3 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 03/14/2016

Temperature on ac will go to full hot when the temperature control is turned one click off of cold. I understand that there is an update pic (pic4995a) related to this problem. Does this mean a recall has been issued or that this part would be relpaced free of charge?.

4 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 07/20/2015

To whom it may concern, I would like to notify the NHTSA as well as gm that the recent hummer recall does not include vehicles that share some of it's components that are being recalled currently. It also effects the Chevrolet colorado, GMC canyon trucks. As well as the vehicle I drive which is the Saturn Sky and it's identical pontiac solstice. The Sky/solstice has the same hvac unit and wiring harness that is being recalled due to fire risks in the hummer. I have called my local Chevrolet dealership and there are no active recalls for my Sky. In order to get the revised part that is being installed in the hummers, it would cost me $150 out of pocket without labor. Being that this is my only vehicle for work and school, I fear for my safety due to the fact that this is a low volume vehicle in comparison to the hummer and it will be ignored by both gm and NHTSA. I believe if one vehicle gets recalled for a particular component, it is the job of both gm and NHTSA to see if said components were used in other vehicles, to which gm did for 4 other vehicles; colorado, canyon, Sky, and solstice. Thank you for your time. Please note this complaint is simply to notify, my car has not caught fire, but I do know that my a/c is acting odd lately and I am worried about my safety and the safety of others that is being ignored.

5 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 07/20/2015

I brought my Saturn Sky that was manufactured by gm to my local Chevrolet dealer. They told me that the module is not on recall although many other models that gm makes did and does have a recall for the same product. I will no longer let anyone ride in the passenger seat. I would hope that someone would force gm to do what they have done for all their other makes and models. If someone gets hurt or possibly killed I will have to be forced to sue someone. They say the process costs $900 and I think if anything they should pay for at least the parts. How can they recall other models and not this model?.

6 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 10/01/2014

Takata recall--I have gotten 2 notices--no known fix according to gm. Ignition recall--took in for repair--didn't repair properly--I had to spend my own money replacing ignition switch because they said I didn't bring back earlier.

7 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 03/15/2012

I have seen the recalls in the news for the Saturn Sky 2006-2007 models, and looked up what happened, and I think the ignition switch problem has happened to me in the 2008 model. I was driving on a state road, and suddenly the car just stopped. I was able to restart it, and nobody was around to hit me, but I never understood what happened. I remember being very afraid of another car coming along and hitting me. Now I see this is exactly what happened to other people. This never happened to me again, and I forgot all about it until now. I just thought it was a freak thing at the time, but I wonder if the 2008 model also needs to be in the recall. I'm not feeling very safe right now, given that gm did not recall all affected cars in the past.
