 My 2009 saturn vue hybrid was purchases in jan 2009. since that time my car battery has died 4 times. when i took it to the saturn dealer in savannah they said there was nothing wrong with the battery but my hybrid battery had a recall. after 10 days the vehilce was released back to me with a new hybrid battery however, the 12 v continues to die. the gm dealer in hinesville ga said that batteries will die in extreme conditions. i live in se georgia. i have no gps, radar detector, mps player , dvd player etc plugged into my vue to account for weather or battery drain. i purchased this vehilce to transport my granddaughter to doc appt, soccer, shopping and daycare knowing that by uses a hybrid i was being kinder to the environment. when my battery died last night i contacted on star to run a diagnostic test. on stat did not find any issues with the batter however, my airbags would not deploy in case of an accident. there is something very wrong with the battery or electrical system of the vue hybrid and my dealership is not being forthwright about the larger issue. eventually my warranty will run out and then i will be stuck with a very expensive lemon! please help!
