2007 Saturn Vue

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC WHO PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST THAT CONFIRMED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 14V118000 (AIR BAGS). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 103,000...UPDATED 06/17/14 *BF UPDATED 8/23/2017*CN

MY PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED TO COME ON PERIODICALLY, WHETHER SOMEONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT OR NOT. AT TIMES IT WOULD GO OFF, BUT FOR THE PAST 30 DAYS IT STAYS ON WHETHER SOMEONE IS IN THE SEAT OR NOT. ABOUT THE SAME TIME, WE DETECTED A "SHORT" IN THE RADIO SYSTEM, AS AT TIMES YOU CANNOT CHANGE THE STATION, AND I HAVE ACTUALLY HAD THE STATION CHANGE WITHOUT TOUCHING ANY SELECTOR. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN DETECTED IN OTHER MODELS OF SATURNS, IN PARTICULAR. *JS

FOR THE PAST YEAR I HAVE BEEN HAVING A VERY DIFFICULT TIME INSERTING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND TURNING THE KEY TO TURN ON THE CAR. ONCE I GET THE KEY IN I HAVE TO JIGGLE IT OVER AND OVER UNTIL THE KEY IS ABLE TO TURN. SOMETIMES IT TAKES ME ANYWHERE FROM 5-15 MINUTES. HOWEVER LATELY WHEN THE KEY IS FINALLY IN IT GETS STUCK AND IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE KEY TO BE RELEASED LEAVING ME STRANDED. I ALSO NOTICED THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT TURNS ON AND OFF RANDOMLY WHILE I AM DRIVING THE CAR AND WHILE THERE IS A PASSENGER IN THE CAR. MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS IF THE AIRBAG FAILS TO DEPLOY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. ANOTHER CONCERN OF MINE IS THAT SOMETIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING THE CAR IT ACCELERATES ITSELF FOR A MOMENT OR TWO AND IT IS VERY SCARY. I AM CURRENTLY UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE I AM SCARED, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE I DRIVE MY 5 AND 1 YEAR OLD EVERYDAY. I AM UNABLE TO GET THE CAR LOOKED AT THIS TIME DUE TO FINANCIAL REASONS. MY SATURN VUE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL HOWEVER I REALLY WISH IT WERE BECAUSE ALL OF THE PROBLEMS I AM EXPERIENCING ARE VERY SIMILAR TO THAT OF THE GM VEHICLES THAT WERE RECALLED. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE SATURN VUE 2007 IGNITION PROBLEM, AIRBAG LIGHT PROBLEM, AND ACCELERATING PROBLEM. THANK YOU SO MUCH. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND WOULD SPORADICALLY ILLUMINATE WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SEAT MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,500.

I WAS DRIVING IN MY SUBDIVISION AND THE CURTAIN AIR BAGS WENT OFF IN MY 2007 SATURN VUE HYBRID. I SWERVED AND RAN INTO A TREE CAUSING MASSIVE FRONTAL DAMAGE AND THE DRIVER-SIDE AIR BAG TO DEPLOY. MY 3-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER WAS IN THE BACK PASSENGER CHILD CAR SEAT AND WAS OK BUT I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH CHEST, KNEE, HIP, AND NOSE CONTUSIONS, STILL HEALING AFTER 4+ DAYS. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS PER ALLSTATE. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT CAUSED THE CURTAIN AIR BAGS TO GO OFF BUT SEE ON CARCOMPLAINTS.COM THERE ARE MANY AIRBAG ISSUES. VERY MAD AND DEMAND ATTENTION FROM GM SINCE SATURN IS DEFUNCT. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JULY 22, 2012 IN CITY KIA IN ORLANDO( USED CAR) WITH 37,299 MILES ON THIS DAY.2007 SATURN VUE. IN MARCH 2013 I TOOK A RIDE FROM KISSIMMEE TO MIAMI AND WHEN I CAME BACK HOME AND GOT OFF THE TURNPIKE I HEARD A BIG SOUND UNDER MY CAR AND IT STARED TO SLOW DOWN UNTIL IT STOPPED COMPLETELY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, I HAD IT TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION,THEY FIXED FOR $1,926. I ALSO HAS SOME ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, ONCE IN A WHILE THE RADIO GOES RANDOMLY CHANGING CHANNELS BY ITSELF AND WHEN I OPEN OR CLOSE THE WINDOWS IT SOUNDS LIKE IT LOOSES ELECTRICITY, AND ALSO A LEAK FROM THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR IS LEAKING A GREEN FLUID, ALSO THE AIRBAG GOES ON SOMETIMES BUT EVENTUALLY TURNS OFF. *TR
