2 Anti-theft Controller problem of the 1996 Saturn SC1

Failure Date: 11/05/2006

As the original owner of a 1996 Saturn Sc1 with 68,000 miles, this car has had four head gaskets replaced originating when this car was under a year old. In addition to these repeated catastrophic engine failures multiple replacements of alarm systems, radio, electrical issues and a defective front seat. This is what I purchased from Saturn and I have all documentation. The most recent head gasket failure occurred in November 06. As I was exasperated by Saturn and this vehicle I was sold, I sued the Saturn corporation in the richmond county small claims division for the cost of the fourth head gasket.

When key is in ignition and started and still in park the shift lock mechanism will not disengage when brake is depressed. Also when I shut off the car and turn key to off position the key gets stuck in the ignition leaving the car susceptible to theft.
