“Service air bag light on dashboard was on and passenger airbag off light on ever since I owned the car. The car was bought used with 122k miles on it so I'm not sure when this issue first arrived on this make and model. I have done some research into the issue and it seems recalls are out for this issue on lots of 2007 Pontiac g5s I also had experienced the key getting stuck in the ignition in november 2016”

NHTSA complaint #10946832, filed 2017-01, 122,000 miles

“On october 2, 2015 when I picked up my vehicle, I asked shawn thomas if they had reprogramed my door to work with the new ignition cylinder that was replaced last time it was in for that recall. When I picked up my car from that recall service, they gave me my original Pontiac key and 2 new keys to the ignition. When I dripped it off for the most recent recall (fuel pump leak, fuel tank leak), I was told they should have reprogramed my doors to go with the new ignition and they would do that while it was in this time. It was on my receipt that they did reprogram but they did not. …”

“At the end of september 2013 I noticed a disturbing noise when I started my car. It was a loud rattling sound that lasted about 3 seconds when cranking my car. To my surprise the timing chain had snapped in half. On october 20-21, 2013, the timing chain set was removed and replaced by a trusted mechanic who informed me that I was lucky the engine had not been damaged. My complaint in question is why at only 54,540 miles did the timing chain snap in half? My next question is have there been any other complaints made by other owners or manufacturers of this model relating to this issue? …”

“While traveling I lost assisted steering to my vehicle, this was while traveling at a low speed, and while cornering. This mechanical failure caused my vehicle to travel off the road causing personal damages. I've since learned of manufacture recalls that describe this situation. I've experienced it once prior while in traffic. other than towing it home I've no contact with any insurance or other people and I cannot seem to sell it in its current condition. The ignition problem is present every time I insert my key or remove it. I've not yet had any inspection done to it.”
