2007 Saturn Vue complaints

MY SATURN VUE, YEAR 2007, IS MAKING A SCREECHING SOUND COMING FROM THE AREA OF THE TRANSMISSION ON STARTUP AND GETS LOUDER ON ACCELERATION. THE RPM IS OVERLY AMPED. ON ACCELERATION IF STUTTERS OR FEELS LIKE IT'S SKIPPING BETWEEN GEARS. THIS TAKES PLACE ON STARTING THE CAR TO DRIVING ON CITY STREETS OR THE HIGHWAY.

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS RANDOMLY COMES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000.

2007 SATURN VUE WILL NOT GOT INTO PARK. MAKES A THUMP NOISE WHEN PUT INTO REVERSE AND NO PROBLEMS GOING INTO DRIVE.

AIR BAG LIGHT RANDOMLY ON AND OFF. REPAIR AT GM DEALER AND CONTINUED WITH SAME ISSUE

MY KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT OF IGNITION, HAD TO DRILL OUT IGNITION CYLINDER AND REPLACE HOUSING ALSO. HAD TO GET A MECHANIC TO KEY THE CYLINDER AND NOW THE LIGHTS, A/C, AND RADIO DO NOT WORK AFTER ENGINE STARTS UNTIL IT RUNS FOR ABOUT 8 MINUTES. THEN EVERYTHING WORKS, BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON, THE ENGINE RUNS GOOD, UNTIL IT SITS PARKED OVERNIGHT AND HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE ALTERNATOR. STILL DOING THE SAME. HAD IT PARKED FOR ABOT TWO MONTHS AND JUST START IT AND RUN THE ENGINE TO PRESEVE THE BATTERY. USE OTHER VEHICLE INSTEAD.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON FOR SEVERAL HOURS AT A TIME WHILE I AM DRIVING IT

AIR BAG MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT FOR THE DRIVER IS ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVER IS IN THE SEAT, THE CAR IS ON, AND OPERATING. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO RHYME OR REASON TO WHEN THIS PROBLEM OCCURS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS OR SO.

WHILE PASSING ANOTHER CAR ON US 17A WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON, MY CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE EVEN WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO DECREASE THE SPEED CONTROL AND WHEN I TURNED THE CRUISE CONTROL OFF...DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL SLOWED THE CAR AT THE EXPENSE OF THE BRAKE PADS...I TURNED THE KEY SWITCH OFF.. PULLED OFF THE ROAD RESTARTED THE CAR AND THE ENGINE OVER REVVED AND I TURNED THE KEY OFF AGAIN, ATTEMPTED TO RESTART AGAIN WITH THE SAME RESULTS. STOMPED THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES AND THIS TIME THE RESULTS WERE NORMAL. EITHER THE CRUISE CONTROL OR ACCELERATOR PETAL OR CONTROL MODULE I SUSPECT WERE AT FAULT.....THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY BAD IF WE HAD BEEN IN A HIGH TRAFFIC CONDITION...

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE POWER STEERING WAS LOST MAKING IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE VEHICLE AS THERE WAS NO ELECTRONIC ASSISTED STEERING AT THAT POINT. IN ADDITION, THE DIGITAL COMPONENTS ON THE DASHBOARD (SPEEDOMETER, FUEL GAUGE, ETC.) LOST POWER. THE POWER STEERING WOULD GO OUT INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING MAKING IT VERY DANGEROUS TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE. *TR

TAMARA ( UNKNOWN TO CONSUMER ), I WROTE MANY TIMES ON THIS ISSUE AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY RESPONSE FROM ANYONE. PASSENGER AIRBAG AND SEATBELT ALERT LIGHTS MALFUNCTION. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE VERY EARLY IN DISTRIBUTION OF THIS VEHICLE AS IT WAS ALREADY REPLACED ONCE WITHIN 2 YEARS OF LEAVING SATURN DEALERSHIP IN AUGUST 2006. I CAN ONLY SAY GOD HELP GM IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO A PASSENGER OF MINE DUE TO THIS ISSUE WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS MADE BY MYSELF AND OTHERS AND IT KEEPS ON GOING IGNORED.

MY STEERING IS HARD TO TURN WHEN I START MY CAR, THEN AFTER MESSING WITH THE LOCK AND UNLOCK BUTTON THE STEERING WHEEL RELEASES. THE LIGHTS ON MY DASH START FLASHING IT GOES ON AND OFF. THE FUSES ARE FINE IT'S SOMETHING ELSE. THERE'S NO PLACE TO PUT POWER STEERING FLUID? HELP.

