5 Electrical System problem of the 2007 Saturn Vue Hybrid

Failure Date: 10/15/2014

I was driving to college when the check engine light came on. Upon stopping at a red light, the auto-stop feature kicked in but once I started going, the battery light came on and the entire vehicle started running horribly and the lights dimming. The airbag, traction control, and abs dash lights all started turning on and then off also. So I now have both check engine and battery lights staying on. I went to my fathers house to use his code reader since the service department at the dealership was closed and I have the following codes: poabb, poafb, p1a47, p1174, and three poa37. These codes are all saying that the hybrid system is over voltage and the diagnostic fix is to replace the hybrid system/power invertor. I'm going to the certified Saturn dealership in the morning to have it thoroughly looked at. But after looking at other complaints, it seems that gm should have looked at all the hybrid line battery systems for faultiness and needs to fix them!.

6 Electrical System problem of the 2008 Saturn Vue Hybrid

Failure Date: 06/29/2014

My 2008 Saturn Vue Hybrid started having huge problems. First the air conditioner started blowing hot air then the stabilitytrak and service hybrid system; loss power warning came on along with the check engine light. My 2008 Saturn Vue Hybrid would power down to 50% before engine shuts down. Sometimes it restarts then shuts down again. It did this off and on for about a few weeks. Sometimes vehicle refused to start and when I attempted to turn key it seemed like was stuck inside making it hard to turn or remove it. The mechanic replaced the battery and even hybrid battery and it was fine for some time. However today 10/14/14 in the middle lane of brooklyn queens expressway (busy highway) in new york city the automobile started to stall at 45 mph and the stabilitytrak and service hybrid system, loss power warning came on along with the check engine light then suddenly engine shut down. Fortunately no accident occurred and cars behind me were able to maneuver while I was able to drift over to curbside. Can you imagine if my car stalled at the crossroads? I was having my wife and 5 years old child in the car traveling with me. They started to have a panic attack because it seemed we are going to crash and die. I called towing company to tow us to safety. I'm scared to drive this car since. Please help and assist to push gm to take responsibility and recall the issue in order to avoid more serious casualties.

Passenger side airbag light comes on- took to shop- they said there is a problem with airbag and seat warmer connections- airbag light sometimes goes off when seat warmer is on. . . But after a few minutes the light comes back on. The mechanic said it would cost between 900-1200 to fix this- this is a safety issue that should be covered.

8 Electrical System problem of the 2007 Saturn Vue Hybrid

Failure Date: 04/27/2014

I own a 2007 Saturn Vue Hybrid, my key constantly gets stuck in the ignition and will not turn. At times it has taken me a full hour to get the key to tun after countless jiggling of the key and turning the steering wheel or pressing the brake. I have tried the spare key and the same thing happens. I have been stranded several times in a hot car in florida, and I'm pregnant. Not a happy camper.

9 Electrical System problem of the 2007 Saturn Vue Hybrid

Failure Date: 11/20/2013

I purchased a 2007 Saturn Vue Hybrid and I also purchased an extended warranty from boulevard Cadillac in long beach, CA. In November or Dec. Of 2013 the battery in my vue died and I purchased a new one from bumin cheverolet in culver city, CA. At that time they told me that there was something wrong with my car and since I had an extended warranty, I should take the car back to boulevard Cadillac. I took the car there in Dec. Of 2013 and they told me the airbag and seat belt sensors had gone out, they were not covered by my portfolio elite extended warranty ins. Policy no. ? boulevard Cadillac did not return but policy but I can prove that I purchased a policy. Boulevard Cadillac told me the airbag and seat belt sensors were not covered and it will cost $1600. 00 to repair. I did not have the money due to financial hardships and a child inc college. Now the sunroof is flooding and I do not have my extended warranty policy to see if the sunroof is covered. I will never buy another gm product=vehicle!!!.
