PASSENGER PRESSENT SENSOR HAS FAILED IN PASSANGER SEAT. SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT ON IN DIC. PASSANGER AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCEDENT ACCORDING TO OWNERS MANUAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V061000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. HARNISH BUICK GMC DEALER LOCATED AT 820 RIVER RD, PUYALLUP, WA 98371 WAS MADE AWARE OF THE RECALL AND STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON IN THE CAR DURING A TRIP WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THERE IS AN INTERNAL FAULT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT SUPPRESSION MODULE ACCORDING TO THE LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP. THIS RESULTS IN NO DEPLOYMENT OF EITHER OF THE AIRBAGS IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT/CRASH. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE COST TO REPLACE THIS MODULE IS NEARLY $800.

TAKATA RECALL I STARTED THE 2008 SATURN SKY WITH SOMEONE SEATED IN PASSENGER SEAT ,AIR BAG LIGHT SAID AIRBAG WAS OFF FOR PASSENGER SIDE AND SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK TO GM DEALER AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS BAD MODULE AND WOULD COST $936.62 TO FIX. I DID HAVE IT FIXED AND PAID THE $936.62 FOR SAFETY SAKE. THIS ISSUE REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND ON RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED.

I HAVE A 2008 SATURN SKY WITH 42000 MILES AFTER STARTING THE CAR THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS TURNED OFF LIGHT WAS ON, AFTER HAVING IT LOOKED AT WAS TOLD IT HAD A BODY CODE B0081 DEFECTIVE PASSENGER SEAT PRESSURE SENSOR. THIS REPAIR WOULD COST 1000.00 TO REPAIR AND IT HAS NO RECALL ON IT AND IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN IN TIME. GENERAL MOTORS HAS A RECALL ON THE IGNITION SWITCH AND THE AIRBAGS MAY NOT WORK IN A CRASH IT WAS A SAFETY PROBLEM, WELL THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAGS DISABLED AND GENERAL MOTORS WILL NOT OWN UP TO THE SENSOR DEFECT UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT OR IS DEAD

I STARTED MY 2008 SATURN SKY AND WHILE BACKING THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE I ALMOST HIT THE GARAGE BECAUSE THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO POWER ASSIST ON THE BRAKES UPON STARTUP. I HAVE SEEN THAT THERE SI A TSB OUT ON THIS FOR CARS SITTING EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. THIS CAR ONLY SITS OVERNIGHT AT MOST. THIS IS NOT A ONE OFF EVENT. IF MY WIFE OR DAUGHTER WERE DRIVING THE CAR THEY WOULD DEFIANTLY HIT SOMETHING BECAUSE OF THEIR INABILITY TO APPLY ENOUGH PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE THIS COULD EASILY LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 32,000. UPDATED 06/29/16*LJ UPDATED 07/13/16.*JB

WITH THE VEHICLE (2008 SATURN SKY) IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY, THE "AIRBAG SERVICE" WARNING APPEARED ON THE DISPLAY / READOUT. TOOK THE SKY TO A GMC DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THE PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE FAILED. APPROX $950 TO FIX. IF NOT FIXED, THE AIRBAG WONT DIPLOY.

