Since new, we have had passenger air bag issues, ie: not sensing an adult passenger. Brakes have been operating poorly, with rear pads wearing out, and front not. Four new master cylinders, pads & rotors with no improvement. Now mid 2018, strong gasoline smell from under rear of vehicle. I have seen where other saturns, have a fuel leak relating to the fuel pump fuel lines. I suspect the same for our car. Doesn't matter how full the tank is, and of course it is parked. Should be a recall on this defect. We live in texas where it is hot. We now have about 130,000miles on the car.

Strong fuel smell coming from rear of vehicle near fuel tank, other saturns of a similer year have been recalled for a leaking fuel pump but not the aura even though there are many complaints of leaking fuel pumps on the aura.
Fuel smell, took to saturn authorized service center, replaced fuel pump at a cost of $1272.13. Afterward, I found online reports of possible fuel pump defect for 2007 saturn aura but couldn't find information to verify if the car qualifies for any repair or reimbursement.
Had to replace a faulty fuel pump that cracked at the fuel line port and caused gasoline to leak from the fuel pump assembly and possibly cause a fire. Very similar to an open recall on 2007 saturn ions, but there is currently no recall against the aura fuel system...
