1 Brake Light On problem

Failure Date: 05/21/2013

After having my brakes replaced, the abs light continues to come on. The light will go off for awhile, but every time I apply the brakes it will come back on for days. I am also having issues with my brake lights, turn signals, and headlights. They keep going in and out. Sometimes the passenger side door will not open or close correctly, I check to make sure nothing is in the way but still have the problem.

2 Brake Light On problem

Failure Date: 04/21/2010

Abs system light comes on. We bought the 2005 Saturn Relay used from a Saturn dealer. Day after we got it, the abs and brake lights came on. Dealer corrected it. One year later, brakes are all good but service abs system light comes on. Turn the van off and back on, it disappears. Then next time it is on. This has been reported in many forums. Why is this safety issue not being elevated to recall status.

3 Brake Light On problem

Failure Date: 10/01/2009

The abs light came on while backing out of the driveway. It has been in to the shop 3 times. Both hubs have been replaced. Abs warning continues to come on daily at random times. Now the brake light is coming on with the abs sometimes while driving or braking. There are new brake pads and the rotors are good. But the brakes make a grinding sound once in awhile. The repairman wonders why there wasn't a recall by Saturn.
