2009 Saturn Outlook Other or unknown Problems

“The ignition key won't turn off killing my battery. Had already paid to have fixed, but now a week later the key won't come out again. I have to remove the plastic column and manually depress the ignition plunger to turn key back all the way in order to turn acc off and remove key. Very aggravating issue. Local dealer not helpful at this point.”

“There is a recall for the linkage system, where the vehicle still rolls while in park. I am having this issue and a grinding sort of sound. The VIN is saying 0 unrepaired recalls on the website and I believe this issue is an ongoing problem of the previous recall in '09. While the vehicle was driving there was the sound that something was dragging, the vehicle was pulled to the side of the road to check but while in park the vehicle would still roll. The car had the emergency brake set in place at this moment.”

“After the ignition is shut off with either the key in or out of ignition, when the driver door is open the radio is supposed to turn off. Periodically the radio will stay of even after the door is opened. Most times, the radio will go off if the door is opened back up, but there have been some times that the radio never shuts off. The sensor is combined into the lock assembly. I have been checking forums for any chevy, gmc, Saturn, or other GM models and it seems to be a common problem. I also have a 05 chevy impala that is doing the same thing”

“I bought this 2009 Saturn Outlook yesterday from a used dealership they said there was nothing wrong with the car well I live over 100 miles away from where I bough it and about halfway home it’s it was dark outside I was driving on the highway going up a hill the motor was acting like it wanted to jump out f the car (I’m not sure exactly how to describe it) anyways it only did ur for just a second then stopped all went back to normal and today just died while driving and now it wont start wont even turn over”

“Past 5 years check engine light on. Replaces plugs 3x, converters 3x, and everything including ignition coils 2x, light still on, stating converters need replacing. Car has been in the shop more than a hospital has emergency room patients. Engine light would stay off for a week or two, now only for 30-40 miles. Emissions says car not ready for testing. Vehicle drives and runs perfectly, purrs like a kitten, but now can't pass emissions. Chevy, acura, repair shops, muffler shops and alley mechanics all baffled. …”
