“I purchased a 2007 Saturn VUE in 2009. I was never told or made aware that the tie rod attached to the two front tires was almost broken. One day driving very locally, it broke and was hanging there til I got home. I took it to the mechanic and he removed it telling me I had to replace it which will cost $323. I was also told by my insurance company this vehicle was in two accidents prior to my purchasing it but I was never told of that either.”
NHTSA complaint #10403968, filed 2011-06, 70,000 miles“Driving ~20mph on dirt road for 7 miles when smelled hot oil. Determined that both shocks had blown out their grease and there was a significant amount of smoke coming out of both rear shocks. Shocks stopped smoking within 30 minutes of letting car set, shocks are no longer functional. Wondering if it would have caught fire if we hadn't stopped immediately.”
NHTSA complaint #10324499, filed 2010-04, 53,000 miles“Front stabilizer bar broke under normal driving conditions. 1 inch thick bar snapped leaving parts dragging, ABS system inactive and car unexpectedly difficult to control. Luckily the car was not being driven at a high rate of speed.”
NHTSA complaint #10435614, filed 2011-11, 85,000 miles“Driving along at highway speeds had to avoid hitting a vehicle after being cut off. This resulted in using greater than usual brake forceat that moment, heard pop noise which came from rear of vehicle then vehicle veered to right at the same instant steering wheel started to move clockwise and counter clockwise rapidly. Had to bring vehicle under 35 MPH to get steering under control (almost lost control into cement barrier) when trying to accelerate back to speed limit vehicle vibrated violently for almost 2 miles until I was able to get off highway. …”
NHTSA complaint #10712115, filed 2015-04, 115,000 miles“Pulled out of a gas station on march 20, 2013 and heard something fall in the front of the car and drag the ground. Pulled off to see what it was and there was a bar hanging down from the car. Tested the car out and it was driving and steering fine so drove home. Tried to go to a GM dealership (dublin byers, dublin, oh). Their hours said they were open until 6:00 p.m and it was 5:45 p.m. Beeped the horn and they did not answer. Was taking the car to a repair shop on the 22nd to get a wheel bearing replaced and called and left them a message to tell them what happened. …”
