Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A 2007 SATURN ION IN AUGUST 2007. APPROX 1-2 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT ALMOST RESULTING IN A CRASH WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE SATURN DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT, AND THEY PROMPTLY FIXED THE PROBLEM; SO I THOUGHT. NOV 28, 2010 I WAS DRIVING ON THE EISENHOWER EXPRESSWAY AND MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN. BECAUSE IT WAS EARLY SUNDAY AFTER THANKSGIVING THERE WASN'T MUCH TRAFFIC. BUT THIS INCIDENT COULD HAVE TURNED TRAGIC. I REQUEST THAT INVESTIGATION BE MADE INTO THE 2007 SATURN ION. EVEN THOUGH GM CLOSED THIS PRODUCT LINE (WISH I WOULD'VE KNEW THEIR PLAN BEFORE MY PURCHASE), I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT THEY WOULD INVESTIGATE THIS SINGLE INCIDENT, AS THERE COULD BE MANY OTHER CONSUMERS WITH THE SAME EXPERIENCE. NOT TO MENTION THE POTENTIAL LEGAL RAMIFICATIONS IF IT IS FOUND THAT THE IONS ARE DEFECTIVE. IF I JUST GOT A LEMON CAR...THEN SO BE IT. *TR
