2003 SATURN VUE Electrical System Problems

October 12, 2020 IG Burton stated the recall was complete, given original keys. I went to Willis Chevrolet & Buick recall was completed on April 15, 2022, new keys were issued.

WHEN MY HORN FUSE IN MY HORN IS NON STOP BLARING ALSO MY FRONT WIPERS FUSE IN GOOD AND MY WIPES ARE NOT WORKING

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE POWER STEERING SUDDENLY GOES OUT, MAKING STEERING VERY, VERY DIFFICULT. IT HAPPENS MORE OFTEN IN COOLER WEATHER AND USUALLY TURNING VEHICLE OFF AND PARKING FOR A LITTLE WHILE CORRECTS THE PROBLEM. TRIED TO CHECK POWER STEERING FLUID, WAS TOLD IT IS AN ELECTRIC SYSTEM.

MY KEYS COME OUT OF THE IGNITION , I KEEP HAVING ELECTRICAL FAILURES AND MY PIPES KEEP MESSING UP

TAKATA RECALL SECURITY LIGHT COMES ON REDUCED POWER WHILE DRIVING ALL GAS AND SPEED GAUGES ARE ALL TURNED TO THE RIGHT CAR DOSENT MOVE WHEN CUT ON NO POWER STEERING WHEEL GETS HARD UNABLE TO TURN OR STEER THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 3 MONTHS NOW

IT STARTED AFTER TURNING ON MY HEADLIGHTS. I WAS DRIVING HOME AND SEEN AND SMELLED LIKE HE SMOKE, IT WAS COMING FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH THE WIRES WERE BURNING. I TURNED OFF CAR AND CALLED MY BOYFRIEND. HE UNCLAMPED THE IGNITION SWITCH AND CHECKED, THE WIRES WERE BURNED. ONCE I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN MY DASH LIGHTS WERE NOT ON NOR THE TAIL LIGHTS BUT THE HEADLIGHTS WORKED, HAZARD LIGHTS AND BLINKERS ALL WORKED. SO I DROVE HOME WITH MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON AND MY BOYFRIEND FOLLOWING BEHIND ME. HAD ALL FUSES CHECKED, REPLACED IGNITION SWITCH, TAIL LIGHT WIRING HARNESS AND THE FUSE BOX, STILL NO DASH LIGHTS NOR TAIL LIGHTS. I DID CALL YOUR COMPANY FOR HELP AND WAS TOLD BY THE AGENT THAT HE COULD NOT HELP. I DID RECENTLY FOUND OUT ABOUT SOME KIND OF RECALL. THE INFORMATION I FOUND IS BELOW. RECALL 05V245000 ELECTRICAL & LIGHTS,...

THE HORN WAS SOUNDING ALL THE TIME WAS INTERMITTENT NOW ON ALL THE TIME , HAD TO REMOVE THE FUSE

ALSO MY KEY WHICH WAS BRAND NEW LAST JUNE HAS HAD ALL OF THE SILVER METAL COATING SCRAPED OFF OF IT BY MY IGNITION SWITCH.

2003 SATURN VUE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TRANSMISSION AND KEY PROBLEMS. *SMD

THE IGNITION SWITCH KEEPS FAILING AND IT IS VERY COSTLY. WHEN I STOP AND TURN THE IGNITION OFF IT WON'T RESTART WITHOUT SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. IT ALSO STICKS AND THE KEY IS HARD TO REMOVE. I HAVE THREE TIMES REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH AND THIS COSTLY PROCESS IN NOT HOLDING UP. TO DATE. I KNOW THAT IT IS NOT PART OF THE IGNITION SWITCH RECALLS BUT IT IS A RECALL ISSUE. MANY MECHANICS TELL ME THEY KNOW THIS ISSUE BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO HAVE ADDRESSED IT. I HOPE THAT I AM NOT ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN IT CAUSES A DISASTER FOR ME AND OTHERS. *JS

I BELIEVE THE SCOPE OF THE GENERAL MOTORS RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE THIS MAKE AND MODEL. I HAVE NOTIFIED GENERAL MOTORS AND RECEIVED A CASE NUMBER,[XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

MY CAR KEPT CUTTING OFF AND WOULDN'T START. SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM AND THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION SENSOR IN IT.. NOW IT SOMETIMES DON'T WANT TO CRANK, THEY CLAIM THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND THY CANT FIGURE IT OUT. *TR

CAR STARTS, HOWEVER CHECK ENGINE, BRAKE, SERVICE LIGHT ALL COME ON. POWER STEERING DOES NOT WORK, NOR DOES REAR WIPER. HAVE IN PAST BEEN ABLE TO RESET THE ISSUE BY PULLING AND REPLACING FUSES WHICH SOLVES ISSUE TEMPORARILY. HOWEVER THAT FIX NO LONGER WORKING. ALSO, NEED TO WRENCH HARD ON STEERING WHEEL TO BE ABLE TO START IGNITION. ONCE ON, ABLE TO REMOVE KEY WHILE VEHICLE IS STILL RUNNING. *TR

STEERING WHEEL NEEDS TO BE MUSCLED TO ALLOW KEY TO BE INSERTED AND TURNED FOR IGNITION WHEN STARTING. HOWEVER, KEY EASILY FALLS OUT WHILE ENGINE IS RUNNING AND CAR IS BEING OPERATED. *TR

VEHICLE CONTINUALLY DIES AS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT ANY RATE OF SPEED. THE IGNITION SWITCH AND CYLINDER HAVE BOTH BEEN REPLACED WITH NO SUCCESS. ALSO, NEW BATTERY INSTALLED. VEHICLE STILL CONTINUES TO STALL AT ANY RATE OF SPEED. *TR

