We bought our 2005 Saturn Ion used Sept. 4, 2012, (87,812) before even could take off lot they had to install an ignition cylinder and cut new key, and the throttle was stuck could press all the way to floor, and would only get up to about 20mph. This was also fixed. (or so we thought). Since our purchase, we still have trouble with the key getting stuck, it not turning off with car still running, or the car won't start, it happens so much that our daughter who drives it just figures that's they way it's suppose to be, because when take back to dealer either it won't do it for them or doesn't do it for a month or so. Now the warranty has ran out so if it happens again they told us we had to take care of, well it happened again today, she parked would not shut off, called dealership, they can't do anything because GM hasn't given them recall yet! was in accident on Jan. 2, 2014 front end air bags did not deploy! not sure why not!!! this July was coming home and driving down road car just shut off while driving about 30mph and had to manually try to get car off road without hurting car or anyone else's car, after sometime got car to start again and got it home, called dealership their response if happens again bring it in. And still to this date sometimes her throttle will stick, as a parent I'm holding my breath every time she leaves our drive in this vehicle. Please help soon.

My husband was driving my 05 Saturn Ion 2 quad coupe home from work on the interstate.traffic stopped, came to complete stop vehicle behind did not brake and rear ended my vehicle at roughly 50+ mph causing him to hit another vehicle in turn causing a 6 vehicle accident. The air bags did not deploy causing his head to hit the steering wheel and the driver seat broke in half with him in it landing on the back seat.

Malfunctioning airbags. The airbag of our 2005 Saturn Ion 3 coupe did not deploy during a serious accident. The front of the vehicle was crushed and it slidon its side. By miracle, the driver was not killed, or seriously injured.

I hit the rear of a truck hard enough that my radiator was crushed against my engine block. However, the airbags in my car did not deploy at all. I know I had to have hit the truck in front of me somewhere between 20 and 50 mph. We are still waiting to hear back from our doctor to see if my wife and I are ok, and I have not had my car repaired yet for I am still waiting for the car insurance company. If this is normal I would like to know at what point were the airbags in a 2005 Saturn Ion type 1 suppose to deploy in a front end collision.
