NHTSA complaint: 2009 SATURN VUE — STRUCTURE:BODY
I TURNED THE CORNER TO ENTER MY STREET, THERE IS A SLIGHT "S" CURVE TO ENTER MY STREET. I WAS NO MORE THAN 50 YARDS FROM THE CORNER WHEN MY VEHICLE REVVED LOUDLY, RPM TO 3500 AND ACCELERATED , I MANAGED TO AVOID MORE DAMAGED THAN WAS DONE, BUT IN THE INTERIM I HIT A 3' TALL BRICK MAIL BOX AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. THE GENTLEMAN WHOSE MAIL BOX I HIT SUGGESTED I RESEARCH RECALLS, - AND I FOUND A TON OF "LIKE" INCIDENCES WITH THESE VEHICLES AND TRANSMISSIONS. IT IS AMAZING NO ONE HAS BEEN KILLED. GENERAL CONSENSUS IS GM IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE SITUATIONS. GM KNOWS THE TRANSMISSION IS DEFECTIVE, BUT REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LEFT STRANDED WITH A NON WORKING VEHICLE AND STILL OWING MONEY FOR THIS. THERE IS EVIDENCE OF FAILURE ON A CONTINUAL BASIS, BUT GM IS ABANDONING THE CAUSE. DISGUSTING SINCE WE THE TAX PAYERS BAILED THEM OUT WITH THEIR SUB STANDARD PRODUCT! *TR
