On November 2, 2018, and after a two day train ride from washington, I arrived at smith motors to inspect and test drive a 2007 Saturn Ion 3 sedan that I had located on cargurus. Com. I was unable to located a certified automobile inspector in that area, and inspecting the vehicle in the rain made it difficult to see exterior damage, and test driving with the defogger blasting concealed the defect about which I am making this complaint. I specifically asked the salesman, craig manske, what is the meaning of "certified pre-owned," and he assured me that the Saturn had undergone a rigorous inspection and servicing of equal quality. He left me in the aggressive hands of the closer, smith motors's business manager, ross kent. Mr. Kent insisted that I sign a form acknowledging that my modifying the vehicle or using non-gm parts might void the warranty. � I reminded him that the vehicle was twelve years old, had sixty-nine thousand miles on it and was undeniably out-of-warranty. He made my signature a deal-breaker, so I gave in because of the time and effort I had expended in getting myself to the dealership in the first place to buy this vehicle. I drove the car back to washington, but the stiff and squeaky pedals annoyed me enough that I took the vehicle to the nearest chevy, Buick & GMC dealership in warrenton, or. That technician was unable to silence the squeaky pedals with the lithium spray designed for the task. I ended up paying $55 in a subsequent attempt by another technician to unstiffen and silence the pedals, but it was unsuccessful. The cost to install a new clutch pedal is prohibitively expensive, there is no new brake pedal available, and the mechanic did not recommend using a salvage pedal. My request for reimbursement from smith motors, inc. Was denied by controller, carla sheeley, who insisted it was sold "as is. ".

Ever since I purchased this vehicle in October I've been having trouble & its only January I've had a fuel leak and had to replace it I've had bad struts had to replace it bad alternator replaced it bad battery replaced it bad brakes & rotors & I replaced it. It's just a horrible car and I wish I had spent my money else where is it possible that I trade in this car for something the same value I am very unsatisfied with this car.

2007 Saturn Ion. Consumer writes in regards to ignition switch recall notice. The consumer was involved in a one-car accident on December 13, 2013, totaling the vehicle. The consumer stated a vehicle in front of her braked, so she braked. However, the consumer hydroplaned and hit a wire fence in the middle of 2 highways. It tore the bumpers off the vehicle, damaged the front and rear windows, and sliced the tired. There was a large dent on top of the vehicle. Even after all of the damage, the air bags did not deploy. The consumer was injured. The consumer stated the key was in the ignition switch. However, it was already in the off position. Also, prior to the accident, the brakes would go all the way to the floor. However, the dealer was never able to duplicate the problem.
Unfortunately I have a 2007 Saturn Ion which sounds like it is going to break in half over even the slightest small bumps in the road. I have a warranty on the vehicle which expired in June 2010. Although the car only has 29000 miles on it~ Saturn would not honor the warranty when I brought my car in for a check engine light~ it was the purge sensor. They wanted to charge me over $300 to repair this issue. I went online and saw many other's had reported the same problem. I also saw the part for only $26. 00 ~however at the Saturn dealership they charged me $51. 00 for the part. I ended up fixing the repair myself to avoid being robbed by the Saturn dealership!! I am very displeased with my car~ now the struts and control arm bushings are making significant rumble when driving over the slightest bumps in the road. At 29000 miles the car should not be making any noise!! I feel very unsafe and scared in my Saturn!! I've seen many reports of other owner's with the same vehicle that are similar. Even the gm cobalt which has the exact same platform and steering has the same issues and for that car power steering issues have been recalled but not for the Ion which ~I repeat has the same components. I bought my car when fuel costs soared and thought it would at least last me 5 years with out issues. I think gm needs to address these issues especially since so many consumers are experiencing issues at such low mileage. There are also issues with the rear defrost, power windows, steering, and transmission. I'm from mn. And it's terrible when you have a newer car that won't even take you 30,000 miles without breaking down!! I'm very disappointed and Saturn needs to recall everything on these unsafe vehicles before someone gets seriously hurt ~like Toyota. I'm sure you've had several complaints. The car is defective!! please help!! Saturn won't repair unless it's completely broken even if the car is smokin they blow you off!!! ~horrible!!!.
