2007 Saturn Outlook airbags complaints
Page 2 of 4: complaints 11 to 40 of 88, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My right head light goes out, I have changed the bulbs too many times and the harness. My stability track comes on and I can loose power the first time I was traveling out of town on the highway, and by grace of god I was able to pull over. This car is becoming a nightmare and I think we should be given some kind of compensation...please fix these issues...this is an ongoing problem for the last 3yrs
On january29 2019 I was involved in an accident and the airbags on the passenger side it did not open and the impact was on that side opened that one that opened what's on the driver side and there was a lot of smoke coming off-the- airbag coming up and I couldn't breathe the accident happened on the street
Passenger air bag not rconized
The s.I.r fault on the passenger seat presence module has eliminated with out any use incident.
I bought it used and its has been saying service air bags on the dash and the light that says ithe air bag is on and off mostly is in the off position which is located above the air conditioner panel. Also o. The dash its pops up the red picture of a person sitting in the front seats with an air bag in front of them facing the air bag. The light is starting to get stuck on meaning my air bag may not be working at all. I am driving when it comes on and now it is on when I start the vehicle meaning its not working correctly or at all. I think it could be involved with this recall about the airbag module. The recall number is 07v062000
1) steering went out during a heavy rain going down the road. Lost steering. Very scary. Happened with four kids in the car going over a bridge! Took it to a car repair shop and they did not see a problem while looking at belt. It has happened a handful of times in very heavy raining which I try to avoid since that happened. 2) airbag light on. Just wonder if it is due to the water that pours in through the known defective sunroof tubes? During rains, water trickling through airbag compartments as well as water throughout vehicle. How come these sunroof tubes are not recalled????
The factory installed sunroof leaks rainwater into the interior of the car. It has affected airbags, sensors, electrical systems and power systems. If the car gets wet, the water travels to the electrical system to circuit boards and discharges the battery. The vehicle will die in traffic if water travels to the circuit board during driving. Airbags have evidence of water traveling through their assembly. Floor and seats are wet after rain, sprinkler, car wash, morning dew. Doesn't seems to be dependent on amount of water received. Battery tests fine on full charge. Alternator functioning correctly. Problem is directly related to sunroof leakage. Sunroof seal is not yet under recall. Yesterday, after a day of rain, the car had to be charged to drive to work. Drove 20 miles with no apparent power issues, but airbag sensors sent alert through the dash that airbags needed servicing. After work 7 hours later, car drove into okc rush hour traffic, water in the roof sloshed (you can hear it) and the car died. In traffic. Completely discharged the battery. No lights. No hazards. No door locks. No brakes, steering, ability to move the car in or out of gear, or even remove the key from the ignition. Car had to be jumped in order to put gear into neutral to move out of traffic and remove key from ignition. Charged all night on trickle charger and was running fine today. Except, it's raining now.
Just purchased myself a used saturn outlook. Happened to storm the night I purchased it. My car has a sunroof and moonroof. They are both leaking into my car. There are currently five airbag sensors that are no longer working and it is believed that the damage is being caused by the leaking water running along the side panels and down under the seats and into the battery area behind the passenger seat. I'm scared that this is will lead to an electrical shortage either at the battery area (its already corroded the connectors on at least one battery), my fuses, or worse. Since my daughter and I both have asthma, mold growth is a serious concern. And worse yet, failure of airbags causing death/serious injury to myself and/or my children and passengers. To see that gm knows there's a problem and is not doing anything to rectify it is absurd. I'm glad that their bottom dollar is more important than us living through an accident. I feel like I'm stuck paying for something I can't afford which isn't remotely my fault (its an obvious design flaw) because surviving an accident, not dying from an electrical malfunction, and breathing when mold grows is actually a pretty important thing. I'm legitimately scared that the airbag malfunctioning might actually kill someone.
We bought our 2007 saturn outlook in late july 2016. In early august 2016 the "service air bag" light started turning on and the passenger air bag would turn off when I had someone in the front seat, but lately it turns off randomly and says "service air bag" even when no one is in the front seat. This issue needs to be taken seriously. Families (like mine) own these vehicles. This sensor issue should be fixed by the company who made and sold the faulty sensors in the passenger seats. I can't afford to pay gm $1,000 for a new passenger seat.
Takata recall, I have an issue just like everyone else complaining about their front passenger seat airbags faulty sensor and I contacted the dealer to have them checked it and told me to pay 1k to replace the seat sensor... I believe just like many people said it supposed to be a recall for that issue because it's related to an safety issue please take this serious situation and we all hope to get a recall for our cars before we get injured thank you best regards.
