Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH MY CAR EVEN AFTER I HAVE HAD SOME RECALLS DONE TO IT. THE BIGGEST ISSUE IS WHEN I AM DRIVING OR STATIONARY WITH MY CAR ON, THE CAR RUMBLES AND FEELS LIKE IT IS TUGGING BACKWARDS. THE CYLINDER 2 KEEPS MISFIRING (P0302). I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL SATURN IONS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. OVER THE PAST FOUR YEARS THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM CONSISTENTLY. THERE ARE PERIODS WHERE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN MUCH AND SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE. FURTHERMORE, MY CAR STILL DOESN'T TURN ON/OFF ALL THE WAY SOMETIMES AND THE IGNITION SWITCH MESSES UP.
