I was driving down the highway and all of a sudden my car slowed down really slow I pulled over and turned it off. When I tried to turn it back on it wouldn't crank.

The headlight wiring harness melts in these vehicles causing the light to fail, this is well documented on the internet on various forums. Early this morning my wife was pulled over by a police officer for having one working headlight, I attempted to replace the bulb and it still does not work, information on the internet lead me to discover melted wires on the light fixture, this is a huge safety problem with this vehicle. There is also a well documented problem with the front end suspension, it fails prematurely and my Outlook is also having this problem. It also has power steering failure, the air conditioning system is failing, along with all the other safety systems that need recalled on this piece of GM junk pile. I have a wife, and beautiful two year old twin girls, who use this vehicle frequently, shame on GM for putting this thing on the road, the whole thing should be recalled and shredded for scrap, owners should be fully reimbursed the current value of vehicle.

The contact owns a 2009 Saturn Outlook. The contact stated that while driving approximately 70 mph, the rear end of the vehicle began seaying back and forth uncontrollably. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where they advised him that the rear driver side upper control arm and rear passenger side lower control arm failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired for the upper and lower control arms. Approximately 1,000 miles after the repairs, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where they informed the contact that the rear control arm failed and also needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000. The current mileage was approximately 72,000.
