AIR BAGS
THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR IN THE SEAT DOES NOT WORK. I HAD THIS ISSUE IN THE PAST, I HAD PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT STILL HAD TO PAY THE $250 DEDUCTIBLE FOR IT TO BE FIXED. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT IT MUST HAVE GOTTEN WET. I CAN TELL YOU AT THAT TIME 100% IT DID NOT GET WET. AND EVEN IF THE SEAT HAD GOTTEN WET (WHICH SOMETIMES THINGS GET SPILLED) IT SHOULD NOT HAVE AFFECTED THE SENSOR I.E IT SHOULD BE INCASED SOMEHOW TO PROTECT IT FROM MOISTURE. I NOW HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN AND THE WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR SOME TIME. I DO NOT HAVE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX THE SENSOR WHICH IS HOW MUCH THE DEALER CHARGES FOR THIS REPAIR, THE VEHICLE BEING 12 YEARS OLD ISN'T EVEN WORTH A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN WHAT IT WOULD COST TO HAVE THE DEALER FIX IT. I HAVE LOOKED INTO THE ISSUE AND THERE AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. GM SHOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THESE SENSORS SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITHOUT CHARGING ITS CUSTOMERS A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY. I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR SINCE IT WAS NEW FOR THE RECORD.

WHEN STARTING THE STABILITRAK LIGHT COMES ON AND THE BUZZER GOES OFF, THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS FLICKERS OFF AND ON. THIS CAUSES A ROUGH IDLE LIKE A MISFIRE .I HAVE HAD PLUGS AND COIL PACKS REPLACED AS WELL AS SHOCKS AND STRUTS. ERROR STILL REMAINS. MECHANIC SAYS ONE ISSUE TRIGGERS THE OTHER. HAVE SEEN 100'S OF OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON FULL SIZE GM TRUCKS AND OTHER SUVS. HOPEFULLY SOON A RECALL ISSUE

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO LOCK OR STALLING WHILE TAKING A TURN. INITIALLY THIS WAS A RARELY OCCURRENCE. SO I WENT TO AN AUTO SHOP TO MAKE SURE THAT STEERING FLUID IS AT ITS PROPER LEVELS; IT WAS. THEN A WEEK LATER, THE STEERING STARTED TO LOCK FREQUENTLY WHILE TAKING A RIGHT OR LEFT TURN. I THEN WENT TO ANOTHER MECHANICAL SHOP FOR A SECOND OPINION AND THEY FOUND NOTHING. JUST YESTERDAY(2/9/2019), MY VEHICLE STARED TO HUM AND THE STEERING WHEEL ONCE AGAIN TRIED TO LOCK ON ME WHILE MAKING ANOTHER TURN AND ALMOST CAUSED ME 2 ACCIDENTS ON A MAJOR ROAD. I WAS THEN TOLD TO LOOK UP TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE AND I FOUND NOTHING BUT I DID FIND THE EXACT SAME ISSUES THAT MY SATURN IS EXPERIENCING CURRENTLY FROM PREVIOUS RECALLS

AIR BAGS
I BOUGHT IT USED AND ITS HAS BEEN SAYING SERVICE AIR BAGS ON THE DASH AND THE LIGHT THAT SAYS ITHE AIR BAG IS ON AND OFF MOSTLY IS IN THE OFF POSITION WHICH IS LOCATED ABOVE THE AIR CONDITIONER PANEL. ALSO O. THE DASH ITS POPS UP THE RED PICTURE OF A PERSON SITTING IN THE FRONT SEATS WITH AN AIR BAG IN FRONT OF THEM FACING THE AIR BAG. THE LIGHT IS STARTING TO GET STUCK ON MEANING MY AIR BAG MAY NOT BE WORKING AT ALL. I AM DRIVING WHEN IT COMES ON AND NOW IT IS ON WHEN I START THE VEHICLE MEANING ITS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY OR AT ALL. I THINK IT COULD BE INVOLVED WITH THIS RECALL ABOUT THE AIRBAG MODULE. THE RECALL NUMBER IS 07V062000
