2007 Saturn Vue

BROUGHT MY 2007 SATURN VUE TO REPAIR A POWERFUL GASOLINE SMELL AROUND THE REAR OF CAR, NEAR GAS CAP. SAID IT WOULD COST $332 TO LIFT OUT FUEL TANK TO SEE WHERE THE PROBLEM WAS. 4 HOURS LATER, MECHANIC SAID THE TANK WAS DRENCHED WITH GASOLINE BECAUSE THE LINES TO THE FUEL PUMP WERE CRIMPED AND CRACKED SO THERE WAS GASOLINE LEAKING OUT. (WONDER WHY I WAS REFUELING SO OFTEN?) I NEED A NEW FUEL PUMP COSTS $600. I'LL BE SURE TO USE MY 10% OFF COUPON. THE WORST PART WAS NO ENGINE LIGHT EVER CAME ON TO WARN ME!!!! ALSO WITHIN THE LAST 10 MONTHS, I HAVE HAD THE BATTERY REPLACED, 2 NEW LIFT GATES, BRAKES AND NEW TIRES. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GOOD ABOUT OIL CHANGES/MAINTENANCE BUT I GUESS NEW CARS ARE ONLY SUPPOSED TO LAST 10 YEARS. BUMMER! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WIRING WAS MALFUNCTIONING IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SEAT HEATER WAS TURNED ON IN ORDER FOR THE AIR BAG TO BE ACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

OUR KEY STARTED STICKING IN THE IGNITION AND WE WOULD BE STRANDED UNTIL WE COULD FINALLY GET THE KEY TO TURN. ONCE THE KEY IS TURNED AND CAR IS RUNNING, KEY WILL FALL OUT OF THE IGNITION AND ONTO THE FLOOR WHILE DRIVING!! NOW THE IGNITION DOES NOT TURN ALL THE WAY OFF AND MUST BE SHUT OFF AND THE KEY REMOVED AT THE ACCESSORIES POSITION, WHICH LEAVES LIGHTS ON AND RADIO, AND DOORS BEEPING. IT IS EXTREMELY STRESSFUL TO HAVE THE KEY FALL OUT OF THE IGNITION WHILE DRIVING, BUT TO ALSO NOT BE ABLE TO COMPLETELY SHUT OUR CAR OFF. *TR

IGNITION LOCKED COULD TURN KEY OR PULL OUT AND/OR START VEHICLE. HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES THROUGH THE YEARS. THE MOST ONE I AM CONCERNED WITH IS THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON & OFF, MOSTLY STAYS ON. THIS STARTED SOMETIME AROUND AUGUST, 2014. I HAVE TAKE A PICTURE OF IT ON MY PHONE & WILL FORWARD WITH ANOTHER E-MAIL. I'VE CHECKED FOR RECALLS ON THE VIN# & HAVE NONE. I KNOW THERE SHOULD AT LEAST BE A RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS, I'VE HEARD. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF THIS SOON AS I TRAVEL TO WORK EVERYDAY & SOMETIMES TAKE MY GRANDCHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME & I AM CONCERN SOMETHING HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING & THEY ARE WITH ME. YOU CAN SEND ANY INFO TO MY E-MAIL ADDRESS: [XXX] OR PH# [XXX]; AND/OR BY MAIL. THANK YOU.

THIS CAR HAS GIVEN ME NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS THE LAST YEAR OR SO WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH.. I CAN'T TURN MY CAR ON FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. THE KEY WILL GO IN TO THE IGNITION BUT IT WONT TURN THE CAR AND THERE HAS BEEN TIMES THAT IT'S GOTTEN STUCK WHERE YOU CAN'T TAKE IT OUT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO A FEW PLACES NOW BUT THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE IT. SO THAT IS WHAT I DID AND AGAIN STILL GETTING STUCK. I HAVE TO GET A KEY CUT EACH YEAR BECAUSE THEY KEY LOOKS LIKE ITS ABOUT 70 YEARS OLD AFTER ONLY 6 MONTHS. THERE HAS ALSO BEEN TIMES I HAVE BEEN GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE KEY IS HARDLY IN THE IGNITION. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS. *DT

KEY STICKING IN IGNITION SWITCH, HAD REPLACED IN 2011 & IT STARTED TO HAPPEN AGAIN ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO, KEY WOULD NOT TURN SO HAD MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND THEY PUT LUBE IN IT, WORKED FOR A WHILE AND STARTED DOING IT AGAIN, GETTING WORSE EVERYDAY, REALLY HARD TO START, GM RECALLED A BUNCH OF SATURNS FOR IGNITION SWITCH JUST NOT 2007 SATURN VUE, IT HAS SAME SWITCH THAT WAS RECALLED SO THEY SHOULD REPLACE IT BUT THEY WILL NOT UNLESS I PAY FOR IT, NOT TOO FARE OF GM TO LEAVE THESE CARS OUT OF RECALLS, SO NOW I'M STUCK. THERE IS ALL KINDS OF COMPLAINTS FOR KEY STICKING & NOT STARTING CAR FOR THIS 2007 VUE, PRETTY MUCH ALL VUE'S FROM 2002-2007 AS THEY ARE THE SAME PART, GM NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS !!!!!!!!, I BOUGHT CAR BRAND NEW IN 2007 & STILL OWN IT BUT I'M STUCK CAUSE GM WILL NOT FIX IT EVEN THOUGH IT THE SAME SWITCH THAT WAS RECALLED ON OTHER GM'S (2002-04 VUES RECALLED SO WHY NOT THIS ONE) AGAIN SAME RECALLED PART IN MY CAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 SATURN VUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE KEY WAS DIFFICULT TO REMOVE FROM THE IGNITION ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE POWER STEERING AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 93,000.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON NUMEROUS TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR WHEN MY GAS GOES DOWN BELOW A HALF TANK. STEERING BECOMES A BIT MORE STIFF WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. IT DOES EVENTUALLY GO OUT. WHEN I AM IN AND OUT OF THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY THE LIGHT WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN COME ON. MY BRAKES ACT STRANGELY WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON. I HAVE HAD MY BRAKES DONE SO I KNOW THEY ARE OKAY. IT WORRIES ME THAT THE AIRBAG JUST RANDOMLY COMES ON. *TR