BOTH THE DRIVER SIDE AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATORS COMES OFF AND GOES CONTINUOUSLY. I WONDER WHY THERE WAS A NO RECALL AS SO MANY COMPLAINTS WERE PLACED ALREADY

WE WERE PASSING A TRUCK, THEN THE THROTTLE STUCK AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN , WE FINALLY GOT IT IN NEUTRAL AND PULLED OVER. THIS WAS VERY SCARY. AND NOW MY ELECTRICAL IS ALL MESSED UP. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT. I DON"T HAVE THE MONEY TO GET IT REPAIRED. I NOW HAVE TO TAKE THE BUS OR BUM A RIDE. I PAID $6500 FOR THIS CAR.. ANY CHANCE I CAN GET HELP FROM GM. I REALLY LIKE THE CAR. BUT FEEL IT IS TO DANGER OUS TO DRIVE. I AM A 24 YEAR OLD SINGLE MOM. HELP! THANKS. HANNAH GRISEDALE.

ENGINE MAKES A LOT OF NOISE WHEN STARTING UP AND WHILE DRIVING,ALSO THE GAS GAGE DON'T REGISTER

IGNITION SWITCH ONGOING SAGA. HAD THE SWITCH REPLACED 3 TIMES - ALL AT MY COST ALL WITHIN ONE YEAR. HAD THE KEY HOUSING REPLACED A YEAR 1/2 AGO - KEY NOW HANGING UP AGAIN IN THE IGNITION. LAST NIGHT COULDN'T REMOVE THE KEY AT ALL AND WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO MOVE MY CAR. FORTUNATELY HAPPENED IN MY GARAGE AND NOT A PARKING LOT AT NIGHT WHERE I WOULDN'T BE SAFE. IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER ALL OF THE OTHER KNOWN IGNITION SWITCH RECALLS

I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY KEY IN THE IGNITION SWITCH. IT COMES OUT OF THE IGNITION WHILE THE CAR IS IN PARK AND THE CAR IS STILL RUNNING & IT CAME OUT ONCE WHILE DRIVING. I CAN STILL REMOVE THE KEY IN MODES OTHER THAN DRIVE. MY KEY HAS ALSO GOTTEN STUCK IN THE IGNITION SWITCH & I HAVE TO STRUGGLE WITH THE STEERING WHEEL, ETC TO FREE IT AND/OR TUG ON THE GEAR SHIFT IN ORDER TO GET THE KEY INTO THE PROPER POSITION TO REMOVE IT. ONE TIME I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER GET IT FREE. WELL, REGARDING THE IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE, I HAVE NOT SEEN ANYTHING ABOUT THIS BEING RECALLED, ETC, AFTER DOING RESEARCH ON THIS, BUT FEEL THIS COULD BE SERIOUS AND I WAS WONDERING WHAT DO I DO NEXT, TO FIND OUT ABOUT THIS?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,772.

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

THE AIRBAG LIGHT RANDOMLY COMES ON AND STAYS ON. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL YEARS. IT DOES THIS WHETHER THE CAR IS MOVING, STOPPED, IN REVERSE OR IN PARK.

WHILE MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY I LOST ALL POWER. NO ENGINE, LIGHTS, ETC. ALMOST GOT RUN OVER. OPENED HOOD AND REPLACED THE 30 AMP IGNITION FUSE AND CAR STARTED. TOOK TO GM DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM AND ORIGINAL FUSE WAS NOT BLOWN EITHER. ALSO HARD TO TURN THE IGNITION KEY AT TIMES. IS THIS A RECALL? IF NOT IT SHOULD BE AS THIS WAS A SERIOUS MISHAP WHERE WE COULD HAVEBEEN KILLED! THE CAR HAS 54K MILES AND THIS WAS ON 12-21-2015 AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON 12-22-2015.

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.

I CAN NOT START VEHICLE. I CAN'T PUT IN THE SWITCH TO START VEHICLE EVEN WHEN I TURN WHEEL.

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.

IT THE IGNITION SWITCH. I JUST RECENTLY STARTED PURCHASING A 2007 SATURN VUE. FROM THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT IT, I HAD TROUBLE TURNING THE IGNITION, THEN ABOUT 1 WEEK AGO, IT WOULDN'T TURN AT ALL. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER I AM PURCHASING THROUGH AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE IGNITION SWITCH...BRAND NEW. BUT NOW, THE SAME PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE OCCURRING. THIS PARTICULAR YEAR IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST BUT I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE. I NOTICED THAT MANY OTHER SAUTUN VUE'S FOR 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2008 & 2009 ARE ON THE RECALL LIST FOR THE MALFUNCTIONING IGNITION SWITCH. WISH I HAD DONE MY HOMEWORK BEFORE I STARTED MAKING PAYMENTS.

