2008 Saturn Outlook Air Bags & Restraints Problems

Over this summer I went to start my truck and all the airbags pop out expect for the steering wheel air bag and dashboard air bag

The contact owns a 2008 Saturn Outlook. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the airbag warning light illuminated and remained illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to a local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the MDS was not communicating with the airbags. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 180,000.

SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AT RANDOM. EVEN IF A PERSON IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE PASSENGER SEAT AIRBAG SHOWS OFF. TOOK IT TO A DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THE PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE NEEDS REPLACED AND WOULD COST ABOUT $800.00 TO REPAIR IT AND THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY IF WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH.

THE PASSENGER SERVICE AIR BAG STAYS ON THE DASHBOARD WHEN YOU START IT AND IT WON'T TURN OFF.

THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY INCIDENT SUCH AS AUTO ACCIDENTS. IT JUST THAT MY DASH LIGHTS UP STATING TO SERVICE MY AIR BAGS. ALSO WHEN STEPPING ON MY BRAKE THE SEAT BELTS DON'T SEEM TO HOLD YOU . SATURN CUSTOMERS HAVE COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS ON INTERNET, SO IT IS NOT A LONE CASE. SATURN COMPANY WENT OUT OF BUSINESS. WHO DO I COMPLAIN TO

TOOK TO GET MY VEHICLE SCANNED AND GOT THE CODE B0074 FOR THE SECOND ROW MIDDLE SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER. I WAS LOOKING UP ANY RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE AND BACK IN JUNE 2014 THERE WAS A RECALL FOR PRETENSIONERS. BUT WHEN I CALLED A DEALER THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE VEHICLE.

I PUR HASED THIS SUV FROM.ALLMANS IN MARTINSBURG WV EARLY MARCH OF 2018. MY SERVICE AIRBAG STABIL BRAKES ALL LIGHT COME ON. MY AXLES ARE READY SNAP. WHILE IM DRIVI G MY CAR DASH LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND MY CAR WILL SLOW DOWN AUTOMATICALLY

THE LIGHT FOR SERVICE AIR BAGS COMES ON AND THEN GOES OFF. I'M NOT SURE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE OR NOT. BUT IF SO THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED.

AIRBAGS LIGHT HAS BEEN STAY ON FOR A WHOLE YEAR SINCE WE BOUGHT IT IN AUGUST 2017 AND WE COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT WHY IT STAYS ON. BRAKES LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND OFF AND WE HAD THE BRAKES SHECKED AND EVERYTHING IS FINE. STABILITY TRASK LIGHT KEEPS TURNING ON AND OFF. WHY??

I PURCHASED A 2008 SATURN OUTLOOK NEW AT MILES. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR HAD DIFFICULTIES RIGHT OFF THE BAT.SOMETHING WITH WHERE MY KIDS WERE SITTING IN THE SEAT (TEENS). THE SENSOR WOULD GO ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. AFTER SOME TIME, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN A FEW MONTHS AGO AND THEY SAID I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE SENSOR FOR ABOUT $1,200. I WAS UNABLE TO DO THAT (ALSO THINKING THAT IT WOULD FAIL AGAIN). SO, WE ARE DRIVING AROUND WITH WHAT APPEARS IS NO PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. THERE HAVE BEEN VARIOUS SERVICE BULLETINS FOR THE AIRBAG ISSUE AND NUMEROUS ONLINE COMPLAINTS. I THINK THAT THIS WARRANTS A RECALL.

MY SATURN 2008 ENGINE LIGHT IS FLASHING AND MY SUV IS RUNNING BAD, MY AIRBAG SERVICE LIGHT IS ON AND MY TRACTION LIGHT IS ALSO ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN OUTLOOK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SWITCH AND CONTROL MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,648. UPDATED 03/03/17*LJ *TR

SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON

THE SENSOR IN MY PASSENGER SEAT DOES NOT SENCE THAT A PASSENGER IS SITTING THERE, THEREFORE WILL NOT DEPLOY IN A CRASH. THE CAR HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW BUT I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE I ASSUMED THAT IT WAS BECAUSE MY CHILDREN WERE TOO LIGHT TO REGISTER. SO I MADE THEM SIT IN THE BACK. NOW THAT THEY ARE TEENAGERS THEY SIT IN THE FRONT, THE AIRBAG ON OFF LIGHTS FLIPS BACK AND FORTH TO ON OFF WHILE DRIVING NOW THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. CONTACTED GM THEY SAID MY CAR IS TOO OLD AND WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED. THE DEALERSHIP WANTS 900.00 TO FIX WHICH I DON'T HAVE. TO ME THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS FOR A FRONT SEAT PASSENGER.

I HAVE AN AIRBAG LIGHT GOING ON MY DASHBOARD. I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE (PPS) PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM MODULE AND WOULD COST ~$1500 TO REPLACE. I HAVE SEEN OTHER PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS AND WHY IT ISN'T PART OF A RECALL. CAN I GET INFORMATION IF THIS WILL BE SUBJECT OF A RECALL? THANKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 SATURN OUTLOOK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT REGISTER PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SYSTEM MODULE WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

MY SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON FOR A PERIOD OF TIME AFTER HAVING BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR THE RECENT AIR BAG RECALL. I THINK IT STARTED AFTER THEY DID THE LAST RECALL ON THE WIRING HARNESS CONNECTORS. NOW, I AM TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT RELATED TO THE RECALL, BUT THAT THE PASSENGER PRESENCE MODULE MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. CODE B0081. THE COST TO REPAIR/REPLACE IS $780. I HAVE SEEN MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF THIS SAME PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DEFECT AND AN IMPORTANT SAFETY CONCERN. I WAS ADVISED THE PASSENGER AIR BAG MAY OR MAY NOT DEPLOY.

WARNING LIGHT SAYS 'SERVICE AIR BAG'. THIS IS A GM RECALL ITEM SINCE 2014. THIS LIGHT JUST STARTED ON MY CAR. GM WILL NOT SERVICE MY CAR AS IT SAYS IT IS NOT AN OPEN RECALL ITEM FOR MY VIN. PLEASE HELP.

MY PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON, ON THE DASH AND WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT SOMETIMES IT WILL SHOW ON BUT MOST OF THE TIME IT'S OFF. WE TOOK IT IN TO HAVE THE RECALL FOR THE WIRING DONE BUT IT STILL STAYS ON.

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG INDICATOR SAYS "OFF" AND / OR AN ERROR "SERVICE AIRBAG" COMES ON WITH A RED SYMBOL AS WELL. THE DEALER INDICATES IT IS A DEFECTIVE PASSENGER AIR BAG SEAT SENSOR. THE VEHICLE HAD A TSB FOR A AIR BAG WIRING HARNESS IN 2012 AND THIS WAS DONE. I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS AND OTHER RECALLS FOR GM ON OTHER VEHICLES FOR THIS ISSUE. I WAS SHOCKED THAT THE STANDARD WARRANTY OF 36,000 MILES IS ALL THAT IS REQUIRED FOR A CRITICAL SAFETY SYSTEM! EMISSION COMPONENTS HAVE MORE STRINGENT REQUIREMENTS BY LAW..... THIS IS VERY CONCERNING, AS IT IMPACTS PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE AND IS INTERMITTENT. IT COULD CAUSE THE AIRBAG NOT TO DEPLOY OR TO DEPLOY WITH MORE FORCE, KILLING A CHILD IN THE SEAT.
