2008 Saturn Sky Problems, complaints & recalls

the passenger seat air bag sensor was recalled. I took the car to dealer and they said they fixed the recall. now 3 years later, if a passenger sits in the seat the light comes on saying air bag sensor is ON one second later the light says the air bag sensor is OFF and the red air bag light in the dash comes on. -Should GM be responsible to repair it again at no charge ?

The contact owns a 2008 Saturn Sky. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the module kit, the OCS sensor, and the four retainers were faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the vehicle was previously repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V061000 (Air Bags); however, the vehicle had experienced the failure stated in the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

Had recall# 17036 performed for PPS system and dealer could not clear fault codes after adding tape to the PPS seat. Why will the dealer not complete the recall by making sure the faults are no longer present. 1- 004A-00 Communication fault 2- 0033-00 Internal electronic performance 1 3- 0031-00 Internal electronic performance 2 4- 0039-00 Internal electronic performance 1 5- 0034-00 Internal electronic performance 1 6- 0059-00 Preload failure region 1

Saturn SKY - Passenger presence system (PPS) Knapp Chevy claimed to have fixed Completed: 2020-10-31, but warning lights appeared and took the car in to check. Now, this issue is not covered and requires a 1200 dollar charge, which should be covered in the recall.

When pressing on the brakes in reverse, they fail to stop the resistance is very hard, like stepping on a brick, and it does nothing to slow the vehicle. I had to throw the emergency brake on and put the car in gear in order to stop it from rolling backwards.

reset air bags 7/22

Passenger presence seat sensor stop working and disabled passenger air bags due to issue from previous recall that was supposed to be fix.

During a low voltage condition the programming for the tpms and security features was lost. 2Nd time it happened. Dealer says it is a design problem that requires software update. I paid once for the update but the problem persists.

This light comes on and off random. Been doing this since I had the car. In many forums there is a lot of the same complaints

I am trying to replace the turbocharged unit but all 3 purchase had an internal crack. Is this a common problem unknown by consumers? Should I be worried that this problem will continue?

Instrument panel lights are not illuminated during daytime, making it difficult to see the speedometer, gas gauge, etc. This is true whether the car is in motion or not. The instrument panel lights should be on whenever the ignition switch is on.

When first starting engine in the morning or after vehicle sits for a bit, the breaks literally do not work. This is a known problem across the internet and one that nobody at the service department at any dealership has a clue how to fix. If my car rolls into the street of my steep inclined driveway? I'm dead. It happens every day. The attachment is one of thousands.

This is a continuation of the description of the "tpms system inoperative" for the same vin. When the vehicle battery is replaced as part of normal maintenance the tpms system fails to work. This problem has been acknowledged by general motors in bulletin 08-03-16-001b. Furthermore, the tpms system failure is not indicated to the driver through any warning indicator. The driver would be unaware of a tire with low pressure in this situation, potentially resulting in harm.

The 2008 saturn sky has a safety defect whereby the tpms (tire pressure monitoring system) becomes inoperative during general maintenance. The tire pressure display will not display any tire pressure data while the vehicle is stationary or moving. When the vehicle battery is replaced the rcdlr (remote control door lock lock receiver module) loses its keyless entry transmitter and tire pressure monitoring data. The rcdlr will no longer receive data from the tire pressure sensors in each tire rendering the system...

Gm recall 17036 - passenger airbag sensor defect. My sensor failed on 6/8/2018. The local dealer confirmed the failure and ordered parts under the recall on 6/15/2018. As of today, 7/18/2018, the part is still not available and no eta is provided. Gm refuses to reimburse me if I have the vehicle repaired or provide them with a genuine gm part for them to provide the repair. This is a recall that is not being addressed by gm and I am left with an unsafe car and no eta on repair.

I have been trying to complete my recall for 2 months now, and am told by all dealers that parts are not available from gm to make the recalled repairs. I consider this to be a situation in which the recall is not actually effective, and am making this notation to ensure that appropriate parties are held liable in the even that any damages result from gm's inability to execute this recall as required.

Please see attachments, bottom line, despite recall (17036-01: safety recall ' passenger presence system ' 2006-2010 pontiac solstice & 2007-2010 saturn sky) on passenger airbag sensing module, gm is refusing to honor the recall and its conditions.
