2007 Saturn Vue Hybrid

THE IGNITION WAS NOT TURNING OVER PROPERLY. THE BATTERY LIGHT WAS ON. THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM CAME ON. THE (ABS) LIGHT CAME ON. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON. I DROVE MY CAR FROM FRESNO TO YOSEMITE AND RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE PARK GARAGE IT BROKE DOWN AND I MANAGED TO ROLL IT OFF THE ROAD AND INTO A STALL. I REQUESTED PROFESSIONAL ADVICE. THE PROFESSIONAL SAID IT APPEARED TO HIM TO BE A FAULTY ALTENATOR, A FAILED ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, AND A BATTERY PROBLEM, AS WELL AS A PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH. THEY DID NOT HAVE THE TOOLS TO EXAMINE THE PRODUCTS, SO INSTRUCTED ME TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER IN THE NEAREST LOCALE. THIS IS A SPECIFIC CAR DEALER IN FRESNO, CA.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON IMMEDIATELY AFTER DRIVING OFF THE LOT. SEVERE ELECTRICAL/COMPUTER ISSUES. THE HYBRID BATTERY WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE HYBRID BATTERY WAS REPLACED BUT WE HAVE CONTINUED TO HAVE ELECTRICAL/COMPUTER PROBLEMS. THE RADIO QUIT WORKING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE IGNITION SWITCH/CORE HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS WE PAID FOR OUT OF POCKET EVEN THOUGH GM KNEW ABOUT SIMILAR IGNITION ISSUES WITH SATURN VUE'S AND OTHER CARS. WE ARE STILL EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE IGNITION. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THE KEY WILL FALL OUT OF THE IGNITION WHILE DRIVING. GM HAS REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THESE ISSUES. THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS ALL COME ON AT RANDOM TIMES. THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS CONTINUED TO ILLUMINATE AT RANDOM TIMES DESPITE OUR BRINGING IT TO GM'S ATTENTION FROM THE MOMENT WE PURCHASED THE CAR. WE REPLACED THE AIRBAG SENSOR BUT THE PROBLEMS HAVE PERSISTED. GM SAYS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE AIRBAGS DESPITE THE AIRBAG LIGHT RANDOMLY COMING ON. RECENTLY THE HYBRID BATTERY HAS STOPPED FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AGAIN. WE FEEL TOTALLY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS CAR AND GM DOESN'T SEEM TO CARE. GM SHOULD PAY FOR ANY AND ALL REPAIRS THAT MAY BE NEEDED. OF COURSE, CONVENIENTLY FOR THEM, THEY SAY THE 8 YEAR/100,000 MILE HYBRID/POWERTRAIN WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE NOT YET REACHED 100,000 MILES. *TR
