problem #3

Ion

  • 20 miles
Purchased a 2007 Saturn Ion 2 with 20K and I've had it for less then 2 weeks and driven it about 80 miles or so. The key would not turn completely to turn off the ignition and when I was finally able to force the stuck key out of the ignition it continued running. Faulty ignition switch. The second problem that I had 3 days prior was airbag warning light which is currently being serviced.

Ion

Airbag readiness light comes on with trouble code B0092 in passenger presence system. Vehicle has been in repair facility 6 times for the problem, and re-occurs within a few miles of repair. Replacement of pps module in passenger seat does not solve the problem.

problem #1

Ion

  • Automatic transmission
  • 5,620 miles
Airbag did not deploy after an auto accident. I was cut off by a car from the right lane while traveling on I280 in northern California. I was forced into the next lane to my left to avoid a collision - I lost control of the car and hit the guardrail head on. I was traveling between 60-65 mph prior to the accident. The car was a rental (enterprise-rent-A-car) - my attempts to receive information as to any possible defects of the car from enterprise (& elco admin services) have proved fruitless. I repeatedly informed enterprise that I was not injured and that for my own piece of mind I simply wanted to know why the airbag did not deploy.
