2007 Saturn Ion complaints

IN JANUARY 2016 WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY TO WORK I HAD BEAR TO THE RIGHT AT AN INTERSECTION FROM 1-90 TO 1-76, WHEELS/STEERING LOCKED OR SOMETHING AND I ENDED UP SPINNING OFF ROADWAY. HIT DIVISION EMBANKMENT CRASHING FRONT END AND MY AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. TRACTION IN THE CAR I LATER FOUND OUT WAS NOT ENGAGING WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. NOW CAR'S TRACTION DOES NOT WORK IF IT EVER REALLY DID. I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH GM COMPLAINTS DEPARTMENT AND NOW I HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER BUT THIS IS ABOUT RECALLS ON Y VEHICLE THAT I DO NOT KNOW THEY REALLY ARE BECAUSE SATURN WANTS ME TO PAY TO GET THIS INFORMATION. I ASKED WHY BUT DID NOT GET AN ANSWER. ONLY WAS TOLD THAT RECALLS ARE VIN SPECIFIC AND I NEEDED TO GO TO HTTPS://WWW.VINCHECKPRO.COM/VIN-REGISTER. NOW MY VEHICLE HAS A CONTROL BOARD THAT IS GOING HAYWIRE LITERALLY. GUAGES BLINKING ON AND OFF, SPEEDOMETER ACTING LIKE A WINDSHIELD WIPER, OIL LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHT, AIRBAG SYMBOL, BATTERY SYMBOL, RADIO BLINKING IN AND OUT RANDOMLY. FUEL AND TEMP GUAGES NOT MOVING AT ALL. KEY STICKS AND CAR WON'T TURN COMPLETELY OFF AT TIMES. CHIMES WONT STOP AND MORE.

LEAKING GAS AND STRONG GAS SMELL AFTER DRIVING

I WAS STARTING MY CAR GETTING READY TO GO TO CHURCH, AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULDN'T TURN, THEN MY POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD MY GRANDDAUTHER TO CALL A MECHANIC AND THEY SAID THAT IT MIGHT BE A ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. MY CAR WAS IN A PARKING SPACE WHERE I LIVE. I DID GET THE CHANCE TO MOVE THE CAR. I CAN DRIVE THE CAR BUT I'M AFRAID THAT IT WILL LOCK ON ME WHILE DRIVING IT.

THE VEHICLE SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE AFTER BEING DRIVEN AND SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE WHEN STATIONARY. THE POWER STEERING WILL DISPLAY A WARMING MESSAGE AND THE CAR WILL BECOME HARD TO STEER.

FUEL LEAKING FROM TOP OF FUEL TANK, COMING FROM BROKEN PORT ON THE FUEL PUMP. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE AS DOCUMENTED IN GM RECALL 09226C, BUT BECAUSE THIS VEHICLE ISN'T IN ANY OF THE STATES LISTED I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET. HOW CAN A RECALL ONLY COVER VEHICLES IN CERTAIN STATES.

THROTTLE BODY POSITION SENSOR AGAIN AND AGAIN CAUSES MAJOR LOSS OF POWER AND SOMETIMES RESULTS IN STALLING OUT IN SECONDS

KEY GE5S STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WON'T COME OUT. IN ADDITION, KEY CAN COME OUT AND THE VEHICLEB WILL STILL BE RUNNING IN THE RUNNING POSITION

