SATURN SW Recalls

2 recalls across 2 model years

Summary

The Saturn SW has 2 recalls across the 1996-1997 model years, with the most serious being a horn assembly defect on 1997 models where heat can build up in the assembly and start an underhood fire without any warning, even without pressing the horn. On 1996 models, some roof panel welds between the outer roof and internal reinforcement panels may fall short of specification, and in a crash those flanges can partially separate, increasing the risk of injury to occupants.

19971 recall
