ENGINE
I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT ON AN OFF RAMP, AND MY CAR JUST SHUT OFF. WHEN I TRIED TO START IT, IT MADE HORRIBLE NOISES AND WOULD NEVER STAY ON. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT'S POSSIBLY THE TIMING CHAIN. THERE IS A RECALL OF TIMING CHAINS EXCEPT IT'S 120,000 MILES OR 10 YEARS, WHICH COMES FIRST. MY CAR HAS 128,000 MILES ON IT AND IS NOT ELIGIBLE BY 8,000 MILES!!!!! THIS CAR HAS ALREADY HAD TOO MANY PROBLEMS, NOW GM KNOWS THERE IS A TIMING CHAIN ISSUE, THEY SHOULD NOT LIMIT THE REPLACEMENT ON THIS OR ANY OTHER ITEM THAT THEY KNOW IS FAULTY OR WILL BE A PROBLEM FOR ALL 2007 SATURNS. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
DRIVING IN SUB ZERO WEATHER, I DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN MY CAR LOST POWER AND NOW I FIND OUT, IT IS SOMETHING CALLED "LIMP" MODE. CAR WOULD NOT GO MORE THAN 35 MILES PER HOUR AND I HAD MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS COMING ONE. HOW DANGEROUS TO BE ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MILES PER HOUR SEE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND SUDDENLY REALIZE YOU HAVE NO POWER. TRYING TO GET INTO THE OUTER LANE AND GET OFF THE HIGHWAY ALMOST COST ME MY LIFE. I WAS -20 DEGREES OUT THAT DAY. I FOUND THIS LISTED ON A WEB SITE, SOUND LIKE GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM ALREADY. I WORK WITH A GIRL THAT HAS A ACADIA. SHE SAW MY FACEBOOK POST ABOUT MY CAR. SHE WAS ALSO ON THE HIGHWAY THE SAME DAY I WAS AND HERE CAR WAS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING MY WAS. TWO CARS WITH LOSS OF POWER AT THE SAME TIME AND DAY. THIS IS DANGEROUS. HERE IS THE LINK I FOUND REGARDING THIS PROBLEM:HTTP://RICKSFREEAUTOREPAIRADVICE.COM/OIL-IN-AIR-INTAKE-DUCT/ GM HAS ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN TO ADDRESS A PROBLEM WITH OIL IN AIR INTAKE DUCT, ALONG WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, POOR ACCELERATION, AND THROTTLE BODY FREEZING. THE BULLETIN APPLIES TO THE FOLLOWING VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE 3.6L ENGINE: 2008-11 BUICK ENCLAVE, 2007-11 CHEVROLET MALIBU, 2009-11 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE,2007-11 GMC ACADIA,2007-10 PONTIAC G6, 2007-09 SATURN AURA, 2007-10 SATURN OUTLOOK GM STATES THAT THE PROBLEM OCCURS AFTER A COLD START UP OR WHEN DRIVING IN COLD TEMPERATURES. IF YOU SCAN THE PCM, ICE FORMATION IS CAUSED BY CONDENSATION FREEZING AT THE BASE OF THE THROTTLE BODY WITH ADDITIONAL COLLECTION OF ICE FORMATION DEPOSITS IN THE AIR INLET DUCT. FREEZING CONDENSATION FORMS AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN AND THEN PARKED IN LOW AMBIENT TEMPERATURES. OIL DEPOSITS ARE THE COLLECTION OF THE ENGINE VAPORS, FUEL DILUTION AND OIL MIST AT THE BASE OF THE THROTTLE BODY WITH ADDITIONAL FORMATION COLLECTING IN THE DUCT. *TR