GASOLINE IS LEAKING FROM SOMEWHERE ON TOP OF FUEL TANK

ON NOVEMBER 2, 2018, AND AFTER A TWO DAY TRAIN RIDE FROM WASHINGTON, I ARRIVED AT SMITH MOTORS TO INSPECT AND TEST DRIVE A 2007 SATURN ION 3 SEDAN THAT I HAD LOCATED ON CARGURUS.COM. I WAS UNABLE TO LOCATED A CERTIFIED AUTOMOBILE INSPECTOR IN THAT AREA, AND INSPECTING THE VEHICLE IN THE RAIN MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE EXTERIOR DAMAGE, AND TEST DRIVING WITH THE DEFOGGER BLASTING CONCEALED THE DEFECT ABOUT WHICH I AM MAKING THIS COMPLAINT. I SPECIFICALLY ASKED THE SALESMAN, CRAIG MANSKE, WHAT IS THE MEANING OF "CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED," AND HE ASSURED ME THAT THE SATURN HAD UNDERGONE A RIGOROUS INSPECTION AND SERVICING OF EQUAL QUALITY. HE LEFT ME IN THE AGGRESSIVE HANDS OF THE CLOSER, SMITH MOTORS'S BUSINESS MANAGER, ROSS KENT. MR. KENT INSISTED THAT I SIGN A FORM ACKNOWLEDGING THAT MY MODIFYING THE VEHICLE OR USING NON-GM PARTS MIGHT VOID THE WARRANTY. I REMINDED HIM THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TWELVE YEARS OLD, HAD SIXTY-NINE THOUSAND MILES ON IT AND WAS UNDENIABLY OUT-OF-WARRANTY. HE MADE MY SIGNATURE A DEAL-BREAKER, SO I GAVE IN BECAUSE OF THE TIME AND EFFORT I HAD EXPENDED IN GETTING MYSELF TO THE DEALERSHIP IN THE FIRST PLACE TO BUY THIS VEHICLE. I DROVE THE CAR BACK TO WASHINGTON, BUT THE STIFF AND SQUEAKY PEDALS ANNOYED ME ENOUGH THAT I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST CHEVY, BUICK & GMC DEALERSHIP IN WARRENTON, OR. THAT TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO SILENCE THE SQUEAKY PEDALS WITH THE LITHIUM SPRAY DESIGNED FOR THE TASK. I ENDED UP PAYING $55 IN A SUBSEQUENT ATTEMPT BY ANOTHER TECHNICIA

I OWN A 2007 SATURN ION, I RECENTLY STARTED HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE STEERING, THE STEERING WHEEL IS VERY TIGHT AND WHEN I MAKE A TURN I NEED TO PHYSICALLY TURN THE WHEEL BACK IF I DON'T THE CAR WILL CONTINUE GOING IN THE DIRECTION I WAS TURNING. I AM NOW HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING IT ON THE ROAD AS IT WANTS TO PULL TO THE LEFT, IT IS IN ALINEMENT. I PURCHASED MY CAR IN 2013 FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER I DID RECEIVE THE RECALL NOTICE FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH BUT NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE 14V15300. WHEN I ENTER MY VIN# IT SHOWS THAT THERE NO RECALLS.I DRIVE 36 MILES A DAY FOR WORK, I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT BUT IT'S GETTING TO THE POINT THAT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE AND THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE.

I WAS ON MY WAY HOME JUST GETTING OFF HIGHWAY WITH SPEED LIMIT OF 65 MPH, WHEN I PARKED AT LOCAL GROCERY STORE NEAR MY HOME. PARKED IN STALL FINE BUT ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER I FOUND UPON ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE OUT OF THE STALL, I COULD HARDLY TURN MY CAR TO MAKE IT OUT OF THE PARKING LOT. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY DRIVE IT HOME HOPING IT WOULD CORRECT ITSELF THEN NOTICING POWERED STEERING LIGHT ON DASH. ON ARRIVAL TO MY HOME I PARKED BACKWARDS IN FEAR OF GETTING STUCK. I THEN TRIED NUMEROUS TIMES TO TURN ON AND OFF THE CAR WITH NO CHANGE IN STEERING OR DASHBOARD LIGHT. FORTUNATELY THIS HAPPENED LITERALLY A MILE OFF THE HIGHWAY WHICH I COULD HAVE EASILY GOTTEN INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WITH MUCH HIGHER SPEEDS AND NO CONTROL TO DRIVE THE AUTOMOBILE.

AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON ALL THE TIME WHEN I'M DRIVING, OFF THEN COME BACK ON, HAPPENS ON STREETS AND HIGHWAYS, JUST COMES ON AND OFF ALL THE TIME

I HIT MY BRAKES TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT MY CAR WENT TO LEFT IN FRONT OF ANOTHER CAR. I FOUND OUT THAT STRUTS SHIFTED AND CAUSING THE UPPER CONTROL ARM TO SNAP AND BRAKE OFF CAUSING MY CAR TO GO TO THE LEFT INTO ANOTHER CAR. *TR

MY COMPLAINT NUMBER IS 11061303 I COMPLAIN ABOUT POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND I DID NOT RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE. I GUESS WHEN THEY DID THE IGNITION RECALL AND I BROUGHT IT IN THEY SUPPOSEDLY DID THE POWER STEERING TOO ON DEC 12 2014 . EVEN IF THEY DID THIS THE POWER STEERING SHOULD NOT GO BAD IN 3 YEARS. MY CAR IS GARAGE KEPT.

IGNITION. WAS ONCE RECALLED AND FIXED WITH NEW IGNITION. IS STARTING TO DO THE SAME THING.IT DOES NOT TURN OFF THE CAR BECAUSE THE KEY LOCKS IN PLACE.AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS IT FINALLY TURNS, BUT HOW LONG WILL THIS LAST.JUST LIKE LAST TIME.NEEDED NEW IGNITION SWITCH.

THE CONTACT ENGAGED THE CLUTCH TO START THE VEHICLE AND ALL OF THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 92,000.

POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON AND LOST STEERING FOUND OUT THEY HAD RECALL NEVER WAS INFORMED OF THE MATTER OR RECALL. HAD A PROBLEM WITH GAS LINE ABOUT A YEAR AGO TOOK TO DEALERSHIP CAUSE THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT WAS TOLD MINE WASN'T COVERED EVEN THOUGH IT SHOULD OF BEEN COST ME 900 DOLLARS. ONLY RECALL I RECEIVED WAS FOR IGNITION.

POORLY DESIGNED SUNROOF DRAINAGE SYSTEM (SPECIFICALLY DRAIN NIPPLE AT END OF TUBING) CAUSING SEVERE LEAKS TO INSIDE CAB ALONG DRIVER AND PASSENGER FRONT DOORS AND FLOOR. WATER DAMAGE TO POWER WINDOWS, LOCKS, MIRRORS. WATER DAMAGE TO IP TO BODY HARNESS CONNECTOR UNDER FRONT DRIVER SIDE KICK PLATE CAUSING COMPUTER TO PRODUCE FALSE CHECK ENGINE CODES RELATED TO APP AND FORCING ENGINE INTO REDUCED POWER MODE AT HIGH SPEEDS CREATING POSSIBILITY FOR ACCIDENTS.

PREVIOUS RECALL WAS FOR IGNITION, I'M STILL HAVING PROBLEMS SINCE IT WAS SUPPOSING FIXED. THE IGNITION WILL NOT RELEASE MY KEY, THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW. I HAVE TO SIT AND WAIT FOR SEVERAL CLICKS B4 I CAN TAKE MY KEY OUT. NOW IT WILL HOLD MY KEY AND NOT RELEASE AS IT WILL LOCK THE DOORS AND WON'T ALLOW ME TO PUT THE CAR IN GEAR. SO I'M LITERALLY TRAPPED INSIDE. I HAVE TO WAIT SEVERAL MINUTES B4 THE IGNITION WILL RELEASE THE KEY AS WELL AS ALLOW ME TO UNLOCK THE DOOR TO GET OUT. FOR NOW THIS IS ONLY OCCURRING WHEN I AM SITTING STILL. I'M AFRAID THIS WILL HAPPEN WHEN I AM DRIVING.

OVER THE LAST THREE TO FOUR YEARS MY POWER STEERING HAS WENT OUT MY FRONT PASSENGER TIRE HAS ALMOST FALLEN OFF TWICE I HAD TO HAVE IT FIXED MY CAR DON'T WANT TO START AFTER I FILL IT UP IT'S SPUTTERS EVERY TIME AND I'VE HAD LITERALLY HAD TO GET CUT OUT OF MY SEATBELT BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT UNLATCH AND MIKEY DON'T WANT TO COME OUT OF THE IGNITION HAVE THE TIME. THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING THE TIRE ALMOST FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING AND OF COURSE I'M STOPPED WHEN I'M FUELING AND I WAS STOPPED WHEN I WAS STUCK IN MY SEATBELT AND STOPPED EVERY TIME I TRY TO TAKE MY KEY OUT

