The power train has failed the car won't start the fuses and relays are burning up and the transmission shifts so hard at a jolt almost. The service ecs ecm and service airbag indicator staying lit and the back passenger airbag looks like it's about to deploy it's a safety hazard I love my car I've only had it a year and I don't know what is happening or why.

My vehicle’s make and model have received recalls as stated online, however, my specific VIN does not state any recalls. I am having the same symptoms with the airbags, electrical, and transmission as the recalls stated with my make and model. I believe there should be recalls for my vehicle’s VIN. My check engine light has been on, and it is not shifting the way it should. My airbag warning light also turns on at times.

Nobody has inspected my vehicle. However my rear passenger airbag on the driver's side has malfunctioned and blown out the rear interior panel and the service airbag light is on this just happened 4 days ago and there was no accident to cause it.. my transmission is not functioning properly as of yesterday it has a jolt like jerk when shifting into another gear and doesn't want to go all the way into park. And my speed odometer bottoms to 0 and all electrical equipment fails temporarily while driving I have video proof of this happening. My safety as well as other motorists are at risk if this keeps happening... ATTENTION THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY ACCIDENTS !!! YET.....

I have owned this 2007 saturn aura since 2017 and the service airbag light will come on intermittently whether there is a front passenger or not, sometimes the light will remain on for the entire time I'm using the car that day and then other times the light come on for a brief period and on rare occasions the light will remain off that entire day. It doesn't seem to matter if the car is in motion or at what speed this occurs, it seems to be totally random. This has been happening as long as I have owned the car that currently has 109,00 miles on it. As far as I know this car has never been in any accidents.

"service airbags" message on dic used to come & go. It is now permanently on. Dtc b0081-71 is active. Passenger airbag lamp stays off whether someone is sitting in the passenger seat or not. Been told the pps pad in the seat foam needs replacing for over $1000. Seat hasn't been sat in more than 20 times since car was new.

Takata recall inflators airbag light shows up on my dash screen while driving never goes away while the car in motion even when on in park gear. As soon as the key is inserted to start the vehicle the reading shows up as long as the car is in motion. I do not know if this poses a risk but I am concern as too if the air bag might pop out while driving. Thank you for viewing. I am taking this as a warning that it could happen while driving. Also washer fluid reservoir tank has a blockage. Fluid does not come up high enough to clean the windshield. This may or not be under a recall. Concern about driving . Do not want the air bag to pop out.