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE, TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
-25 F, 2 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME, 7 PM AT NIGHT, TWO KIDS IN THE CAR, AND TREACHEROUS ROAD CONDITIONS ~ TRANSMISSION FAILS !!!! WAS IN THE SHOP LESS THEN TWO WEEKS PRIOR FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT & SERVICE STABILITRAK/TRACTION CONTROL WARNINGS. GM DEALER CLEARED LIGHTS & SAID THEY WERE HISTORIC & NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. THIS PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD & IT ISN'T HUNDRED OF CARS AFFECTED, ITS THOUSANDS AND PROBABLY TENS OF THOUSANDS (AS THESE TRANSMISSIONS PLAGUE THE OUTLOOKS, ACADIAS, TRAVERSES, & ENCLAVES). SO FAR GM IS DOING NOTHING ~ APPARENTLY IT TAKES PEOPLE DYING TO ISSUE MAJOR RECALLS, AND EVEN THEN IT TAKES MANY YEARS AND INVESTIGATIONS BY VARIOUS AGENCIES. UNACCEPTABLE AND CRIMINAL !!!! I HAVE OPENED UP A CASE WITH GM CORPORATE TO SEE IF ANYTHING WILL BE DONE TO OFFSET OR EVEN COVER THE COST OF REPLACING THE JUNK TRANSMISSION ($3800) ~ BUT, AFTER READING COUNTLESS BLOGS, WEBPAGES, ECT OF OTHER PEOPLES EXPERIENCES WITH GM, I AM NOT HOLDING MY BREATH. I WILL CERTAINLY JUMP ON THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WAGON, IF IT EXISTS, OR WHEN IT DOES COME TO FRUITION !!! THIS IS CERTAINLY THE LAST GM PRODUCT I WILL EVER BUY! FURTHERMORE, I WILL TAKE TO SOCIAL MEDIA AND ANY OTHER PLACE I CAN TO TELL MY STORY AND MAKE SURE OTHERS KNOW ABOUT THESE CARS AND THE "SERVICE" THAT GM PROVIDES. *TR

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN
DRIVER WAS ON THEIR WAY TO DR APPT WITH SMALL CHILD WHEN THE CAR REVVED VERY HARD & JERKED & MAKING LOUD NOISES. I THEN WAS ABLE TO GET IT BACK TO PARKING, ONSTAR WAS CALLED AND DIAGNOSING IT AS THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WAS THROWING CODES. A TOW TRUCK CAME AND TOOK THE CAR INTO CAVENDER IN SAN ANTONIO.THEY FOUND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTORS FAILED. THEY FOUND THE WATER PUMP WAS FAILING AS WELL AND REPLACED IT AS WELL. THE NEXT INCIDENT OCCURRED IN MAY OF 2012, MY HUSBAND WAS BEING DISCHARGED FROM THE ARMY & WE WERE ADVISED AFTER WE GOT SETTLED BACK IN OHIO TO HAVE IT SERVICED. IN WHICH WE DID, TO HAVE FOUND THE ENGINE BLOCK HAD A SMALL LEAK. WE TOOK IT TO GM DEALERSHIP DON'S AUTOMOTIVE AS WE HAD A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WORKED THERE. THEY SUPPOSEDLY FIXED IT, THEN NOT EVEN A MONTH WENT BY WE FOUND IT WAS LEAKING. WE THEN DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO DAVE WHITE CHEVROLET TO HAVE IT REPAIRED, THEY EXPLAINED THAT IT WAS NOT REPAIRED RIGHT. THEY THEN FIXED IT. WE THEN HAD IT FIXED AND WERE BACK ON THE ROAD. THEN WE BEGAN TO NOTICE THE REVVING AGAIN AND IT WOULD HESITATE WHEN DRIVING CAUSING PANIC IN HIGH TRAFFIC AREAS FOR MY HUSBAND AND I. WE THEN TOOK IT BACK TO DAVE WHITE TO FIND THERE WAS A SPEED CONTROL SENSOR THAT WAS FAILING. WE THEN HAD TO HAVE THAT REPLACED. NOT TOO LONG AFTER, WE BEGAN TO NOTICE PINK FLUID ON THE DRIVE, WE IMMEDIATE TOOK IT BACK TO DAVE WHITE, THEY EXPLAINED IT WAS LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID, BUT THE COUPLING WAS NOT COVERED BY POWER TRAIN. WE CONTACTED GM BECAUSE THIS SHOULD BE A COVERED PART AS IT COULD CAUSE FAILURE. THEY AGREED TO HELP WITH PAYING FOR IT, BUT DAVE WHITE WAS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. THEN IN NOVEMBER OF 2013, PUTTING IN REVERSE WOULD CAUSE IT TO HESITATE, TRANSMISSION WAS OUT. WE THEN HAD TO HAVE IT REBUILT. THEN FEB 2015, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AS DRIVING AND WOULD NOT PASS 1ST GEAR ON BUSY ROAD. IT WAS TOWED 2/23/15 TO DEALERSHIP MCNEILS. *JS

