I've had several times where my car wasn't as stable as it should be. The car itself rumbles and jerks a lot on city streets and as I get off the highway. In the past there's been a few issues with the breaks. During winter time, the car won't start up (I have a new battery now and it still happens). Acceleration is occasionally delayed. Lastly there's a clicking noise coming from the passenger side of the car which continues from the time the key is in the ignition until I take it out.

The vehicle stalled and slowed but engine did not stop approaching an intersection on a town road. Days later it stalled again on a town road. The check engine light came on and another light flashed. In both cases stopping the engine and turning it back on remedied the issue and cleared the lights. While in motion on a country highway the passenger airbag light began flashing from on and off although there was only my pocketbook in the passenger seat. Removing the bag did not solve the issue. Stopping and turning off the ignition cleared the problem. The car lost power again on an interstate highway. I managed to get to the shoulder turned off the engine and the problem solved. The car began chiming instead of ticking when the left turn signal was on when the vehicle was exiting from a highway. The seat belt light came on at that time as well. The airbag light has remained on for several days now. This last occurrence was yesterday August 8, 2017. I am afraid that the car may stall while in a dangerous situation.

Took my vehicle for inspection it passed safety and failed emissions ! there is no engine check light on.

Unable to shut vehicle off. Repeat turning switch on and off eventually shuts vehicle off and able to remove key. Vehicle is parked when attempting to shut off. Engine does not appear to be running but unable to take key out of switch. This has occurred on or about yr 2012 to current. Did not drive vehicle at all last year (2016).

Temp gage stopped working along with air condition cooling, replaced sending unit to working vehicle and unit works, early on the trouble shooting worked once in a while, if removed from unit and placed backed, now does not work at all. Thanks.

Saturn Ion 2007 recall the other day I got an alert on the display of my car that stated "pwr strg" I was on the expressway and almost got into an accident that could have killed my 3 young children and myself. We were terrified. I was able to get on the shoulder of the highway by forcing the stirring wheel to turn. I then looked under the hood to see if I had a leak of power stirring fluid but to my surprise did not find anywhere that would indicate such a thing. When I turned the car back on to see what could be the problem the msg was gone. I was able to drive the car home but before I got home the msg came back on and I had to repeat it almost getting into a second car accident. I immediately did research on what could be the problem once I got safely home and found out that gm had recalled the "power sterring electric motor assist" due to others having the same problem. When I called gm to get assistance they told me that they would not cover the charges due to the previous owner getting the replacement of the same part back in 2014. I disagree with the decision that I should be responsible for replacing and paying for the part that has been recalled for the exact same reason. Power steering going out for no reason at all and then returning once I start the car back up. I believe they placed another defective steering motor in the car and my families safely should not be compromised for this over sight. I cannot afford to replace it and should not have to since it is not something different that is wrong but the same exact thing. I would like to know my rights on this issue and if they are still liable for replacing this part or am I.

Previously fixed recall has failed. Ignition does not work properly. Car remains running after key is removed. Key gets stuck in ignition.

Was guaranteed that nothing was wrong with it. I originally got a 2007 Ford escape by trading in my vehicle and 500 cash. They wanted me to put down an additional 900 down which I ended up not being able to do. So they offered to put me in another vehicle that was cheaper and I would not have to put any more money on. The 2004 Saturn Ion I received on 08/23/2016 not only had clutch issues which I said I would fix, but the battery light kept coming on and they assured me that nothing was wrong with the car mechanically. We did not even make it down the road before the vehicle broke down and had to have it towed. So now the car sits in my yard and I am out my original vehicle and the 500 cash I used originally plus towing charges and a vehicle I have to pay on that I cannot drive. I want them to come get the car and give back the 500 I wasted on two junk vehicles. I also had issues with the 2007 Ford escape. I was pretty much stuck taking this vehicle since I live two hours away and had no other way home.

Had ignition recall done, now key gets stuck in ignition so car can not be turned to off position or remove key. This never happened before recall was done. Have seen many similar complaints about this issue with this model Saturn. This should' be a recall item by GMC as it is obviously installing faulty parts. I believe this item could possibly cause a fire hazard. When I talked to the GMC dealer I was told since the recall had already been done. (even tho with faulty parts) it would cost $110. 00 just to check it out and then a couple hundred more to fix the problem they caused when doing the recall.

Complaints involving automatic power gear shift not working properly. Not able to engage the gear shift in order to be able to get the key out of ignition. Have to keep on starting and shifting in order to be able to disengaged the key out. Can no longer drive the car because afraid won't be able to get the key out of ignition. This all started after we had a recall on ignition which was replaced. There is a recall on this issue but for some reason this VIN# was not included in the recall. This is an issue on the same model, year, car with different VIN#. I would appreciate it if you would into this situation for which I'm pretty sure there should be a recall on this VIN# also. I had to call a lock smith one time because I wasn't able to get the key out off ignition since then haven't driven the car. This happens after I've been driving and then I go to park it and not able to take key out of ignition because the gear shift isn't working properly.

I have to have the electrical computer replaced - the car drops to 1st gear and doesn't move up, the door locks lock then unlock and continue to do that, the engine light comes on, the power steering alarm comes on (but I don't lose power steering) and the speedometer stops working! this happens while driving with no notice except the door locks start first them the other issues happen simultaneously.

Turned the key to the on position, dash lights come on but nothing happens, the car will not turn over. Tried to remove the key but it is stuck in acc position. All recalls have been done to my knowledge. After reading other reviews with similar problems I am now concerned with it turning itself off on it's own.

My car feels like a death trap. To start off with only one of my windshield wiper motors work . When I first bought the car from a single individual the passenger side wiper appeared to shake a little more than the driver side. As if it was working a little harder to keep up with the other wiper. . And then less than a month after purchasing vehicle it stopped working all together. Now I only have the driver side wiper that I use. Also when I go to turn on the blinker, go over a railroad track, make a turn iorn vehicle, or sometimes just sitting still. The wiper will start working without me having turnned it on. At first it would just come on for 3 or 4 swipes and then automatically stop again. But now its doing it more frequently and sometimes it will not stop swipping whichis very aggravating causing scratches on my windshield and wearing my one wiper down faster than it should be. Along with these problems my car has also been idleing extremly high upon cranking and while changing gears it acts as if it gets stuck between 1rst 2cd and 3rd. Also when I try to increase speed for passing or to make turns it sometimes just causes it to bog down more instead of increasing my speed it sounds as if its gonna blow up the engine.

While driving home from work my car died in the middle of an intersection. The a/c went off first then everything went off. I put car in park and after several tries the car started again. My ignition also gets stuck in the acc position(even after two ignition recalls) on a regular basis so glad I wasn't fighting that at that problem at the same time. Called gm dealer they said there is no recall but bring it in, they won't provide a loaner car but will give me a ride home because I live within 10 miles.
