POWER TRAIN
WAS ON INTERSTATE 97 IN MARYLAND DOING AROUND 65 MPH. WHEN I HEARD AND FELT LOUD POP NOISE FROM THE REAR OF THE 2007 SATURN SKY AND PULLED ONTO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY WHILE THE CARS ON THE ROAD WERE FLYING BY ME AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED ( THAT I WAS SCARED TO GET OUT OF THE CAR ) DID GET THE CAR HOME AND CONTACTED SATURN ( WHAT A WASTE OF TIME ) TO TRY AND GET SOME TYPE OF HELP ON THE REPAIR. TOOK CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALER JBA CHEVROLET AND WAS TOLD THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAD BLOWN OUT AND THE REPAIR COULD BE BETWEEN $2800-$3500. I HAVE SEEN ON THE WEB SITES THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS TYPE OF REAR IN SATURN AND OTHER GM CARS. I'M LUCKY THAT THE REAR DID NOT LOCK UP THIS COULD OF BEEN A BIG PROBLEM. PLEASE PASS THIS ON. *TR

I JUST BOUGHT THIS SATURN AND THE NEXT WEEK THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE HAVE COMPLAINED AND IT IS EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF PEOPLE WITH THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND SAYING IT SHOULD BE RECALLED. I AGREE BECAUSE THERE WAS NO REASON FOR IT TO NEED SERVICED YET. *TR

AIR BAG PASSENGER PRESENT MODULE IN PASSENGER SEAT HAS FAILED GIVING AN ERROR CODE. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM ON SATURN SKYS AS THE FORUMS HAVE SEVERAL REPORTS OF SIMILAR FAILURES. I SEE THAT BMW HAS JUST ISSUED A RECALL FOR THESE SENSORS. THE SATURN SKY AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE SHOULD ALSO BE RECALLED. *TR

IN 2009, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR BEGAN TO INTERMITTENTLY FAIL TO DETECT THE PRESENCE OF A PASSENGER. THE PASSENGER RESTRAINT LIGHT SOMETIMES REGISTERED "OFF", EVEN WHEN PASSENGER WAS PRESENT. BECAUSE IT WAS INTERMITTENT, THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. IN 2014, THE FAILURE BECAME EVER-PRESENT, WITH ADDITIONAL WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD, THE DRIVER INFORMATION SYSTEM, AND AN AUDIBLE WARNING CHIME ON IGNITION START. REPEATED CALLS TO GM HAVE HAD NO RESULTS. THE COMPANY LINE IS THAT THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND THE PRODUCT LINE HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED. THE COST OF REPAIR IS SUBSTANTIAL, APPROACHING $1,000, FOR AN AIRBAG SENSOR MODULE LOCATED BENEATH THE PASSENGER SEAT. ALTHOUGH A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE 2007 SATURN SKY AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE CARS, GM SAYS THAT THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE DESERVING A RECALL. *TR

THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR HAS FAILED. IF YOU DO RESEARCH YOU WILL SEE A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF SATURN SKY'S AND IT'S SISTER PLATFORM CAR THE PONTIAC SOLSTICE HAS HAD NUMEROUS FAILURES DUE TO A DEFECTIVE SENSOR MODULE. OTHER MANUFACTURES THAT USE THE SAME MODULE (LIKE BMW) HAVE ISSUED RECALLS ON THIS SAFETY ISSUE. IF YOU COMPEL GM TO PROVIDE YOU WITH THE NUMBER OF REPAIRS THEY HAVE DONE ON THESE CARS YOU WILL SEE THAT THE FAILURE IS WIDE SPREAD AND HAPPENS EVEN ON LOW MILEAGE RARELY USED CARS. GM SHOULD HAS FAILED TO RESPOND TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE FORCED TO DO A RECALL ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SEAT SENSOR. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR IN MY VEHICLE FAILED SHORTLY (2 MOS) AFTER ITS 'BUMPER-TO-BUMPER' WARRANTY EXPIRED. ANY PASSENGER IN THE CAR FACES ADDED RISK IF AN ACCIDENT WERE TO OCCUR. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE OWNER'S COST TO FIX THIS ITEM IS PROHIBITIVE ($500 - $800), AND THAT THE EARLY FAILURE OF THIS PART IS SOMEWHAT COMMON FOR THIS VEHICLE.

I PURCHASED A 2009 SATURN SKY FROM A GILLMAN CHRYSLER/JEEP/ RAM A HOUSTON DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON WHEN I TEST DROVE. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BUT AS OF NOW, IT HAS NOT. I TALKED DIRECTLY TO CHEVROLET BUT CHEVROLET WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH THIS HAS OCCURRED MANY TIMES PRIOR ON THE SAME CAR. THIS SHOULD OBVIOUSLY BE A RECALL. PLEASE DON'T WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO DIE BEFORE YOU REACT. *TR

5/14/12 46222 MILES VEHICLE INDICATED A "SERVICE AIR BAG" WARNING - TOOK VEHICLE TO COVERT BUICK DEALERSHIP SERVICE FOR DIAGNOSIS. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE PASSENGER PRESENT MODULE WAS FAULTY AND IT WAS REPLACED. 2/10/15 84300 MILES VEHICLE IS AGAIN SHOWING "SERVICE AIR BAG" WARNING. AGAIN PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER PRESENT MODULE. IT WAS CONVEYED THAT IF THIS MODULE IS NOT IN WORKING ORDER THE PASSENGER AIR BAG MAY NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THIS MODULE IS POORLY MADE TO HAVE ANOTHER FAILURE IN LESS THAN 40,000 MILES. THE PASSENGER SEAT ON THIS CAR IS USED VERY INFREQUENTLY, NO SPILLS OF ANY KIND. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS PART. GM SHOULD TAKE ACTION TO AVOID INJURY OR FATALITY AT THEIR HANDS. THANK YOU *TR
