NHTSA Complaint #10504238 — 2007 SATURN ION

2007 SATURN ION I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT 02/03/2013, WITH VERY MINIMAL DAMAGE TO MY LEFT, FRONT PANEL. ALMOST A MONTH LATER, THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND DROVE FINE FOR 3 DAYS. AFTER THE 3RD DAY MY CAR WOULD TURN OVER BUT IT WOULD NOT START. I HAD THE ORIGINAL REPAIR CENTER INSPECT MY VEHICLE AND THEY TOLD ME THE TIMING CHAIN WAS OFF, BUT IT WAS NOT RELATED TO THE CAR ACCIDENT. I GOT A SECOND OPINION FROM ANOTHER MECHANIC AND HE ADVISED ME THAT THE TIMING CHAIN WAS NOT DUE TO MY ACCIDENT. I'VE NEVER HAD ANY TROUBLE WITH MY VEHICLE BEFORE THIS INCIDENT AND AFTER SEARCHING THE WEB AND FINDING NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT TIMING CHAIN ISSUES, I'M CURIOUS AS TO WHY THERE'S NO RECALL. *TR