ENGINE, STEERING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE SHUTS OFF AND THE STEERING COLUMN LOCKS UP. THERE IS A RAPID DECLINE IN SPEED AND THE VOLT METER DROPS TO LESS THEN 11. I HAVE TO HOPE THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND THAT I DO NOT GUIDE THE VEHICLE INTO SOMETHING THAT WILL CAUSE DAMAGE. THE 2008 SATURN OUTLOOK IS AN UNSAFE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE SHUTTING OFF DURING OPERATION ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING IN CITY TRAFFIC, HIGHWAYS AND AT TOLL LOCATIONS INCLUDING BRIDGES AND TUNNELS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS AND CONTACTED GM TO NO AVAIL. IF THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE, THEN THE ISSUE DOES NOT EXIST. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY
PURCHASED THIS 2007 SATURN OUTLOOK IN 2013 USED WITH ONLY AROUND 80K MILES ON IT. THE PREVIOUS OWNER DID TELL US ABOUT THE LEAKING AREAS ONCE THE DRAINS GET CLOGGED, MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN DILIGENT CLEANING THEM, BUT LIVING IN FLORIDA IT RAINS HEAVY ALL THE TIME. WE NOTICED MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY THE INSIDE DRIPPING IN THE 3RD ROW, UNTIL MANY TIMES, UNTIL THIS PAST NOVEMBER IT RAINED HEAVY FOR 2 DAYS AND THE WATER STARTED COMING THRU WHAT SEEMED TO BE FROM THE AC VENTS ON BOTH ROWS, AND THROUGH THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WALLS VERY HEAVY, UPON LEAVING WORK WENT TO TURN OFF THE CAR TOOK KEYS OUT TWICE AND IT WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. SO NOW THERE IS THE ELECTRICAL AREAS BEING SOAKED, LET IT DRY OUT CLEANED DRAINS AGAIN, AND IT JUST SEEMS THE MORE RAIN WE HAVE THE MORE WATER COMES IN. RIGHT NOW CAR IS IN GARAGE SINCE WE HAD THE SAME SITUATION WITH RAIN AND NOW IT IS DRIPPING FROM EVERYWHERE.. AFRAID TO DRIVE CAR SINCE WE KNOW THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND WIRES ARE WET. I HAVE A TODDLER WHOM I HAD TO COVER WITH A TOWEL CAUSE WATER WAS DRIPPING ON HER. GM NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS, BEFORE IT CAUSED A FIRE AND COULD CAUSE DEATH TOO. THIS SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING TO TOO MANY FAMILIES.. WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR??? *TR

POWER TRAIN
DRIVING WHEN THE CAR JERKED AND REVED AND THEN WENT SQUEALING AWAY. GOING 40 MPH AND CARS BEHIND WERE NOT FOLLOWING CLOSELY. THIS HAPPENED FOR ABOUT 50 FEET AND THEN THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE - REVERSE AND D AND L WOULD NOT WORK. WE WERE IN A CITY FOR AN AUDITION FOR COLLEGE ADMISSION WHICH WAS 400 MILES FROM HOME. WE HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A NEARBY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TRANSMISSION IS GONE. NEEDED TO RENT A CAR TO RETURN HOME AND WILL NOW HAVE TO FLY BACK TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE AGAIN AFTER PAYING $4400. WE WERE LUCKY THAT NOTHING HAD HAPPENED WHEN WE WERE ON THE INTERSTATE OR DRIVING AROUND THE CITY AND CAMPUS. ALSO, FORUNATE THAT WE MADE IT TO THE AUDITION. THIS IS A FAMILY CAR USUALLY CARRYING KIDS AND ANIMALS. BESIDES THE REPAIR BILLS, THE VEHICLE IS JUNK BECAUSE NO ONE WOULD WANT TO BUY THIS. THE $4400 TO BRING THE VEHICLE HOME AND WAIT FOR THE NEXT THING TO HAPPEN LIKE THE POWER STEERING ISSUE. THIS CAR WAS A LARGE PURCHASE AND VERY SAD TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE TO KEEP INVESTMENTING MONEY IN IT OR JUNK IT. THIS NEEDS TO BECOME WIDESPREAD AND DEFINITELY A RECALL BEFORE SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
BOUGHT THIS PIECE OF CRAP CAR OUT OF DESPERATION FROM A PAY AS YOU GO RIP OFF CAR "DEALERSHIP" WHO TOLD ME NOTHING ABOUT THIS CARS FAULTS AND IT'S DONE NOTHING BUT BITE ME IN THE ASS SINCE THEN. LEAKS LIKE A STUCK PIG, CAUSING WATER TO POOL AT THE FLOOR MATS, WHEN ITS COLE THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD FROSTS. HEADLIGHTS WILL BOTH SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING, BATTERY DIED SO I CHARGED IT THEN THE RADIO WENT HAYWIRE. OPENED UP THE BATTERY TERMINAL TO FIND MY BATTERY WAS ENCASED IN ICE DUE TO THE LEAKY SUNROOF, THE BATTERY WAS SPARKING AND SMOKING. WINDOWS WON'T GO DOWN ALL OF A SUDDEN. I CAN'T WAIT TO GET RID OF THIS CAR. NEVER AGAIN. SO DANGEROUS IT'S RIDICULOUS. *JS

