2007 Saturn Vue airbags complaints
Page 4 of 4: complaints 71 to 90 of 90, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I was driving on the interstate (i90) near rockford il when all of the sudden my side curtain air bags deployed. There was no accident and the front air bags did not deploy. The seat belts locked up and the lights started flashing. This issue has not been resolved through gm. My insurance company says they wont fix it because it was not in an accident. Gm has not been helpful at all. Gm had an independent investigator out. The investigator said it was obvious it was not in an accident. Gm has been very vague in its response. Only saying that they believe the air bag system is ok, "something must have made it go off".
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 saturn vue. The contact stated that the passenger's side air bag warning light would illuminate whenever the passenger seat was occupied. The failure began when the wire used for the heated passenger's seat failed. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was told that the heat element wire fractured and caused the failure. The dealer advised that the failure was common with his particular model that had the optionally heated seat. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was unknown, but the current mileage was 75,000. Updated 12/19/12 *cn the consumer stated the failure was created because the passenger heat element in the seat cushion was an open circuit. Updated 1/9/2013
I purchased the used vue it came with 12,000 or 12 months warranty we had it in the dealer many times,of course the air bag light wouldn't stay on. They told us they adjusted sensor code b0092. Every other when there was something wrong they replaced parts but not this air bag light. After the 12,000 warranty was up the air bag light stays on. I brought it the dealer where we purchased saturn after a $99.00 bill,2 yrs later the light is on. Ever once and a while if you twist and the light will go off. We are going to give this car to our daughter who is having a baby. Will it be safe for a family car? Thank you
I bought a 2007 saturn vue from a dealer as well and my air bag on the passenger side comes on a lot to. It is on when no one is sitting in it but turns off when someone does sit in it. No matter the size or weigh of that person sometimes it will say it is on sometimes it will say it has been turned off. Not sure if there is really anything wrong with the airbag or it is just a light telling you there is. On-star says that airbags are fine though. Little concerned if there is something wrong with the airbags because that is one heck of a lawsuit they will have on there hands if we are to ever get in an accent and the airbags did not deploy. If it was indeed a manufacturing issue and it seems to be the case here, it should be fixed for free and fast for safety reasons. *tr
I bought a 2007 saturn vue from a dealer as a used vehicle. Shortly after, the airbag light started coming on. Sometimes it would go off and it has persisted to the point now that it doesn't go off at all. When the problem first occurred, I consulted the owners manual and found notes written in it by the previous owner about the same problem. It was indicated that it was fixed (sensor) but started again shortly after. Every month my on star reports indicate a problem which requires immediate attention. I had it seen at a gm dealer they want another $500 to fix it.
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 $265.00 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??

The passenger airbag light comes on intermittently regardless of speed, condition, or time of day. Seats have not been wet from spillage or abuse. This failure causes me concern because I don't know what is next. And, is the airbag going to activate.
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.
Air bag light on dash illuminated if the heated seat is not toggled regularly from low to high. On permanently and does not recognize seat occupant if heated seat is left in the off position. Heated seat does not work even if in the low or high position.
I have two 2007 saturn vehicles, a vue and an ion the air bag light comes on periodically. I took the vue to a dealer and they said the sensor was bad and wanted to charge about $500.00 to fix it. The ion has the same problem but I haven't taken it in to be checked. It looks to me like there is a problem with the 2007 saturns and should be fixed by gm.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 saturn vue. The contact stated that the horn would independently sound. The contact disconnected the fuse and the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for inspection. The dealer advised replacing the battery. The battery was replaced but to no avail. The dealer then advised that the air bag module was defective and causing the failure. The manufacturer offered a 50 percent discount on repairs. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 78,600 and the current mileage was approximately 78,700.
Airbag light stays on for my 2007 saturn vue 6 cylinder awd.
Heard what seemed to be road noise was told by dealer it was my tires after changing tires was told it was a front end bearing and was replaced by the dealer. Two months later same noise, returned to dealer and was told the other side bearing was defective it was replaced. I still have what sounds like drive train noise but get no acknowledgement from dealer. Air bag sensor on passenger side is defective, doors are aligned so poorly that daylight can be seen through the seal. This is a 2 year old vehicle and has been well maintained. I fear that I may be jeopardizing my family's safety by driving it. Is there a lemon law or any options for me.
Passenger air bag sensor faulty. Goes on when no pressure in the seat, seat belt light flashes, turns off randomly when passenger in vehicle. Took to local saturn dealership, they could not "duplicate" problem so did nothing. Taking back again this week to try for resolution.
Passenger air bag fails to acknowledge lightweight passengers though they are over 100 pounds. Failure of about 85% of the time noted shortly after purchase. At first the saturn dealer in gresham said they would do nothing about it, then making it clear this was not acceptable they replaced the sensor. Before long the same problem occasional occurred, now it has become over 50% of the time. Sometimes going off after driving a while, sometimes cycling off and on.
Tl*the contact owns a 2007 saturn vue. After purchasing the vehicle in july of 2007, the contact had to take the vehicle back to get a new one three hours later. When he took the vehicle to the dealer for 5,000 mile servicing, the dealer discovered a recall, informed the contact, and made the repairs. Within twenty days, the contact had to have three hybrid electrical wiring harnesses replaced, the entire vehicle was re-wired, and a new transmission was installed. All the instrument panel and air bag lights illuminated intermittently. The dealer stated that if the air bag light is illuminated, it is inoperable. On two separate occasions, the contact had to have the failures repaired again. The dealer stated that there was a new recall related to the emission, but they could not perform the repair. They recommended a shop (freemond auto) and they replaced the factory fitting for that make and model. While at a traffic light with the brake pedal depressed, the engine shut off and restarted. The vehicle rolled back while the brake pedal was still depressed. The contact is still experiencing wiring and transmission failure. The failure mileage was 4,800 and current mileage was 16,311.

I have less than 12,000 miles on this car and it has repeatedly been in the shop. The entire transmission has been replaced, all electrical suddenly dies, the hybrid has stopped working several times. The airbags have had to be fixed. There is a constant problem.
I ran into a building and my airbags did not deploy. Front end hit- broke into wall, brick column smashed front of car. I believe there is something wrong with the air bag system in my vehicle. It's a 2007 saturn vue--purchased in february of 2007.
