NHTSA Complaint #10202235 — 2007 SATURN VUE

HELLO, I AM WRITING CONCERNING ISSUES WITH MY BRAND NEW SATURN GREEN-LINE HYBRID VUE. I PURCHASED IT ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO, AND THERE HAVE BEEN SOME FRIGHTENING ISSUES. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE ABOUT THE VOLUNTARY RECALL OF THE GREEN-LINE HYBRID VUE- THE FIX DOES NOT WORK. IT HAS PUT OUR FAMILY IN HARM'S WAY. I RECEIVED A VOLUNTARY RECALL NOTICE TO FIX THE ELECTRIC HARNESS WIRING ON MY HYBRID, TO PREVENT PROBLEMS. WELL, I TOOK IT IN TODAY, AND NOT LESS THAN 1 MINUTE AFTER I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON (FIRST TIME EVER). THEN ABOUT 8 MINUTES LATER, ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE IN THE CAR... ALL ELECTRONICS FAILED- RADIO LIGHTS, DASH LIGHTS, HEADLIGHTS, ENGINE WOULDN'T CHANGE GEARS, LIGHTS WERE FLASHING ON AND OFF, SPEEDOMETER DIDN'T WORK, THEN THEY WERE ALL FLICKERING, THEN THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT, ONSTAR DIED, RADIO DIED, POWER STEERING DIED! ME AND MY FAMILY WERE IN THE CAR AND ALMOST DIED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION BECAUSE I COULDN'T BARELY STEER THE CAR!! WELL, FROM TAKING MY NEW CAR IN TO PREVENT A PROBLEM, TO THE SATURN TEAM ALMOST KILLING US, I AM FAR FROM HAPPY. PLEASE LET WHOEVER NEEDS TO KNOW THIS, KNOW IMMEDIATELY. IF WE HAD GOTTEN ON THE HIGHWAY AS PLANNED, WE MOST LIKELY WOULDN'T BE TALKING BECAUSE WE WOULD HAVE LOST CONTROL ON THE HIGHWAY. *JB
