| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Our new 2007 saturn vue green line hybrid suv had a check engine and battery light at 2334 mileage. we luckily were in town and parked the car in our driveway, which was then toed to the dealership for repair. this could have resulted in failure of the vehicle in traffic or on an interstate with catastrophic consequences. saturn had a tech doc#1978388 and tsb#07-06-03-004 as noted on our service receipt. it is very disturbing that they knew the problem existed with these vehicles and did not perform a engine harness jumper replacement and reprogram before the new vehicle was sold. i would refer the nhtsa to the edmund townhall forum at the web address below which has similar complaints, which also list incidences of the saturn vue green line stopping in traffic due to the same problem. http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/webx/.f0d7fdb/ *jb i believe this is a potentially life-threatening safety problem that needs to be addressed. |
