I bought this 2009 Saturn Outlook yesterday from a used dealership they said there was nothing wrong with the car well I live over 100 miles away from where I bough it and about halfway home it’s it was dark outside I was driving on the highway going up a hill the motor was acting like it wanted to jump out f the car (I’m not sure exactly how to describe it) anyways it only did ur for just a second then stopped all went back to normal and today just died while driving and now it wont start wont even turn over.
There is a recall for the linkage system, where the vehicle still rolls while in park. I am having this issue and a grinding sort of sound. The VIN is saying 0 unrepaired recalls on the website and I believe this issue is an ongoing problem of the previous recall in '09. While the vehicle was driving there was the sound that something was dragging, the vehicle was pulled to the side of the road to check but while in park the vehicle would still roll. The car had the emergency brake set in place at this moment.
Recalls 14030, 14187, 15240 dealer contacted to perform recalls refused to call back with appointment date.
Past 5 years check engine light on. Replaces plugs 3x, converters 3x, and everything including ignition coils 2x, light still on, stating converters need replacing. Car has been in the shop more than a hospital has emergency room patients. Engine light would stay off for a week or two, now only for 30-40 miles. Emissions says car not ready for testing. Vehicle drives and runs perfectly, purrs like a kitten, but now can't pass emissions. Chevy, Acura, repair shops, muffler shops and alley mechanics all baffled. Too many invoices to upload, but I have every one of them and receipts for parts if needed. This has been going on since I got the car. Chevy never could fix it. Each trip cost me $700+, but no solution, the problem just keeps escalating. Oh, I never put cheap gas in vehicle, and oil changes/ tune- up are up to date. Help please. (someone suggested the ecm computer is bad).