I just buy 2007 saturn outlook xe on 2/4/17 , it has air light light stays on
The passenger airbag turns off and on regardless if a person (adult) is sitting in the seat or not. This has been happening for about three months now. I contacted the dealer and they said that it was not a recall item nor would it be a safety issue. I feel that if I am in an accident and the air bag does not deploy that the passenger could be in imminent harm at the fault of gm. They will not replace the sensor unless there is a recall. This is a very common problem with several other vehicles as reported on multiple online vehicle owner forums. Gm needs to do the right thing and protect their customers from faulty equipment.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 saturn outlook. When the front passenger seat was occupied, the air bag sensor indicated that the air bag was off. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. An independent mechanic informed the contact that the air bag sensor failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 122,000. Updated 12/01/16
The service air bag light stays illuminated on dash and the passenger air bag is off even if somebody is seating in the passenger seat . I have tried calling dealers, saturn-gm but have gotten no help with the resolution of this defect. They say that it is a defective sensor but according to a lot of forums this is a well known issue and this should be a safety defect not just a recall. This technically could hurt or kill someone in an accident and they have known about this. If something happens while driving this vehicle I will take this as high as I can take it. This has been happening for at least 18 months.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 saturn outlook. The contact stated that the vehicle had a leak and water came out of the driver side air bag. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 109,000.
Air bags keep warning on and force to vacate the seat on wearing seat belts wearing, dash board lose power and back after couple minutes.steering make noise on backing
Service airbag warning is lit. Saturn says no available recalls for my vehicle. Recall 07043 was performed. I cannot afford to complete service.
I have a 2007 saturn outlook xr and my service airbag light remains on at all times and my passenger side airbag wont turn on no matter who sits in it or any position. I have seen a lot of complaints about this same issue and feel their should be a recall on the 2007 saturn outlook's.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 saturn outlook. While driving 55 MPH, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the front passenger side air bag module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 99,000.
At approximately 100,000 miles the service air bag light started to illuminate on the dashboard. Furthermore, the passenger airbag is always switched off regardless if there is someone in the passenger seat or not. Brought to dealer in june 2015 with mileage of 101,806. It is giving code b0081-of stating there is an internal fault in passenger presence sensor. Approximate cost to fix was around ~$1000. Declined fixing it at this time as I had already spent $2500 in other repairs. This is obviously an ongoing issue with many of these cars and is a huge safety concern....not just wear and tear. Please look into these airbag concerns.
Seat sensor keeps going on and off with or without someone in the passenger seat. I have tried calling dealers, saturn-gm but have gotten no help with the resolution of this defect. They say that it is a defective sensor but according to a lot of forums this is a well known issue and this should be a safety defect not just a recall. This technically could hurt or kill someone in an accident and they have known about this. If something happens while driving this vehicle I will take this as high as I can take it. This has been happening for at least 6 months.

Tve pps modul is not working properly. Power train is working wear when in desacelerating.
Another case of gm vehicle where 'service air bag' message appeared and passenger side air bag will not go back on. Dealer diagnosed it as need to replace passenger presence seat assembly because it has failed
I was struck causing an accident that completely damaged the right front and right side quarter panel. All components had to be replaced as they could not be repaired. No air bags deployed. My 89 year old mother who was a passenger in the front struck her head on the right window door. She would have hit the dash if she wasnt wearing a seat belt. I contacted gm and was told that my vehicle was not included in the recalls. The dealer charged me 97.47 to check it and found that the passenger presence module was bad and it would cost me $827.00+ for repair.
I was driving along and my dashboard went dark, you couldn't read the mileage, or any data that should show up in that window, the battery level showed lower then normal however stopped to have battery and alternator checked and both were working normally per mechanic. When stopped car and turned back on data was viewable, then airbag light came on - stayed on for about an 30 min. Then went back off. There was an issue with roof leaking - dealership had to repair and now I think this is linked to that issue. However, not sure if others are having this same issue and don't feel I should be held responsible for something that the dealer should have checked out prior to correcting leaking. Have there been any other owners with issues regarding this?
Passenger airbag will intermittently not enable with adults (>120 lbs) in front passenger seat. Prior recall for connector under seat was completed when issued. Dealer diagnosis of code for "passenger presence" module fail, with recommendation of replacement of passenger presence seat ass'y at cost of $960 - not yet completed. Elevated to gm customer assistance. Appears to be a chronic, ~500 ppm issue on the 2007-2008 model years of the gm lambda platform (saturn outlook, gmc acadia, and buick enclave). Research of the federal safety agency complaints against posted sales quantities shows that this issue continues into 2015 for the 2007-08 models, with virtually no issues for 2009 and newer model year vehicles....updated 09/28/15 *bf updated 11/08/2017
Inflatable restraint passenger presence system stopped working.
My 2007 saturn outlook continuously leaks water from the roof every time it rains. The leaking water is not one drip here and there, but a gush of water will come out of these areas and will continue to leak while it is raining. The water will drain out of the headliner, the airbag areas, the light fixtures, the seat belt areas all in the front and back of the car and will also drench the passenger and driver side floor boards. This has caused my car to have a musty moldy smell to it. I find it very discerning that after you purchase a vehicle, it will have these safety issues such as water leaking. I understand that these things happen, but I am afraid that this will cause a shortage with the wiring systems in my vehicle thus causing even more damage. Since the water started leaking from the roof, I have had airbag issues and windshield wiper issues (it runs constantly). I would not recommend this vehicle to anyone.
