THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, UPON AVOIDING A COLLISION WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE, THE SATURN SKY I WAS IN HAD COLLIDED WITH THE CONCRETE CENTER DIVIDER AND BECAME AIRBORN. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AFTER FIRST COLLIDING WITH THE DIVIDER, NOR AFTER IT HAD LANDED BACK ONTO ITS WHEELS. HAZARD LIGHTS WERE OPERABLE, ONSTAR DID NOT ACTIVATE. INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED TO BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER. *JS

MY VEHICLE'S AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD IT INSPECTED BY KEYES CHEVROLET, A REGISTERED SATURN SERVICER. HE INFORMED ME THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG MODULE WAS FAULTY AND IT WOULD BE ABOUT 900-1000 DOLLARS TO FIX IT. THEY DIDN'T PRINT ME THE ESTIMATE OR THE PART NUMBER. I WENT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO SAID THE PART WAS INDEED AROUND 500 DOLLARS, BUT THE AIRBAG SENSOR SHOULD NOT BE FAULTY AFTER ONLY 62,000 MILES. MY EXTENDED SERVICE PLAN THROUGH FORD REFUSES TO COVER THIS EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD. IF ANYTHING EVER HAPPENED TO ME OR MY PASSENGER DUE TO THIS ISSUE I WOULD ABSOLUTELY FILE A LAWSUIT. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY NEARLY A THOUSAND DOLLARS TO FIX ESPECIALLY SINCE I AM GOING THROUGH A RECALL RIGHT NOW WITH THE IGNITION- AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS IN, MAY CAR COULD SLIP INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE WHILE IN PARK AND THEY SAID IT WOULD TAKE 2 MONTHS TO GET THE RECALL PARTS IN? THIS IS ALL TERRIFYING AND UNACCEPTABLE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE A SATURN SKY IN THE RECALL AND IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING WE CAN GET A LOANER FOR FREE WHILE WE WAIT FOR PARTS TO COME IN. ORR CHEVROLET IN TEXARKANA SAID ALL THEY HAVE TO LOAN IS COBALTS, AND THIS CONCERNS ME FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. I ASKED IF HE KNEW THOSE ARE ALSO RECALLED AND HE LAUGHED AND SAID YES BUT THAT'S ALL THEY GOT. I SUGGESTED THEY TAKE A VEHICLE OFF THEIR USED SALES LOT THAT ISN'T MADE BY GM BUT THEY CAN'T DO THAT. OBVIOUSLY I DIDN'T TAKE THE EVEN LESS SAFE COBALT AND I'M STILL DRIVING MY SKY, BUT I'M CONCERNED THAT THEY'RE OFFERING THE MOST DEADLY CAR OF THEM ALL AND THAT OTHER DRIVERS MAY END UP TAKING THEM, POSSIBLY FOR MONTHS. *TR

I HAVE HAD 2 SATURN SKY'S, BOTH HAVE RANDOMLY DISABLED THEIR AIRBAGS WHILE DRIVING DUE TO A FAULTY SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. WHEN I WENT ONLINE I FOUND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND EVEN READ NEWS BROADCASTS ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC SENSOR FAILING. THE FOLLOWING WEBSITE IS ONE OF THOSE STORIES. MY DEALERSHIP HAS STATED THAT IT IS NOT A RECALL MATTER. HTTP://WWW.WSMV.COM/STORY/24037545/DEVICES-TRIGGERING-PASSENGER-AIR-BAGS-REPEATEDLY-RECALLED *JS

SERVICE BRAKES
AFTER FIRST STARTING, THE VEHICLE HAS NO BRAKES. THIS ISSUE OCCURRED THE FIRST TIME I BACKED IT OUT OF THE GARAGE. THE BRAKES WERE VERY SOFT AND I HAD TO KEEP PUMPING THEM. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT YOU HAVE TO LET IT WARM UP FIRST. I TOOK THE CAR IN AND TOLD THEM THAT THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE AND COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT. THEY MADE AN ADJUSTMENT TO THE BRAKES, HOWEVER, THEY ARE VERY HARD. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. *TR

PASSENGER SEAT MODULE SENSOR NOT FUNCTIONING (ACCORDING TO WARNING ON DASHBOARD), WHICH IN TURN WILL NOT ACTIVATE THE AIR BAGS IN A VEHICLE COLLISION. I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND WHY GENERAL MOTORS HAS NOT DONE A RECALL ON THIS CONTINUING PROBLEM FOR MOST YEARS OF THE PONTIAC SOLSTICE AND THE SATURN SKY MODELS. THIS IS AN ONGOING MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT GM IS AWARE OF. PLEASE FACILITATE A RESPONSE FROM GM TO RECTIFY THIS URGENT SITUATION. *TR