MY KEY SOMETIMES WON'T GO INTO IGNITON AND ONCE IT DOES, IT SOMETIMES FALLS OUT WHILE I AM DRIVING OR THE CAR LOSES POWER WHILE I'M DRIVING. IS THIS PROBLEM A PART OF THE GM RECALLS FOR 2003 SATURNS ?? *TR

WHILE TRAVELING AT ABOUT 45 MILES PER HOUR, THE ENGINE STOPPED AND THERE WERE NO INDICATORS. AFTER SAFELY PULLING THE COASTING VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I NOTICED THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH WITH KEY IN IT, HAD MOVED TO THE OFF POSITION. THIS SEEMS TO BE THE SAME ISSUE CURRENTLY BEING ADDRESSED BY GM BUT THE 2003 VUE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. *TR

VEHICLE WOULD INEXPLICABLY AND WITHOUT WARNING COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN ,KILLING POWER TO ALL COMPONENTS. SOMETIMES IF YOU STOPPED AND PUT IT INTO PARK IT WOULD RESTART. OTHER TIMES IT WOULD TAKE A WHILE. MY MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IT WAS QUITE ALARMING AND CAUSED ME TO GET RID OF THE VEHICLE A COUPLE MONTHS AFTER BUYING IT AND ABSORBING A SUBSTANTIAL LOSS. *TR

IGNITION LOCKS UP AND CANNOT TURN TO START CAR. CAN LOOSEN UP BY WIGGLING STEERING WHEEL ,GEAR SHIFT OR KEY. HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS BUT COMPLAINTS WERE IGNORED. NOW HEARING ABOUT GM'S IGNITION RECALL . I'M VERY CONCERNED. *TR

WE HAVE HAD THE CAR NOT START A COUPLE OF TIMES. WHEN THE KEY IS PUT INTO THE IGNITION ON OUR VUE THE CAR DOESN'T WANT TO TURN OVER. AFTER TAKING IT TO A DEALER THE CAR WAS FOUND TO BE SENDING IMPROPER SIGNALS TO THE ENGINE THAT SHUT OFF THE FUEL PUMP AND WOULDN'T ALLOW THE CAR TO START. IT SEEMED THAT SWITCHING THE KEY OUT TO THE SECOND KEY THAT CAME WITH THE CAR IT WAS FIXED BUT ON 02/25 THE SAME ISSUES STARTED AGAIN AND THE CAR WILL START AND RUN FINE ONCE IT DECIDES TO TURN ON. AFTER SEEING THE RECALL INFORMATION FROM GM I BELIEVE THE ISSUE WE HAVE IS THE PRECURSOR TO THEY IGNITION ISSUE WITH THE OTHER 2003-2007 MODELS OF SATURNS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY LOSE POWER, THE SECURITY LIGHT BLINKS 3 TIMES THEN THE CAR WILL EITHER REGAIN POWER OR SHUT OFF. *TR

I HAVE A SATURN VUE 2003 SOMEONE WAS SITTING IN PASSENGER THEY THOUGHT I HAD MY CAR IN PARK AND THEY TRIED TO OPEN THE DOOR AND WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN PARK THE PASSENGER DOOR WONT OPEN FROM INSIDE SO I WENT OUT AND TRIED TO OPEN THE PASSENGER FROM THE OUTSIDE. I WAS ABLE TO OPEN WITH THE REMOTE NOW I CAN'T GET IT TO OPEN WITH THE REMOTE IT HAS TO DO WITH SECURITY SYSTEM. *TR

MUCH REGRET I EVER PURCHASED THIS SATURN VUE 2003, I LEFT MY HOME YESTERDAY WAS LEFT STRANDED IN THE ROAD AS THE TRANSMISSION STARTED FELT LIKE SKIPPING AND WHEN I HAD TO STOP FOR A VEHICLE COMING IN THE ROAD IT WOULDN'T DRIVE AT ALL! WOULDN'T GO IN GEAR FOR THE DRIVE OR REVERSE!! SO SOMEONE CALLED A SHERIFF. I THEN CALLED A FRIEND WHO HAD TO COME AND PUSH VEHICLE OUT OF ROAD TRAFFIC. THIS TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED IN 2010 IT'S AS IF IT WAS NEVER DONE! THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION FOR WORK SO NEEDLESS TO SAY I AM OUT OF WORK YESTERDAY, AND TODAY!!! CALLING SATURN SERVICE AT 7:30 AM SURE THEY ARE GOING TO JUMP RIGHT ON IT (SARCASM). THE PAST MONTH THE ELECTRICAL WILL BLINK ON AND OFF. THEN AFTER A WHILE OF DRIVING IT GOES COMPLETELY OUT. UNTIL THE NEXT DRIVE THEN...

I NOTICE THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK WHEN I STARTED MY CAR THE AIR BAG LIGHT AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON IN MY VEHICLE. I CALLED MY MECHANIC IMMEDIATELY AND HE TOLD ME THAT SEEMED BE BE A WIRING OR MECHANICAL ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. HE STATED THAT SATURN DID HAVE A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE FOR THIS ISSUE AND I NEEDED TO GET A HOLD OF SOMEONE IMMEDIATELY. THAT IS WHY I AM FILING HIS COMPLAINT ASKING FOR IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE WITH THE CRITICAL ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE. PLEASE IF SOMEONE CAN CONTACT IMMEDIATELY. *TR
