2005 Saturn Ion Exterior lighting Problems

“A few years ago my left turn signal went out for the first time but I just replaced it which took a few trys before it actually worked, over the last couple of years I have had more problems with that turn signal working. Everytime I have to replace it, it is a hassle trying to get it to work for it to only go out again within a week or two. I am out there again today replacing this thing. I have read about recalls on 2004 ions, have there not been any for this problem for the 2005?”

“My right turn signal flashes fast and will not work. I changed the bulb the same problem nobody seem to know what to do about this , from the amount of complaints I think g m need to fix this problem.”

“Similar to the 04 Saturn ions, my 2005 ION has the same front turn signal problem. The bulb quits flashing, but is not burned out, it is losing contact in the socket. I called Saturn, but they do not have a recall for my VIN, bit it is the exact same problem as with the 04.”

“Ignition switch recognition began to deteriorate. When trying to start the car, the anti-theft would come on. I would have to wait hours. This would happen in cold and rainy weather. Key would get locked in ignition with accessories on and not go off. Battery would die. When jumping the car the key would still be locked in the on position and begin turning on and off violently and rapidly until key was able to be removed. Car blew fuse while driving on highway. Max speed reduced to 30 MPH. …”

“2005 Saturn ION turn signal lights stopped blinking, but lamps not burned out. Gm dealer recommends replacement of the body control module and extensive and costly repair! Can't find parts. Cannot properly operate vehicle with expired inspection sticker required in la.”
