2006 ION fails to start after sitting in the sun.
I have a 2006 Saturn Ion (6000 miles/< 6 months old) and have had
starting problems 5 or 6 times. It always seems to be when it has been sitting in the sun. Sometimes I turn the key and NOTHING happens. Sometimes it turns over but does not start. Multiple tries leads to the same thing or both scenarios happening. Sometimes it will eventually start (even in the sun) but it has always started once the car has cooled down/in the shade. It happened yesterday and I dropped it off at a dealer this AM. Have not heard a word yet but, as I told them on the note I left, I fully expect that it will start unless it has been sitting in the sun. Any ideas? Similar experiences with the ION? Other Saturn vehicles? Disappointed ... my VUE never had ANY problems. |

Problem likely inside car/dash area. ----------------- TheSnoMan.com |
