2005 SATURN ION Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

DRIVER LIGHTS WILL NOT WORK SWITCHED BULB AND CHECKED FUSES

TAKATA RECALL WHEN I SLOW DOWN MY LIGHTS DIM VERY LOW. IT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT.

KEY WOULD GET LOCKED IN IGNITION WITH ACCESSORIES ON AND NOT GO OFF. BATTERY WOULD DIE. WHEN JUMPING THE CAR THE KEY WOULD STILL BE LOCKED IN THE ON POSITION AND BEGIN TURNING ON AND OFF VIOLENTLY AND RAPIDLY UNTIL KEY WAS ABLE TO BE REMOVED. CAR BLEW FUSE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY.

TURN VEHICLE OFF AND THE ELECTRONIC MECHANISM RESETS ITSELF AND WORKS UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IT SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING. TOOK VEHICLE TO SATURN DEALERSHIP, POWER STEERING MOTOR IS BURNED OUT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. ROUGHLY 1300.00. OR I CAN JUST DRIVE IT AS IS. TECH VOICED CONCERN THAT THE ELECTRONIC PROBLEMS IN THERE COULD BE VERY PROBLEMATIC BECAUSE THEY COULD GET HOT AND START A FIRE. UPON RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM N THESE MODELS, THERE SEEMS TO BE AN OVERABUNDANCE OF REPORTS OF THE SAME ISSUES. I CALLED GM AND REPORTED THE PROBLEM AND LET THEM KNOW THAT THERE SEEMED TO BE PROBLEMS WITH THESE PARTICULAR MODELS AND THAT THIS COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE IT HAS TO DO WITH STEERING THE VEHICLE, AND THAT SINCE...