2007 SATURN ION. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO GAS LEAK AT FUEL TANK. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A STRONG ODOR OF GAS ON THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE. THE CONSUMER WAS ADVISED NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AS IT COULD EXPLODE OR CATCH FIRE. DUE TO THE VEHICLE HAVING RECONSTRUCTED TITLE, THE WARRANTY WAS VOIDED. UPDATED 11/07/2017*JS

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE ABOUT 3 YEARS AGO REGARDING FUEL TANK. HOWEVER, IT SPECIFIED CERTAIN STATES OF ORIGIN. I DISREGARDED NOTICE SINCE I WAS NOT RESIDING IN ONE OF THOSE STATES. MY CAR PERIODICALLY SMELLS OF GAS, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND LOW PERFORMANCE LIGHT GOES ON/OFF AND MY MECHANIC SUGGESTED RECALL. MY SUSPENSION ISSUES HAVE REQUIRED REPLACEMENT OF BEARING AND SWAY BAR ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. MY PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME AND DINGS AS A REMINDER EVERY TIME I START MY VEHICLE.

VERY STRONG ODOR OF GAS AFTER CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING. HAVE READ THERE ARE RECALLS ON THIS CAR BUT THE VIN DOES NOT SAY IT HAS ONE.

HAVE BEEN HAVING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH MY 2007 SATURN ION FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. THE RADIO WILL TURN ON AND OFF BY ITSELF AND IT'S DISPLAY PANEL FLASHES ALL KINDS OF PATTERNS, CAN'T USUALLY TELL IF IT'S ON OR OFF, SINCE THE FLASHING OCCURS EITHER WAY. THE WINDOWS WILL QUIT WORKING BUT AFTER TURNING MY CAR OFF AND ON REPEATEDLY, THEY WILL WORK AGAIN. TODAY THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT AND I COULDN'T TURN THE WHEEL. AFTER PULLING BACK INTO THE SPOT AND TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON, THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY AND I DROVE HOME. I TOLD MY DAD WHAT IT DID AND HE SAID MY SISTER HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HER SATURN VUE AND SHE HAD TO HAVE HER BODY MODULE (?) REPLACED. HE SAID HERS GOT TO THE POINT THAT THE LIGHTS WOULD TURN OFF AND ON AND SOMETIMES SHE WASN'T ABLE TO START HER CAR. THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY SATURN ION'S STEERING COLUMN AND THEY REPLACED IT AND HAD TO PUT IN A NEW IGNITION ALONG WITH NEW KEYS. I KNOW MY CAR IS OLDER, BUT SINCE MY SISTER'S SATURN VUE HAD THE SAME ODD ELECTRICAL TAKE OVERS, IT MAY BE TOO COMMON OF A PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND HAVE A GOOD DAY. 😊

SINCE HAVING THE RECALLS FOR THE IGNITION DONE - WHEN THE CAR IS PLACED IN PARK I HAVE TO PULL THE SHIFTER TOWARD REVERSE TO GET THE KEY OUT.

IT WAS PERFECTLY FINE BEFORE THE RECALLS FOR THE IGNITION AND SUCH WERE DONE ON MY CAR. LITERALLY THE DAYS AFTER IS WHEN IT STARTED AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IT IS BECAUSE MY CAR IS OLD. NOT BUYING THAT ANSWER. ALL OF THIS HAS TO BE TIED TO A RECALL, I TAKE GREAT CARE OF MY CAR. I JUST HAD THE CONTROL ARMS REPLACED AS WELL AND THE MECHANIC SAID THEY WERE NEAR DISINTEGRATED!

MY GAS PEDDLE STICKS!

STEERING RANDOMLY FAILS IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN, AS IF IT "STICKS" AND I HAVE TO FORCE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK TO CENTER. I'M CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF THE DRIVER HAD TO MAKE AN EVASIVE MENOUVER OR IS INEXPERIENCED AND NOT EXPECTING IT TO FAIL. THIS OCCURS WHILE MOVING, AND WHILE PARKED, ON ANY STREET OR HIGHWAY.
