006 SATURN ION. WHY DON'T YOU GUYS JUST PURCHASE THEM FROM US AND GET THEM OFF THE ROAD? WE ARE PAYING OUT WAY MORE THAN WHAT THEY ARE WORTH. YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN SPENDING A BUNCH THESE PAST FEW MONTHS, WOULDN'T IT BE CHEAPER JUST TO BUY THEM FROM US? I'M FED UP WITH ALL THESE PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE HAD AND THERE'S NO ONE THAT WILL BUY THESE CARS FROM US, I HAVE ADVERTISED MANY OF TIMES AND NO ONE WANTS THEM. I HAVE A 3 YEAR OLD SON AND I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH HIM IN MY SATURN. I AM GOING TO CALL WHOEVER I CAN TO SEE WHAT I CAN DO ABOUT SOMEONE GETTING MY CAR OFF THE ROAD BECAUSE I'M SO TIRED OF FEELING UNSAFE AND NOT BEING ABLE TO DRIVE MY SATURN BECAUSE OF THE TERRIBLE FEELING I GET WHEN I THINK I AM GOING TO HAVE TO DRIVE MY SON IN THIS PIECE OF CRAP. I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU COULD HAVE SOMEONE CONTACT ME OR GIVE ME FURTHER INFORMATION ON WHO TO CONTACT ABOUT MY SITUATION. MY NAME IS [XXX] AND YOU CAN CONTACT ME AT [XXX]. THANK YOU AND I'LL BE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO CALL ME ASAP! ! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
