5 Starter problem of the 2007 Saturn Aura

Failure Date: 01/01/2014

Since the car was repurchased from another buy the car has had electrical issues with it. It blows a fuse constantly causing the rear taillights not to work when the fuse is then replaced it last a day or so then blows again. This c not in nuesbto happen even after replace the taillights with new ones. We replaced the entire thing not just the bulbs. The headlights even though we have had attempted to replace them the driver side headlight continues to come on and go off as if it's got a short in it some where. The battery has a short some where I think. At times after driving it we go to shut it off and we'll go in the store and come and the car won't start. We have had to wait 2-3 hours before it would start up again. So since we live in the desert it being hot we started checking things. When the battery is lifted up on or my bed around the car will then attempt to start but it just makes the noise like it is trying to crank over and there's been multiple times that the ignition has attempted to start itself while messing with the battery. And the ignition gets stuck. Soon as we let go of the battery it stops trying to do anything. We have replaced the starter the battery and other things and nothing's works to fix it. Also the door locks like to engage and disengage randomly on their own as if the car is haunted. Causing us to disconnect them all together.

6 Starter problem of the 2009 Saturn Aura

Failure Date: 10/01/2013

There are 4 recalls out for my car, and I have never received any letters to get the work done. The summer of 2013 the car stalled on me and I had to get it towed and pay to replace a wiring harness. I'm not sure if this was due to a part that was recalled or not. If it is, I would like to know if I can get refunded for it. Also, right before winter 2013 my remote starter quit working; the engine light is on; I'm getting a false warning light for the tire pressure; I have heard a bing noise like the door was open because I was using the turn signal when driving; my left front door speaker comes on whenever it feels like it; the lights have blink on and off and my car almost wouldn't start. I think all of this might be an electrical problem. Please contact me and/or send me a letter about getting recalled parts replaced on my car. Thank you.
