NHTSA Complaint #10259975 — 2008 SATURN AURA

I OWN A 2008 SATURN AURA XR. THE CAR HAS BEEN TROUBLE SINCE I HAVE TAKEN IT HOME. IT HAS HAD A TOTAL OF 8 PROBLEMS WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR, AND NOW HAS A PROBLEM THAT IS DANGEROUS AND SATURN HAS BEEN UNABLE TO CORRECT. THE CAR IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD WITH ONLY 14000 MILES. PERIODICALLY WHEN GOING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 55 MPH THE TRACTION AND STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM WILL ERROR. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE WHOLE CAR BEGINS TO SHAKE. THE ENGINE BEGINS STALLING OUT AND THE CAR BECOMES DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE. THE DEALERSHIP HAS NO IDEA WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THE CAR. I HAVE VOICED MY CONCERNS WITH GENERAL MOTORS, AND THEY WERE NEGATIVE AND UNRESPONSIVE. THEY HAVE EQUIPPED MY CAR WITH A MONITOR SO THEY ARE ABLE TO RECORD EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS. I REQUESTED THEM SUPPLY ME WITH A RENTAL CAR, FOR SAFETY REASONS UNTIL THE CAR IS FIXED. GM HAS DENIED MY REQUEST. I ASKED GM TO GUARANTEE IN WRITING THAT THE CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE, AND THEY WILL NOT. I HAVE ASKED GM TO REPLACE THE VEHICLE WHICH THEY HAVE ALREADY DENIED. I AM UNSURE WHAT TO DO FROM HERE, EXCEPT DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE, AS I CANNOT AFFORD TO PURCHASE ANOTHER NEW CAR. *TR
