#3 of 10 ion power steering by amabana Jan 20, 2009 (6:19 pm)
my wife's ion has been sending the power steering warning as the power quits. It can be reactivated by turning off and restarting the car. Any help out there?   Replies to this message: electriclime3 (Mar 19, 2009 8:39 am)

My 2003 Saturn ION starts when it wants to and leaves me stranded often, does any one have a fix for this problem? Replies to this message: bertbaggins (Mar 10, 2009 8:38 am) whatsupfromca (Mar 18, 2009 11:23 pm)

Replying to: tutzo (Feb 23, 2009 2:01 pm) go to the starting problem thread. you have to cut the white wire in in your steering column. It's very easy, I did it to mine, and one guy posted a video of how to do it on youtube. Our problom was that the car would not start when the temp dropped below 32. it only happened to me in the winter. I would try to start the car and it would try and then not go. The car then send "service vehicle" I would wait 10 minutes and try again, and sometimes it would start and sometimes not. Replies to this message: whatsupfromca (Mar 18, 2009 11:23 pm)

Replying to: bertbaggins (Mar 10, 2009 8:38 am) Does everyone have an aftermarket alarm? My car never wouldn't start, but now I have a wireless start and some times I have the same problem as you guys, but not since i have reset the alarm. I know it has something to do with the key because it has its own chip inside I was told, dont know if its true or not. only real problem I have is when I make left or right turns sometimes the car will skip or jump up in the back. only have 60K miles and its been like that the whole time. I am going to get tein springs and kyb shocks

ya i forgot to type that I was also told to let the car sit 10-15 min with key on first switch so it can reset. dont know if not having key in will work, been to busy with key in and time wasting to not have key in and more time wasted

Replying to: amabana (Jan 20, 2009 6:19 pm) I"ve had the same problem! Bought the car last Wednesday, a 2004, with <49K miles on it; Thursday it would not start (very cold outside....read info in other forum). Both TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY this week, my PWR STR message came on and the power steering failed. After restarting the car, it worked fine. Pain in the butt.......you'd think Saturn would have a solution......I'll visit them today. Oh, had the diagnostic computer hook-up done yesterday which showed "NO CODES" therefore everything must be "fine"??????

COULD BE THAT YOUR SUSPENSION NEEDS FIXED THAT'S ALL THE SMELL MIGHT BE IN THE HEATER CORE OR THE A/C HAS A LEAK OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT
