| Sometimes would have a hard time starting the car or the car would not start at all. after about a week,the check engine light and passenger seat airbag light would come on. when these lights were on, the speedometer and tachometer did not work. shortly after that the engine lock light came on and then nothing worked. the defrost front and rear, a/c, heating control, interior lights, airbag failure light lit up, seat belt light lit up and the self locking for the doors did not engage when putting the car into gear. sometimes i would turn the car off and about a half an hour later, the exterior lights would come on all by themselves, sometimes draining the battery if i did not notice this. i felt totally unsafe driving the car when this would happen - i had no safety features to rely on and i did not even know if i would have a car that would run. i took the car to a saturn dealer and had the bcm (body control module) replaced. i also found out that saturn is having a problem with this and i have asked others that own similar saturns also experienced this problem. this was quite costly to replace approximately $600.00 (the cheapest around). others paid more for this repair than i did. *tr | |||
