SEATS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BROUGHT MY SATURN SKY THAT WAS MANUFACTURED BY GM TO MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE MODULE IS NOT ON RECALL ALTHOUGH MANY OTHER MODELS THAT GM MAKES DID AND DOES HAVE A RECALL FOR THE SAME PRODUCT. I WILL NO LONGER LET ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I WOULD HOPE THAT SOMEONE WOULD FORCE GM TO DO WHAT THEY HAVE DONE FOR ALL THEIR OTHER MAKES AND MODELS. IF SOMEONE GETS HURT OR POSSIBLY KILLED I WILL HAVE TO BE FORCED TO SUE SOMEONE. THEY SAY THE PROCESS COSTS $900 AND I THINK IF ANYTHING THEY SHOULD PAY FOR AT LEAST THE PARTS. HOW CAN THEY RECALL OTHER MODELS AND NOT THIS MODEL?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I WOULD LIKE TO NOTIFY THE NHTSA AS WELL AS GM THAT THE RECENT HUMMER RECALL DOES NOT INCLUDE VEHICLES THAT SHARE SOME OF IT'S COMPONENTS THAT ARE BEING RECALLED CURRENTLY. IT ALSO EFFECTS THE CHEVROLET COLORADO, GMC CANYON TRUCKS. AS WELL AS THE VEHICLE I DRIVE WHICH IS THE SATURN SKY AND IT'S IDENTICAL PONTIAC SOLSTICE. THE SKY/SOLSTICE HAS THE SAME HVAC UNIT AND WIRING HARNESS THAT IS BEING RECALLED DUE TO FIRE RISKS IN THE HUMMER. I HAVE CALLED MY LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THERE ARE NO ACTIVE RECALLS FOR MY SKY. IN ORDER TO GET THE REVISED PART THAT IS BEING INSTALLED IN THE HUMMERS, IT WOULD COST ME $150 OUT OF POCKET WITHOUT LABOR. BEING THAT THIS IS MY ONLY VEHICLE FOR WORK AND SCHOOL, I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY DUE TO THE FACT THAT THIS IS A LOW VOLUME VEHICLE IN COMPARISON TO THE HUMMER AND IT WILL BE IGNORED BY BOTH GM AND NHTSA. I BELIEVE IF ONE VEHICLE GETS RECALLED FOR A PARTICULAR COMPONENT, IT IS THE JOB OF BOTH GM AND NHTSA TO SEE IF SAID COMPONENTS WERE USED IN OTHER VEHICLES, TO WHICH GM DID FOR 4 OTHER VEHICLES; COLORADO, CANYON, SKY, AND SOLSTICE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. PLEASE NOTE THIS COMPLAINT IS SIMPLY TO NOTIFY, MY CAR HAS NOT CAUGHT FIRE, BUT I DO KNOW THAT MY A/C IS ACTING ODD LATELY AND I AM WORRIED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS THAT IS BEING IGNORED.

JUST DRIVING OUT OF PARKING LOT AND SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH A VERY SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF OTHER PONTIAC SOLSTICE AND SATURN SKY OWNERS SHARE THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS APPARENTLY A $1000 FIX FOR A KNOWN DESIGN DEFECT. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.

MY 2008 SATURN SKY ONLY HAS 44,000 MILES ON IT. I BOUGHT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT BECAUSE I GARAGE IT IN BAD WEATHER IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I AM PAYING 1100.00 THIS WEEK TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT I AM PAYING FOR SOMETHING THIS IMPORTANT WHEN THE CAR STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL TIRES ON IT BECAUSE IT IS SO WELL TAKEN CAR OF. THE ONLY REASON I AM PAYING THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE IMPORTANCE OF SAFETY AND THIS SHOULD BE A GM PROBLEM NOT MINE. SHAME ON GM, SINCE OTHER CARS WITH THIS ISSUE HAVE BEEN RECALLED.

INITIAL INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE I HAD A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT RIGHT SEAT DRIVING AT 35 MPH. THREE BEEPS FROM AND A 'SERVICE AIR BAG' WARNING MESSAGE DISPLAYED ON MY DASH. AFTER STOPPING AND SHUTTING OFF MY CAR, THE WARNING DID NOT APPEAR WHEN I STARTED IT AGAIN. EXACTLY TWO WEEKS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN RIDING WITH A PASSENGER, BUT THIS TIME THE WARNING DID NOT GO AWAY AFTER RESTARTING MY VEHICLE. NOW, THE WARNING COMES UP EVERY TIME I START MY VEHICLE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH SATURN SKY AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE MODELS. AS IT RELATES TO PASSENGER SAFETY, SHOULD IMMEDIATELY BE RECALLED.

I WAS PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY WHEN I NOTICED THE WARNING LIGHT TO "SERVICE AIRBAGS" I WENT TO THE DEALER WHO SAID IT IS NOT A RECALL SO FAR. THEY WANTED $110.00 JUST TO CHECK FOR THE PROBLEM, BUT DID NOT INCLUDE LABOR IF NEEDED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL FREE TO OWNERS!!

THE SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT FAILED, GIVING AN AIRBAG WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT. NOBODY WAS IN THE SEAT AND IT WAS NOT BEING USED AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE. THIS IS THE SECOND 2007 GM VEHICLE I HAD THAT FAILED AT AROUND THE 40,000 MILE MARK FOR THE SAME PART. THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE. I'VE READ ABOUT MANY SATURN SKY AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE OWNERS HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. DEALER REFUSES TO REPAIR AS VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY BY MONTHS, NOT MILES.
