SEATS, AIR BAGS
PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE-SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING IS ACTIVATED AND COMES ON PERIODICALLY DUE TO A DEFECTIVE SENSOR WHICH RESULTS IN AIR BAG NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY OR BEING DEPLOYED IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY CONCERN THAT GM IS AWARE OF AND HAS BEEN RECALLED IN OTHER MODEL CARS EXCEPT FOR THE SATURN SKY AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND ONE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY RECALL. *TR

I RECEIVED NOTICE THAT MY VEHICLE HAD BEEN RECALLED AND CONTACTED MY DEALER "AIRPORT CHEVROLET" IN MEDFORD OREGON FOR AN APPOINTMENT TO GET IT REPAIRED. IT HAS NOW BEEN ABOUT TWO MONTHS AND THE DEALER IS STILL CLAIMING THAT THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE NECESSARY PARTS. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT GENERAL MOTORS IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET, TWO MONTHS IS LONGER THAN IT TAKES TO RECEIVE A SPECIAL ORDER CAR. *TR

AIR BAGS
2007 SATURN SKY 25000 MILES I JUST TOOK MY SKY INTO THE DEALER FOR THE IGNITION RECALL, AND WHILE THERE I HAD THEM RUN DIAGNOSTIC TEST ON MY AIRBAG SYSTEM AT THE COST OF 113 DOLLARS. IT HAD CODE B0081 ( PASSENGER PRESENT MODULE FAILURE). THIS I EXPECTED FROM READING ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS THAT HAVE BEEN FILED. I HAVE READ COMPLAINTS ON OTHER SATURN FORUMS, WHERE SOME PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM REPAIRED AT THEIR OWN EXPENSE (1000 DOLLARS), JUST TO HAVE IT RETURN IN LESS THAN A YEAR. I DON?T THINK THE PUBLIC SHOULD HAVE TO PAY SUCH AN EXPENSE FOR A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE HANDLED AS A SAFETY RECALL. THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FILED ON THIS SAME PROBLEM. *TR

AT TIMES THE PASSENGER AIR BAG INDICATOR SHOWS OFF WHEN A PASSENGER IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS. MOST OF THE TIME THE INDICATOR IS ON WHEN A PASSENGER IS IN THE CAR AND WHEN THE INDICATOR IS OFF I HAVE TRIED TO DRIVE TO THE NEAREST SATURN DEALER BUT THE INDICATOR THEN SHOWS ON WHEN I GET TO THE DEALER(WHICH WAS 50 MILES AWAY). FINALLY WHEN THE RECENT GM IGNITION SWITCH RECALL DIRECTED ME TO A CLOSER GM DEALER I BROUGHT MY CAR IN AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE AIR BAG ISSUE. FOR TWO DAYS THEY COULD NOT GET THE AIR BAG INDICATOR TO SHOW OFF WITH A PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, HOWEVER ON THE THIRD DAY THE INDICATOR SHOWED OFF. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE AIR BAG SENSOR IN THE SEAT. TO REPLACE THE PART($500.00) AND LABOR COST IT WOULD COST ME $800.00. THEY TOLD ME OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, I FEEL THIS SHOULD ALSO BE A RECALL ITEM. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKES/ VACUUM DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE. TOOK IT TO GM FOR A FEW ADJUSTMENTS (WHICH DID NOT WORK) AND THEY SAY THAT THE CAR MUST BE WARMED UP FOR 1 MINUTE OR MORE BEFORE DRIVING. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE LIVING IN WARM WEATHER CLIMATE. WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO WAIT TO DRIVE A NEW CAR IN ORDER FOR THE BRAKES TO WORK AND BE SAFE. IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE AND NOW I CANNOT LET ANYONE DRIVE MY CAR, OR GO TO A VALET IN FEAR THAT THEY WILL HIT SOMETHING OR SOMEONE. *TR

MY AIRBAG SENSOR QUIT WORKING. AT THIS LOW MILEAGE THERE SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. NOW MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I'M FORCED TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED OUT OF POCKET. FROM MY RESEARCH THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE. I ENCOURAGE THE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE AND HAVE GM RECALL VEHICLES WITH A SIMILAR ISSUE. IT IS FOR THE SAFETY OF THE PUBLIC. *TR

THE SATURN SKY WAS PURCHASED WITH A FAILED SENSOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT FOR THE AIRBAG. UPON RESEARCH I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE SATURN SKY AND PONTIAC SOLSTICE. IT AFFECTS MULTIPLE YEARS AND GM HAS KNOWN ABOUT IT SINCE IT STARTED HAPPENING. YET UPON REVIEW THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUED FOR THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE IN REGARDS TO THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGER IN A TWO SEAT CAR. GM IS NOW ISSUING RECALLS FOR ALMOST EVERYTHING AND I HAVE READ MULTIPLE REPORTS TO YOUR ORGANIZATION IN REGARDS TO THE AIRBAG SENSOR PROBLEM, BUT GM DOES NOTHING. WHEN IS THIS ISSUE GOING TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY? I WISH I HAD THE STATISTICS ON HOW MANY HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED DUE TO THIS FAILED SENSOR SO I COULD INCLUDE THAT. *TR
