2006 Saturn Vue

CAN NOT TURN ON OR OFF PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG USING THE BUTTON IN ABOVE THE RADIO AND THE LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD TURNS ON EVERY TIME I PUT SOMETHING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. EVEN IF IT'S A BOTTLE OF WATER MY VUE IS A V6 AUTOMATIC WITH THE HONDA ENGINE, BUT THE TRANSITION BETWEEN GEARS IS NOT SMOOTH AT ALL IT FEELS MORE LIKE IT'S JERKING INTO GEAR. WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN PARK. I'M KNOW ONE DAY I'M GOING TO WALK UP TO IT AND IT WON'T BE THERE BECAUSE IT WILL HAVE ROLLED AWAY. MY VUE ROLLS BACK N FORTH IN PARK ON FLAT SURFACES. SO ON A HILL IT'S SCARRY. IT ROLLS MORE THAN MY OLD CAR THAT DIDN'T EVEN HAVE ANTI LOCK BREAKS. AND A LOT OF THE TIME USING THE E-BREAK DOSNT HELP ALL THAT MUCH

PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE AROUND 2008 (MAYBE SOONER). THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WILL COME ON WHILE DRIVING, AND TURN OFF/ON AT RANDOM WHILE DRIVING AT ALMOST ANY SPEED. I'VE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES AND REPORTED THE PROBLEM, AND EACH TIME THAT ARE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A CONSTANT ISSUE, YET THE DEALER CAN NEVER FIND AN ERROR CODE ON THE COMPUTER OR REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM, EVEN WHEN THEY KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR MULTIPLE DAYS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SATURN VUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT DELAYED TO ILLUMINATE APPROXIMATELY TEN MINUTES AFTER THE SEAT WAS OCCUPIED. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 97,000. MA 08/13/15 THE CONSUMER STATED THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE DASH DID NOT COME ON ALL THE TIME. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES AFTER DRIVING AND THE SPEED HAS REACHED 30 MPH. THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE AIR BAGS INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATE AT DIFFERENT TIMES. UPDATED 12/1/2015 *JS

I WAS DRIVING AND A TRUCK STOPPED IN FRONT OF ME VERY QUICKLY I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO STOP. I HIT THE BACK END OF THE TRUCK. WHICH HAD THE TAILGATE LOWERED . THE TAIL GATE WENT THROUGH THE WHOLE FRONT END OF MY CAR . COMPLETELY TOTALING MY CAR . AS A RESULT MY LEG WAS PINNED I SUFFERED A CONCUSSION AND WHIPLASH AS I HIT MY HEAD ON THE STARING WHEEL . MY AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY DRIVER OR PASSENGER SIDE . THE INDICATOR LIGHT ON THE DASH SAID THE AIR BAG WAS OFF FOR PASSENGER SIDE . I HAD A PASSENGER IN THE CAR AND NEITHER AIR BAG CAME OUT CAUSING SERIOUS DAMAGE TO MY HEAD AND NECK

I HAD JUST DROPPED OFF A CO-WORKER WHEN MY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT LIGHT CAME BACK ON WITH NO ONE IN THE SEAT. I WENT DOWN THE ROAD A FEW MILES AND THE LIGHTS WENT OFF. I WENT A LITTLE FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THEY CAME BACK ON AGAIN. THE NEXT DAY THE SAME THING HAPPENED EXCEPT THIS TIME THE LIGHTS REMAINED ON UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE SO FAR, THE FIRST TIME MARCH 4, 2015, AND THE SECOND INCIDENT ON MARCH 5, 2015. I HAVE HAD PASSENGERS IN THE SEAT BEFORE WITHOUT THE LIGHT COMING BACK ON AFTER THEY HAVE GOTTEN OUT. THIS IS A NEW PROBLEM THAT I HAVE JUST RECENTLY EXPERIENCED. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE FIVE MONTHS SO I DO NO KNOW IF THIS HAS HAPPENED PRIOR TO ME OWNING IT. I WILL BE TAKING IT TO A GARAGE TO BE CHECKED OUT IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN TO TRY AND DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 SATURN VUE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE SEAT BELT AND AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WAS NOT ACTIVATED WHEN THE SEAT WAS OCCUPIED. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,000.

I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM!!!! SOMETIMES THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT TURN ON AND THE LIGHT ON THE DASH SAYS THE AIRBAG IS OFF WHEN A PERSON IS SITTING THERE. I FOUND THAT IF YOU UNBUCKLE YOUR SEAT BELT AND GET OUT AND BACK INTO THE SEAT IT SOMETIMES RESETS THE LIGHT. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE POSTED THE SAME UNSAFE CONDITION. SEE-- "ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE STARTED TO BECOME INCONSISTENT IN ITS ON/OFF STAGES. WE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST THE AGE OF THE CAR, BUT SATURN IS NO LONGER IN EXISTENCE, SO WE FELT THERE WASN'T MUCH WE COULD DO. AFTER READING SOME OF THE RECENT COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 2006 VUE (ON THIS SITE), WE FELT IT NECESSARY TO ADVISE THAT WE ALSO HAVE SIMILAR EXPERIENCES WITH THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT FOR PASSENGER SIDE." DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAG WILL WORK? *TR