I FORMALLY REQUEST THAT NHTSA INVESTIGATE THE PASSENGER SENSING SYSTEM FOR AIR BAGS IN THE 2007 TO 2010 MODEL YEAR SATURN SKY, AS WELL AS ITS PLATFORM TWIN, THE PONTIAC SOLSTICE. AS YOU WILL NOTICE IN THE WHITE PAPER ATTACHED TO THIS COMPLAINT, THERE IS CLEAR EVIDENCE THAT THERE IS A SYSTEMIC DEFECT IN THE PSS, THAT CAUSES THEM TO FAIL. GENERAL MOTORS HAS ADMITTED THAT SIMILAR PROBLEMS EXIST IN OTHER GM CARS OF THIS ERA, BUT HAS REFUSED TO PUBLICLY INVESTIGATE THIS SERIES OF CARS. IN A ROADSTER, THIS IS PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE THESE CARS LACK A BACK SEAT. WHEN THE PSS FAILS, THE ONLY PLACE A PASSENGER CAN GO IS INTO A SEAT - A SEAT WHICH NOW HAS THE AIRBAG DISABLED, AFTER THE PSS FAILS. AS THE WHITE PAPER NOTES, THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE JUST AS PRONE TO FAIL AS THE ONES BEING INSTALLED TODAY. I IMPLORE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE AND ACT ON THIS MATTER, AS APPROXIMATELY 100,000 OF THESE CARS WERE PRODUCED - AND ALL OF THEM ARE LIKELY TO EVENTUALLY SUFFER FROM THIS DEFECT, BASED ON THE TECHNICAL DATA COLLECTED BY THE COMMUNITY. THANK YOU.

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?

MY WIFE AND I HAD PICKED UP OUR 2008 SATURN SKY FROM THE DEALER AND WERE ABOUT HALF WAY HOME , A 28 MILE TRIP EACH WAY, WHEN A CHIME WENT OFF AND SAID THAT THE PASSENGER'S AIR BAG HAD BEEN TURNED OFF AND MY INFO SCREEN THAT HAD BEEN SHOWING ME THE COOLANT TEMPERATURE WAS NOW SAYING ''SERVICE AIRBAG'' . LONG STORY SHORT , GM DEALER WANTS OVER $1,00.00 TO FIX. OVER $500.00 OF THAT IS JUST FOR THE SWITCH ! AFTER SPENDING OVER 6 HOURS RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET IT SEEMS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO THOUSANDS OF SKY AND SOLSTICE CAR OWNERS PLUS ALL KINDS OF OTHER MODELS AND BRANDS , A LOT OF THEM FIXED FREE OF CHARGE AFTER A RECALL WAS ISSUED. RECALL FOR THE 2003-2007 CADILLAC CTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE... NISSAN MURANO AND THE LIST GOES ON. LOOKS LIKE MOST SKY AND SOLSTICE OWNERS ARE NOT HAVING THE AIR BAG SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT FIXED DUE TO THE HIGH COST AND THE LIKELY HOOD THAT IT IS JUST GOING TO BREAK AGAIN,

THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED INDICATING AN ISSUE WITH THE SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM. I HAD THE CAR EXAMINED BY THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED A PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM. THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 46K MILES AND AT THE TIME OF THE LIGHT ILLUMINATING HAD APPROXIMATELY 38K MILES. THE DEALER STATED THAT BECAUSE THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY, I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF THE REPAIR. I ELEVATED THE ISSUE TO GM CORPORATE WHO STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE VEHICLE AT THEIR COST BUT OFFERED ME A $1000 GM LOYALTY CREDIT TOWARDS THE PURCHASE OF A NEW VEHICLE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PPS DEFECT DISABLES THE PASSENGER AIRBAG. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT MAY RESULT IN A SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE SHOULD THE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED UNDER THE RECALL FOR SIMILAR RISKS. AT THIS POINT, I HAVE INSTRUCTED MY FAMILY TO NOT ALLOW ANYONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AS WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SAFELY PROTECT A PASSENGER IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS CREATING A LOSS OF USE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY.

WAS REAR ENDED AT HIGH RATE OF SPEED THEN HARD IMPACT ON FRONT END WHILE I WAS STOPPED--NO DEPLOYMENT OF MY AIR BAGS--5 CAR ACCIDENT OTHER CAR AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, WAS ON A HIGHWAY. IGNITION SWITCH REPLACED PRIOR TO ACCIDENT PER RECALL. ACCIDENT AND POLICE REPORTS WERE FILED,