AIR BAGS, STEERING, SEATS
I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 SATURN OUTLOOK WHEN THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AND I WENT OFF THE ROAD HITTING A CULVERT HEAD ON. THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER SEAT ON IMPACT BROKE OFF OF THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY THING THAT SAVED MY LIFE WAS MY SEATBELT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP AND AFTER THEY HOOKED IT UP TO THEIR DIAGNOSTICS, THEY FOUND THAT THERE WAS A MISTAKE IN THE SENSOR CODES. THE CODE SHOWED THAT THE VEHICLE ROLLED OVER. THE VEHICLE NEVER DID ROLL OVER WHATSOEVER. ALSO THE POWER STEERING PUMP WAS DEFECTIVE AND LATER A RECALL CAME OUT INFORMING OWNERS OF THIS. AFTER RESEARCH I FOUND THAT PREVIOUSLY THERE WAS A RECALL FOR A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG MODULE. THIS HAD BEEN REPLACED. HOWEVER THE AIRBAG STILL DID NOT DEPLOY DURING THE FRONT IMPACT COLLISION. *JS

DRIVING HOME FROM THE STORE WHEN ENTERING A DANGEROUS INTERSECTION MY TRANSMISSION GAVE OUT. LUCKILY I HAD ENOUGH SPEED TO MAKE IT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. UPON TAKING MY VEHICLE TO TWO DIFFERENT REPAIR SHOPS, I WAS TOLD I WOULD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE WAVE PLATE SHATTERED AND PIECES WERE NOW IN MY TRANSMISSION. I CALLED GM TO GET SOME FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE SINCE MY VEHICLE HAD SUCH LOW MILEAGE. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL. AFTER SPEAKING TO THE OWNER OF THE TRANSMISSION SHOP AND DOING SOME ONLINE INVESTIGATING, IT APPEARS THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE WAVE PLATE IN THEIR SATURN OUTLOOK OR GM ACADIA. I FEEL THE WAVE PLATE IS DEFECTIVE AND THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE PUT IN PLACE SO NO ONE ELSE GETS HURT FROM THEIR TRANSMISSION GIVING OUT ON THEM. *JS

THE DAY BEFORE WHEN MY WIFE WAS PULLING OUT OF THE GARAGE, WE HEARD A POPPING SOUND. WE JUST KIND OF GAVE EACH OTHER A LOOK, NOT SURE WHAT IT WAS. SHE NOTICED SOME HESITATION IN ACCELERATION THAT DAY. 2 DAYS LATER, WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING THE KIDS TO SCHOOL, THE CAR STARTED TO MAKE A REVVING SOUND, LIKE WHAT KIDS WOULD MAKE WHILE PRETENDING TO DRIVE. THEN WHEN SHE TURNED AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE, THE ENGINE RPM'S WOULD GO UP BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE. SHE TURNED IT OFF AND THEN BACK ON AND LIMPED HOME. TRIED TO REVERSE INTO GARAGE BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T GO IN REVERSE. NOW IT'S SITTING ON THE STREET IN FRONT OF THE HOUSE. *TR
