AIR BAG ACTIVATION IS MALFUCTIONING. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS DESIGNED TO ACTIVATE WHEN SOMEONE SITS IN THE SEAT. IT IS NOT DOING SO.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON IN THE CAR DURING A TRIP WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THERE IS AN INTERNAL FAULT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT SUPPRESSION MODULE ACCORDING TO THE LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP. THIS RESULTS IN NO DEPLOYMENT OF EITHER OF THE AIRBAGS IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT/CRASH. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE COST TO REPLACE THIS MODULE IS NEARLY $800.

GM 2009 SATURN SKY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SEAT OCCUPANCY SENSOR HAS PREMATURELY GONE BAD AT 14,000 MILES. LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SYSTEM IS DISABLED. THIS IS THE SAME SENSOR AS THE GM CADILLAC CTS WHICH HAS A RECALL, BUT THE SATURN SKY DOES NOT. I HAVE TAKEN TO A GM DEALER, TESTED AND THEY SAY THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY WITH THE BLADDER SENSOR BAD. ON THE SATURN SKY FORUM, THIS IS HAPPENING TO MOST ALL SATURN SKY'S AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE CARS (WHICH ARE OUT OF PRODUCTION) BUT THIS IS STILL A SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULD HATE TO THINK OF AN ACCIDENT OCCURRING AND GM AND THE NHTSA KNOWING OF THIS ISSUE FROM NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS SINCE 2014 AND STILL NOT RECALLED AS OF TODAY MAY 26, 2016! GM WAITED TOO LONG ON THE KEY ISSUE, THEY SHOULD NOT WAIT ON THE AIR BAG SENSOR ISSUE AS THE CADILLAC CTS CURRENTLY HAS A RECALL!

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT HAS JUST COME ON, ON MY 2007 SATURN SKY. AFTER GETTING THE ERROR CODE SCANNED AIR BAG CODE B0081. I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM. AFTER SPEAKING TO THE GM SERVICE MANAGER AND MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE AND DOING SOME RESEARCH, I QUICKLY LEARNED THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND ISSUE FOR THE 2007 SATURN SKY AS WITH THE CADILLAC CTS AND KIA. BOTH VEHICLES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE. BASED ON THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SAFETY SYSTEM. WHY HAS NO RECALL BEEN ISSUED TO SOLVE THIS MALFUNCTIONING SYSTEM?

PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY. DID SOME RESEARCH, APPEARS THIS IS A "COMMON PROBLEM" WITH ALL THE SKY/SOLSTICE CARS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE SEAT SENSOR. MY CAR IS A LOW MILEAGE, GARAGE KEPT CAR WITH ONLY 42K MILES ON IT. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. ALSO, IF OTHER MAKES AND MODELS HAVE HAD THIS AIRBAG SENSOR RECALLED, WHY HAS GM NOT RECALLED THE SKY/SOLSTICE; ARE THE PASSENGERS SAFETY NOT AS IMPORTANT IN OUR CARS?

TAKATA RECALL I STARTED THE 2008 SATURN SKY WITH SOMEONE SEATED IN PASSENGER SEAT ,AIR BAG LIGHT SAID AIRBAG WAS OFF FOR PASSENGER SIDE AND SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK TO GM DEALER AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS BAD MODULE AND WOULD COST $936.62 TO FIX. I DID HAVE IT FIXED AND PAID THE $936.62 FOR SAFETY SAKE. THIS ISSUE REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND ON RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED.

MY 2009 SATURN SKY, WITH LESS THAN 50,000 MILES, DISPLAYED THE "SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHT IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ON 5/8/16 FOR NO REASON. THE AIR BAGS HAVE NEVER DEPLOYED, AND THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. I AM TAKING IT TO AN AUTHORIZED GM DEALER, BUT THIS COST AND PROBLEM IS ABSURD FOR A CAR WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND GARAGE KEPT.

I GET A "SERVICE AIR BAG" MESSAGE WHEN I START THE CAR. THIS WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED IN 2011 AFTER I GOT THE SAME MESSAGE AT THAT TIME. THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG AND IT HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED AS THE AIR BAG SENSOR MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I UNDERSTAND FROM WEB SEARCHES THAT THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING OFTEN FOR THIS MODEL OF THE SATURN SKY.

TYPICAL ENGINEERED PROBLEMS @ LOW MILEAGE: SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR, DASH INFO LIGHTS, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND EXTREMELY NOISY AC SYSTEM. A RECALL WOULD BE NICE, BUT THE CAR IS AN ORPHAN. (A DISCONTINUED VEHICLE, WITH LITTLE SUPPORT.) SAFE AT ANY SPEED ?

SERVICE BRAKES
I STARTED MY 2008 SATURN SKY AND WHILE BACKING THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE I ALMOST HIT THE GARAGE BECAUSE THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO POWER ASSIST ON THE BRAKES UPON STARTUP. I HAVE SEEN THAT THERE SI A TSB OUT ON THIS FOR CARS SITTING EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. THIS CAR ONLY SITS OVERNIGHT AT MOST. THIS IS NOT A ONE OFF EVENT. IF MY WIFE OR DAUGHTER WERE DRIVING THE CAR THEY WOULD DEFIANTLY HIT SOMETHING BECAUSE OF THEIR INABILITY TO APPLY ENOUGH PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE THIS COULD EASILY LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT .