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS COME ON IN MY SATURN SKY AND STAYS ON. I DRIVE A 2008 SKY SO THE VEHICLE IS NOT EVEN 10 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH AIRBAGS. A "SERVICE AIRBAG" MESSAGE APPEARS ON CENTER CONSOLE. FROM RESEARCH I'VE DONE THIS IS VERY COMMON ON THE SATURN SKY MODEL AND CAN BE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF CAR IS IN AN ACCIDENT. THE ESTIMATED COST TO FIX THE SENSOR IS ABOUT $1,000. THIS IS A HUGE CONSUMER SAFETY ISSUE AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL TO FIX THIS ISSUE.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V061000 (AIR BAGS). THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. IN ADDITION, THE AIR BAG PASSENGER WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE PASSENGER SEAT PASSENGER PRESENCE SENSOR FAILED, AND HAD TO BE REPLACED.

WHILE DRIVING ON A TRIP UP NORTH, THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND "SERVICE AIR BAG" APPEARED IN THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER. AFTER TAKING INTO GET FIXED, THE ISSUE IS A FAULTY SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, RENDERING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG USELESS. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, THIS IS HAPPENING A LOT WITH THE SATURN SKYS. IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX (AROUND $1000) AND VERY DANGEROUS, AND SHOULD BE A RECALL.

PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE NOT WORKING

SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON WHEN ENGINE STARTS & WON'T TURN OFF. HAD REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. WHILE REVERSING DOWN A HILL, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND STARTED TO SHAKE WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE VEHICLE ROLLED BACKWARDS AND STOPPED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 34,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED ACROSS THE MESSAGE BOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V047000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.

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.

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?

MY 2008 SATURN SKY ONLY HAS 44,000 MILES ON IT. I BOUGHT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT BECAUSE I GARAGE IT IN BAD WEATHER IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. I AM PAYING 1100.00 THIS WEEK TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT I AM PAYING FOR SOMETHING THIS IMPORTANT WHEN THE CAR STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL TIRES ON IT BECAUSE IT IS SO WELL TAKEN CAR OF. THE ONLY REASON I AM PAYING THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE IMPORTANCE OF SAFETY AND THIS SHOULD BE A GM PROBLEM NOT MINE. SHAME ON GM, SINCE OTHER CARS WITH THIS ISSUE HAVE BEEN RECALLED.

WHILE TURNING LEFT, THE DRIVER SEAT SNAPPED CAUSING THE SEAT TO LURCH RIGHT. THE SEAT FAILED UNEXPECTEDLY DURING NORMAL USE. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR IS NO LONGER WORKING. THE CAR IS LOW ON MILES AND HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND CARED FOR. GM APPARENTLY HAS A HIGH FAILURE RATE FOR THIS PART AND IS CHARGING $800-$900 FOR THE FIX. I CANNOT AFFORD THE REPLACEMENT OF THE BROKEN SENSOR. IF I HAVE AN ACCIDENT, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY.

THE 2008 SATURN SKY REDLINE FAILED THE HAWAII STATE SAFETY CHECK BECAUSE THE PARKING BRAKE DOES NOT FUNCTION. THE DEALER THAT DID THE SAFETY CHECK COULD NOT FIX THE PARKING BRAKE. *TR

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON AT ALL TIMES AND "SERVICE AIR BAG" APPEARS IN THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER AND MUST BE CLEARED AFTER EACH START. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN DETERMINED TO BE A FAULTY PASSENGER PRESENCE SENSOR LOCATED IN THE BOTTOM OF THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS NOW RENDERED THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INOPERATIVE AT ALL TIMES AND POSSIBLY AFFECTS THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE ENTIRE SRS SYSTEM. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, THIS IS A VERY, VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE SATURN SKYS AND PONTIAC SOLSTICES. IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX (AROUND $800-$1000 FOR PARTS AND LABOR) AND APPARENTLY THE REPLACEMENT PART HAS AN EQUALLY SHORT LIFE EXPECTANCY AND SEEMS TO DEVELOP THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM FOR MOST OF THOSE THAT HAVE REPLACED IT THUS FAR (ACCORDING TO RESEARCH DONE ONLINE). THIS CREATES A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION PARTICULARLY SINCE THESE 2 SEAT CARS ARE QUITE SMALL WITH PLASTIC BODY COMPONENTS THEREFORE MAKING THE AIRBAGS A NECESSITY IN A COLLISION. GM, AS WELL AS THEIR DEALERS ARE VERY AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT APPEAR TO BE DOING NOTHING TO REMEDY THE SITUATION. CLEARLY IT IS NHTSA'S DUTY TO FORCE THEIR HAND AND MAKE THEM RECALL THESE CARS AND REPLACE THESE PARTS WITH A REDESIGNED PART THAT WILL WORK PROPERLY AND THAT HAS AN ACCEPTABLE SERVICE LIFE!

PASSENGER OCCUPANCY SEAT SENSOR FAILED. GM WILL NOT COVER THE $1000 REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THIS IS PART OF THE SAFETY/AIRBAG SYSTEM AND A KNOWN FAILURE WITH MANY VEHICLES. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR DOES NOT WORK. THE CAR ONLY HAS 39,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN EXTREMELY WELL MAINTAINED. GM IS CHARGING $$900-$1000 TO REPAIR THE BROKEN SENSOR. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY AND INVITES INJURY. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY.

THE PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG SENSOR HAS FAILED. IF YOU DO RESEARCH YOU WILL SEE A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF SATURN SKY'S AND IT'S SISTER PLATFORM CAR THE PONTIAC SOLSTICE HAS HAD NUMEROUS FAILURES DUE TO A DEFECTIVE SENSOR MODULE. OTHER MANUFACTURES THAT USE THE SAME MODULE (LIKE BMW) HAVE ISSUED RECALLS ON THIS SAFETY ISSUE. IF YOU COMPEL GM TO PROVIDE YOU WITH THE NUMBER OF REPAIRS THEY HAVE DONE ON THESE CARS YOU WILL SEE THAT THE FAILURE IS WIDE SPREAD AND HAPPENS EVEN ON LOW MILEAGE RARELY USED CARS. GM SHOULD HAS FAILED TO RESPOND TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE FORCED TO DO A RECALL ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SEAT SENSOR. *TR

SERVICE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF, THIS SHOULD BE WARRANTY ISSUE. *TR

I'M A SINGLE WOMAN, AND HARDLY ANYONE EVER SITS IN MY PASSENGER SEAT. THE "SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHT HAS COME ON OUT OF NOWHERE. NO ONE WAS SITTING IN THE CAR WHEN THE WARNING LIGHT GOES ON. NOTHING HEAVY (BESIDES A FEW GROCERIES FROM TIME TO TIME) HAS EVER BEEN PUT IN THE SEAT. *TR

DRIVING HOME FROM THE STORE AND THE SERVICE AIRBAG WARNING CAME ON AND NOW THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT FUNCTION. LOOKING ON THE INTERNET THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH A VERY IMPORTANT PIECE OF SAFETY EQUIPMENT. I FEEL THAT WITH THE LARGE NUMBER OF PROBLEMS OCCURRING WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR

THE SERVICE AIR BAG INDICATOR CAME ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON. JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH MY WIFE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. DON'T KNOW FOR SURE WHAT IT MEANS BUT AFTER VISITING THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER, I KNOW I CANNOT AFFORD THE REPAIR AT THIS TIME. IF GM CAN ASSURE ME THAT THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MY PASSENGER THEN SO BE IT. IF GM CANNOT MAKE THIS ASSURANCE, THEN GM NEEDS TO BE RECALLING AND REPAIRING THE SAFETY EQUIPMENT. *TR

SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME AND PASSENGER SIDE SEAT SENSOR IS MALFUNCTIONING. THIS IS AN EXTREME CONCERN TO ME BECAUSE IF THE VEHICLE WERE TO GET IN A WRECK WITH A CHILD IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE AIR BAG MAY DEPLOY AND FATALLY INJURE THE YOUNG PASSENGER. GENERAL MOTORS NEEDS TO RECALL ALL SATURN SKY ROADSTERS FROM YEARS 2007-2010 AS ALL MODEL YEARS ARE AFFECTED. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED ISSUE. THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED WITH MANY OTHER VEHICLES AS A SMALL AMOUNT OF RESEARCH CAN INDICATE. THANK YOU! *TR

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.

