Air Bag Light On Problems of Saturn Outlook - part 1

Power steering randomly goes out and returns causing jerky lurching turns couple years now since reaching over 100k mileage, have 173k miles currently. Is now leaking fluid. Pcv valve replaced twice, not recalled but mechanics have said it's common for my vehicle, causes hesitation while idling like it's trying to stall out. Have had to put foot on brake and rev gas at stoplights. Airbag light has been on for years, passenger side doesn't detect. Although recall, dealership wants to charge diagnostic fees even when I had done for free at local parts store and gave them code, they say have to do their own. Passenger window does not roll down, but does roll up, with driver's side controls, does work with passenger side controls. Sometimes driver's side window sticks too either up/down have to bang on door for it to engage. Speakers haven't worked properly in years either.

The rear lift gate or strut support for the hatch of my 2007 Saturn, Outlook gradually fell on my son and I while putting the groceries in the car at walmart more than a few months ago; now the hatch no longer holds its weight and drops when you try to lift it, because it is pretty heavy, so as of today, I have not used the hatch for many months now, because it is not safe. I have called a few dealers that deal with Saturn, GMC even Buick and they all say that they do not work on vehicles over 10 years. (?) one of the mechanics said that he thought there was a recall on the lift gate like 3 years ago. ? I am to the point that I might as well find a local mechanic to fix the lift gate or strut for the hatch. Also, the passenger side air bag light has been on since January or February of 2019 and it won't turn off or reset?.

Airbag light has been lit up for awhile now. They say I need a new sensor. Is this not the same issue from a previous recall? why does this not show up under that recall?.

The sensor in my passenger seat does not sence that a passenger is sitting there, therefore will not deploy in a crash. The car has been doing this since I bought it new but I didn't recognize the problem because I assumed that it was because my children were too light to register. So I made them sit in the back. Now that they are teenagers they sit in the front, the airbag on off lights flips back and forth to on off while driving now the service airbag light comes on. Contacted gm they said my car is too old and will not be considered. The dealership wants 900. 00 to fix which I don't have. To me this car is dangerous for a front seat passenger.

1) steering went out during a heavy rain going down the road. Lost steering. Very scary. Happened with four kids in the car going over a bridge! took it to a car repair shop and they did not see a problem while looking at belt. It has happened a handful of times in very heavy raining which I try to avoid since that happened. 2) airbag light on. Just wonder if it is due to the water that pours in through the known defective sunroof tubes? during rains, water trickling through airbag compartments as well as water throughout vehicle. How come these sunroof tubes are not recalled????.

I have an airbag light going on my dashboard. I was told it was the (pps) passenger presence system module and would cost ~$1500 to replace. I have seen other people complain about this and why it isn't part of a recall. Can I get information if this will be subject of a recall? thanks.

My passenger airbag light stays on, on the dash and when someone is sitting in the seat sometimes it will show on but most of the time it's off. We took it in to have the recall for the wiring done but it still stays on.

I was driving along and my dashboard went dark, you couldn't read the mileage, or any data that should show up in that window, the battery level showed lower then normal however stopped to have battery and alternator checked and both were working normally per mechanic. When stopped car and turned back on data was viewable, then airbag light came on - stayed on for about an 30 min. Then went back off. There was an issue with roof leaking - dealership had to repair and now I think this is linked to that issue. However, not sure if others are having this same issue and don't feel I should be held responsible for something that the dealer should have checked out prior to correcting leaking. Have there been any other owners with issues regarding this?.

The passenger airbag light indicator showed off when a (heavy enough) passenger was sitting in the front passenger seat. This would happen intermittently. When I took it in to be checked, they said I needed a software update (done without asking for a cost of $62. 98). When I called gm, they said airbags were my responsibility after the warranty period ended. Shouldn't they be responsible for software problems with airbags. I have onstar, if a software issue was occurring, it seems they would tell me.

The service air bag light stays illuminated on dash and the passenger air bag is off even if somebody is seating in the passenger seat . I have tried calling dealers, Saturn-gm but have gotten no help with the resolution of this defect. They say that it is a defective sensor but according to a lot of forums this is a well known issue and this should be a safety defect not just a recall. This technically could hurt or kill someone in an accident and they have known about this. If something happens while driving this vehicle I will take this as high as I can take it. This has been happening for at least 18 months.

Service air bag indicator light goes on and off, this has been a problem with this vehicle for the past 3yrs. Dealer states there is a issue with the passanger seat wiring harness. My understanding their is a campaign for the 2008 and newer vehicles with the same problem, why were the 2007 vehicles left out.
