Heard what seemed to be road noise was told by dealer it was my tires after changing tires was told it was a front end bearing and was replaced by the dealer. Two months later same noise, returned to dealer and was told the other side bearing was defective it was replaced. I still have what sounds like drive train noise but get no acknowledgement from dealer. Air bag sensor on passenger side is defective, doors are aligned so poorly that daylight can be seen through the seal. This is a 2 year old vehicle and has been well maintained. I fear that I may be jeopardizing my family's safety by driving it. Is there a lemon law or any options for me.

Passenger air bag sensor faulty. Goes on when no pressure in the seat, seat belt light flashes, turns off randomly when passenger in vehicle. Took to local Saturn dealership, they could not "duplicate" problem so did nothing. Taking back again this week to try for resolution.

Passenger air bag fails to acknowledge lightweight passengers though they are over 100 pounds. Failure of about 85% of the time noted shortly after purchase. At first the Saturn dealer in gresham said they would do nothing about it, then making it clear this was not acceptable they replaced the sensor. Before long the same problem occasional occurred, now it has become over 50% of the time. Sometimes going off after driving a while, sometimes cycling off and on.