UPON A COLD START, WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS ROLLED ABOUT TEN FEET, FORWARD OR REVERSE, WITH NO INPUT ON THE ACCELERATOR, THERE IS A WHIR FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, AKIN TO A STEPPER MOTOR NOISE, AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN. IN REVERSE, APPLYING THE BRAKES STOPS THE CAR, AND THEN SELECTING DRIVE, THE VEHICLE RESPONDS TO THE ACCELERATOR CORRECTLY. THE SAME THING HAPPENS IN FORWARD, BUT IN MOST CASES THE ACCELERATOR IS ENGAGED TO MOVE FORWARD. THE PROBLEM DOES NOT SEEM TO OCCUR WHEN THE CAR IS WARMED UP AND BEING DRIVEN UNDER NORMAL USE. IN REVIEWING THE SHOP MANUALS, THERE IS AN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR, WHICH I ASSUME IS A STEPPER TYPE MOTOR, IN THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. THIS IS CONTROLLED BY THE THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL(TAC) AND THE POWER CONTROL MODULE(PCM). I ASSUME THAT THE MOTOR IS FAILING, BUT HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED A REDUCED ENGINE POWER MODE OR ENGINE SHUTDOWN MODE EVENT. IF THIS PART IS FAILING IT SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE EMISSION WARRANTY OF 8 YEARS/80,000 MILES, BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE CAR IS 9 YEARS OLD. I WILL APPROACH MY DEALER AND SATURN ABOUT POSSIBLE COVERAGE UNDER WARRANTY, BUT HAVE HAD DIFFICULTY WITH THEM IN THE PAST. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS IT CAN CATCH A DRIVER UNAWARE AND CREATE A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT SCENARIO.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE ON THE DASHBOARD AT ANY TIME WITH NO APPARENT CAUSE (INCREASE IN ACCELERATE, FAST BREAKING, ETC.) 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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE KEY COULD BE PULLED OUT OF THE IGNITION AT ANYTIME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

THE IGNITION KEY CAN BE REMOVED WHEN THE IGNITION IS NOT IN THE LOCKED POSITION AND THE CAR WAS NOT IN PARK AND STARTED TO ROLL AWAY. THIS CAR 2007 SATURN VUE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AS FOUND IN GM RECALL 14506 WHICH IS STATED AS ONLY FOR 2002-2004 SATURN VUE CARS. THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER FOR THIS RECALL IS 14V490. THE DEALERSHIP SAID MY VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS DEFECT BUT IT IS CLEARLY A MFG DEFECT. I WOULD LIKE THIS RESOLVED AT NO CHARGE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE KEY FAILED TO TURN OVER PREVENTING THE VEHICLE FROM STARTING. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE DEALER REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH FIVE TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED NO REMEDY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 TO 55 MPH, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE PANEL DISPLAYED THAT THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE VIBRATED UNCONTROLLABLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. 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. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE INDICATING THAT THE SYSTEM WAS TURNED OFF ALTHOUGH A PASSENGER WAS SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE FAILURES WERE NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

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.

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. WHILE PARKED AND ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE, THE ENGINE REVVED UNTIL THE VEHICLE STOPPED GOING INTO REVERSE. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON FOUR OTHER OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 71,000. ...UPDATED 10/01/15*BF

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL EXTENDED TO THE FLOORBOARD WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL DEACTIVATED THE CRUISE CONTROL AND DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE SPEED INCREASED TO 80 MPH WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT HAD TO LIFT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WITH HER FOOT, WHICH CAUSED THE SPEED TO DECREASE. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON ONE OTHER OCCASION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

2007 SATURN VUE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT WENT ON AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT HAS TO DO WITH THE HEATED SEAT MALFUNCTIONING. THEY SAY THAT THE AIR BAG WON'T WORK IF THE SEAT DOESN'T WORK ...... THEY SAY IT WILL COST ABOUT $900 TO FIX....... THIS WEEK, WE FOUND OUT THAT THE IGNITION CYLINDER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE CAR IS NOT REGISTERING THE KEYS, AND IT IS NOT ALLOWING THE CAR TO BE STARTED. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS NOW ON AND THE ENGINE IS "RUNNING LEAN" I FEEL THAT THE AIR BAG PROBLEM AND THE IGNITION PROBLEM SHOULD BE UNDER RECALLS FOR SURE

INTERMITTENT DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT. COMES ON FOR A WHILE THEN WILL GO OFF, COULD BE DAYS OR COULD BE HOURS.

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.

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?

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!

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

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THERE WAS A DELAYED RESPONSE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ONLY WHEN TRAVELING DOWN AN INCLINE AT 65 MPH AND GREATER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90. ....UPDATED 07/22/15 *BF UPDATED 9/22/2015 *JS
