When I was driving I accidentally pulled my key from the ignition but the car was still running and I was still driving...I was able to put the key back in the ignition. When I finally came to a stop and put the car in park...I wanted to make sure this was a one off so I tried to pull the key from the ignition while the car was running and it came right out.

First noticed my key would not fit into ignition and after many tries the alarm started beeping and I was then able to insert the key. This has happened several times since. The biggest worry has been that on one occasion I had turned off the engine, took the key out, stepped out of the vehicle ready to walk away and realized the engine was still running. The dash board lights periodically don't come on and the radio, although I can hear it, does not display the information.

My passenger seat air bag light started to come on periodically, whether someone was in the passenger seat or not. At times it would go off, but for the past 30 days it stays on whether someone is in the seat or not. About the same time, we detected a "short" in the radio system, as at times you cannot change the station, and I have actually had the station change without touching any selector. I am concerned that this has to do with the ignition switch issue that has been detected in other models of Saturn, in particular.

For the past year I have been having a very difficult time inserting the key in the ignition and turning the key to turn on the car. Once I get the key in I have to jiggle it over and over until the key is able to turn. Sometimes it takes me anywhere from 5-15 minutes. However lately when the key is finally in it gets stuck and it does not allow the key to be released leaving me stranded. I also noticed the airbag sensor light turns on and off randomly while I am driving the car and while there is a passenger in the car. My biggest concern is if the airbag fails to deploy in case of an accident. Another concern of mine is that sometimes when I am driving the car it accelerates itself for a moment or two and it is very scary. I am currently unable to drive my car because I am scared, especially because I drive my 5 and 1 year old everyday. I am unable to get the car looked at this time due to financial reasons. My Saturn Vue is not included in the recall however I really wish it were because all of the problems I am experiencing are very similar to that of the GM vehicles that were recalled. Please investigate the Saturn Vue 2007 ignition problem, airbag light problem, and accelerating problem. Thank you so much.

I purchased this vehicle new and within a year my key would get stuck in the ignition to the point where I could not turn the key at all to either turn on or off the vehicle or to get the key out of the ignition. The first time it happened, I believe I had my own mechanic fix it. Then the next times it started happening, it would happen intermittently. I was working with individuals who are disabled and taking them out into the community using my own car. On an extremely hot day(in the 90S) my key got stuck in the ignition (all I did was put the key in normally to start the car) and the individual I had in the car refused to get out of the car (which posed a serious safety hazard to that individual because inside the car at that point I am sure was over 100 degrees). I finally convinced the individual to get out of the car after about a half hour. After I called a tow truck to tow my car I called GM to file a complaint because this is not a normal issue.GM fixed the issue and told me it was my key (which I had another key made to hope to solve this issue) a good description of the issue is I would be: I put the key in normally, it would partially turn, and then stop and I cannot move the key at all, even to get the key out of the ignition. The owners manual states to turn the wheel all the way to the right or left to "unlock" the ignition. This would not do anything at all. Sometimes if I let the car sit for a while and go back to it, it would just work. Other times, it didn't matter how many times I tried to get it to work, it would not.even the tow truck drivers could not get it to work. Also, my air bag light comes on intermittently.I have never had the air bag light issue looked at, but with the reports on the news I thought could be an issue too.

I needed to use my car to do routine chores, the key would not turn. I called the dealer that I got the car from and was told they would need to tow the car in, put it on a machine and replace the ignition switch at my expense. I refuse since I had just purchased the car in February of 2013. I called a lock smith who informed me that something was wrong with the way the ignition switch was placed in these cars. I paid to have it fixed by the lock switch. It got stuck again the next day and he replaced it again, at my expense. It is beginning to stick again, where can I go to get the problem resolved without expense to me.

I was driving in my subdivision and the curtain air bags went off in my 2007 Saturn Vue hybrid. I swerved and ran into a tree causing massive frontal damage and the driver-side air bag to deploy. My 3-year-old daughter was in the back passenger child car seat and was ok but I was diagnosed with chest, knee, hip, and nose contusions, still healing after 4+ days. The car was a total loss per allstate. I have no idea what caused the curtain air bags to go off but see on carcomplaints.com there are many airbag issues. Very mad and demand attention from GM since Saturn is defunct.

When you try to start the car, the ignition won't turn unless you try to move the steering wheel. It has progressively gotten worse as time goes on.

I bought this car in July 22, 2012 in city Kia in orlando( used car) with 37,299 miles on this day.2007 Saturn Vue. In March 2013 I took a ride from kissimmee to miami and when I came back home and got off the turnpike I heard a big sound under my car and it stared to slow down until it stopped completely in the middle of the street, I had it towed to a repair shop and they said it was the transmission, they fixed for $1,926. I also has some electrical problems, once in a while the radio goes randomly changing channels by itself and when I open or close the windows it sounds like it looses electricity, and also a leak from the air conditioner compressor is leaking a green fluid, also the airbag goes on sometimes but eventually turns off.

I too had problems with the key ignition as well as the passenger air bag light coming on. The key was fixed when I bought the car. Now my issues is with the windows randomly not working and passenger air bag on. My car window on the passengers side did not work for a year. It would work occasionally (when I tested the button) now the passengers side work, but the drivers side dose not. I was told by Saturn that they are unrelated issues. I can not understand that" my car is in the shop to have service done on it. The drivers side window needs to be fixed. At the cost of $265 just the driver side, and they said that their is no problem with pass. Side... I can see that the windows are an issues with this type on Saturn... and no one is addressing this issues. Their is definitely a problem with the air bag system as well as the window system. I love my car, but what I'm reading here seem to show me that the problems are real concerning my car. And the service center said that they not related? I have a big problem with that. Some one need to check in to the window and air bag problem. Their must be a site that people talk about these issues?"

My 2007 Saturn Vue all the time since I purchased it the passenger side deployment bag light will not work, unless I turn on the passenger heat, and the seat does not heat up, and I am still not sure it will work because it is an electrical problem, also my electric windows won't work on several occasions, and the ignition shift the key sticks and steering column locks when this happens, and it won't release the key. Dealer won't deal with it, wonder if there has been any other complaints because I do not feel safe especially when I have passengers, it cannot be trusted, not sure of any recalls, but it definitely needs to be looked into and fixed before anyone could get hurt.
