Two problems related to other fuel system pump have been reported for the 2005 Saturn ION. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
As soon as you turn the key on the fuel pump starts pumping fuel out over the left rear wheel with out starting the car. I have read that the 2006 and up Saturns have a recall on the fuel pumps but not the 2005 why. Will they recall the 2005 models in the future.