WARNING LIGHT SHOWS AIRBAG NEEDS TO BE SERVICED WITH NO CRASH INCIDENT. DEALER WILL NOT FIX OR RECALL WITHOUT LARGE FEE. I NOTICED LOTS OF OTHER RECALLS FOR SAME PART ON OTHER GM CARS. *TR

THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR IS FAILING AND IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY GM AND SATURN, THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS ENDANGERING PEOPLE'S LIVES. *TR

THE PURPOSE OF THIS E-MAIL IS TO NOTIFY YOU OF PROBLEMS I'M EXPERIENCING TRYING TO GET THE RECALL ACCOMPLISHED ON MY SKY. I'VE CALLED SCHOLFIELD (THE DESIGNATED REPAIR DEALER FOR MY AREA) MULTIPLE TIMES AND AM GETTING A RUN AROUND. THEY TELL ME THEY CAN'T GET THE PARTS AND IT WILL BE 6-8 WEEKS BEFORE THEY EXPECT A DELIVERY. I'M WANTING TO PUT OUT A NOTICE THAT IF THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR WHILE WAITING FOR AN INEXPENSIVE DEFECTIVE PART, THERE MAY BE OTHER OUTCOMES, MOST ASSUREDLY UNDESIRABLE. WHATEVER CAN BE DONE, NEEDS TO BE DONE AS THIS VEHICLE IS A POTENTIAL THREAT ON THE ROADS AND THAT IS NOT DUE TO MY PERSISTENCE IN TRYING TO GET THE MANDATED RECALL DONE. ACCORDING TO THE LETTER, "YOU SHOULD CONTACT YOUR GM DEALER TO ARRANGE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE." I HAVE TRIED TO DO THIS ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, ONLY TO BE PUT OFF BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. ANY ASSISTANCE YOU COULD OFFER WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED AS THIS DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A PRIORITY FOR THE DEALERSHIP. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. FIVE DAYS AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER AN IGNITION SWITCH RECALL, THE FACTORY RADIO FAILED TO WORK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED NO REPAIR SOLUTION. THE RECALL DETAILS WERE UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 22,655. UPDATED 09/08/16*LJ *TR

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR IS BAD INDICATING IT WILL NOT WORK IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V047000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE DEALER STATED THAT THE PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AND COULD NOT PROVIDE AN ESTIMATE DATE OF ARRIVAL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN SKY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND CAUSED THE AIR BAG TO DEACTIVATE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I HAVE A SATURN SKY IN THE RECALL AND IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING WE CAN GET A LOANER FOR FREE WHILE WE WAIT FOR PARTS TO COME IN. ORR CHEVROLET IN TEXARKANA SAID ALL THEY HAVE TO LOAN IS COBALTS, AND THIS CONCERNS ME FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. I ASKED IF HE KNEW THOSE ARE ALSO RECALLED AND HE LAUGHED AND SAID YES BUT THAT'S ALL THEY GOT. I SUGGESTED THEY TAKE A VEHICLE OFF THEIR USED SALES LOT THAT ISN'T MADE BY GM BUT THEY CAN'T DO THAT. OBVIOUSLY I DIDN'T TAKE THE EVEN LESS SAFE COBALT AND I'M STILL DRIVING MY SKY, BUT I'M CONCERNED THAT THEY'RE OFFERING THE MOST DEADLY CAR OF THEM ALL AND THAT OTHER DRIVERS MAY END UP TAKING THEM, POSSIBLY FOR MONTHS. *TR

BRAKES FAIL WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

PASSENGER AIRBAG SEAT SENSOR HAS FAILED. AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASH IS ON, AND THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER READS "SERVICE AIRBAG".
