You can’t be careful enough not to scrap it at some point.
The low chin and just about everything beneath the front nose can turn your parking lot curbs into a constant enemy. Another big one besides the airbag is the Saturn Sky's low front chin. You should also ensure the high-pressure fuel pump and camshaft solenoids aren't falling, although those are easy fixes. The airbag problem typically manifests as a broken passenger presence sensor in the passenger seat for the airbag system whereby the passenger airbag light displays "off" along with a "Service Airbag" message on the dash despite an adult passenger in the seat. The site registered 340 airbag issues, while the second most common problem has to do with the vehicle's service brakes and hydraulic, with a disproportionate 77 problems registered in this category. Data collected by CarProblemZoo found that out of the 23 most common problems associated with the Saturn Sky, the number one is in the vehicle's airbags category. The longitudinally-mounted 2.0-liter Ecotec LNF inline-4 sounds miserly compared to GM's other V6 and V8 units, but it was perfect for the Kappa platform.īut you already know all these about the Sky and just want to get prepared for possible unknowns, right? Your first port of call when checking out your potential Saturn Sky is… drum roll - the airbag. The turbocharged Red Line trim took the naturally breathing inline-4 a notch further and featured many upgrades mimicking the higher trim Solstice GXP.
So, you can imagine how the automotive world got stunned when the company introduced the Kappa-based Sky, looking very much like a rebadged Solstice. In fact, GM tried to sell the Saturn brand around the time the depression hit in 2008. These were popular models but never lived up to their fighter brand expectations, even after the parent company expanded Saturn’s portfolio to include the Vue compact SUV and the Aura mid-size sedan with the dawn of the new millennium. A few years down the road, the $3 billion Saturn project disgorged cheap models like the S-Series and the drab L-Series. We slide down memory lane to remember how GM responded to the Japanese imports flooding the US compact car market by launching the Saturn brand as a new GM subsidiary to take on the parasites.
