NHTSA Complaint #10272475 — 2005 SATURN ION

I BOUGHT A 2005 SATURN ION LAST AUGUST 2008. ON NOVEMBER 2008, I EXPERIENCED A DIFFICULTY ON STARTING THE CAR. SO I BROUGHT IT TO SATURN DUBLIN FOR A CHECK UP AND REPAIR, AND THEY DID ALL THE TEST FOR THE CAR AND INFORMED THAT THEY HAVE TO REPLACE THE IGNITION OF THE CAR AS THIS IS THE FINDINGS OF THEIR MECHANIC.. I AGREED AS I THOUGHT THIS WAS THE AUTHORIZED DEALER MECHANIC, I PAID FOR $700+, FOR REPAIR, LABOR AND PARTS.. BUT RECENTLY LAST WEEK, MAY 2009, MY CAR WOULD NOT START AGAIN..I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND HAD IT CHECKED.. THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, IT STARTED WHEN THEY CHECKED AND THEY ASKED ME TO PAY $130 FOR THE CHECK UP..WHICH I PAID. A FEW DAYS AFTER I WAS AT WORK, WHICH IS IN UNION CITY, 22 MILES AWAY FROM MY HOUSE AND WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO GO HOME,MY CAR WOULD NOT START GAIN.. SAME PROBLEM AS BEFORE... HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED.. AS I RELAYED THIS TO MY BROTHER IN LAW... WE SEARCHED IN THE NET ON THE ISSUE AND CONCERNS AND FOUND OUT I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAD THESE PROBLEMS.. HUNDREDS OF US WERE VICTIMS OF THIS PROBLEM. NOW, I DID HAD A BAD JUDGMENT ON BUYING A SATURN CAR. *TR
