NHTSA Complaint #10454161 — 2004 SATURN ION

WHEN STARTING THE SATURN ON A COLD MORNING, THE IGNITION FAILS TO START THE CAR. I GET A SERVICE MESSAGE. AFTER WAITING ABOUT 10 MINUTES THE CAR WILL START AS IF THE SECURITY WAS RESETTING ITSELF. I'VE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET. GM WILL NOT OWN UP TO A FAULTY PRODUCT THAT LEAVES 100S OF PEOPLE STRANDED. AS TIME GOES BY THIS PROBLEM OCCURS AT RANDOM TIMES, EVEN ON WARM DAYS. I WOULD LIKE A RECALL APPROVED FOR THIS MASSIVE SAFETY PROBLEM. IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IN AN EMERGENCY OUR CARS SHOULDN'T HAVE TO SIT FOR AN ADDITIONAL TEN MINUTES OR STALL US IN A POTENTIALLY BAD NEIGHBORHOOD. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO CORRECT ITSELF AFTER THIS IGNITION SWITCH INSIDE OF THE STEERING COLUMN HAS BEEN REPLACED BASED ON HUNDREDS OF TESTAMENTS. I WANT TO ADD THAT MY SATURN WHEN IT WAS NEW HAD OTHER RECALL ISSUES LIKE THE AUTOMATIC LIGHT SENSOR. ALSO, ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
