As of mid August the ignition was recalled by GM. Go to https://recalls.gm.com/#/ enter your vin and see if it is part of the recall. You may get it replaced for free at the dealership.

The shift lock release on my transmission shaft is broken on my 2002 Saturn Vue. I cannot get the car in gear. Help?

to override the shift gear , remove the little plastic cap on the console near the shifter. Put your foot on the brake. Use a small screwdriver and depress the tang with the screwdriver while shifting out of park.. You should be good to go. You will have to do this each time you start out till you get it fixed

Why my key won't go into ingnition on my 2004 saturn vue

Hi there sorry for my english hope you will understand me.

About your key problem .. have you notice that you can remove the key while the engine is running ? I guess that you probably removed it too early while stopping the engine , get the tip of the key in it and move it both direction with one hand while shaking the steering wheel in both directions with the other hand. It sounds weird but it will probably unlock the key barrel....be patient and try couple of times

If it don't work out it is stock and will need replacement , it is a common problem with saturn...

good luck !

Key wont come out of ignition

I fix this all the time. Remove the dash cover around the ignition. On the ingnition cyl. there is a small linkage control that you can remove, disconnect the wires and unscrew that piece, turn your key to off position and remove. Those wear out, but it's linked to the park selection on your shift electroniclyy (you got this for free, I charge 100 to do that normally)

I have 2003 sature vue with 91,543 miles

more then likely, you have 1 or 2 bad cv axles. I have seen them completely seperate-making it look like you dropped a transmission...otherwise,..ck' for bad wheel bearings..it will give you a vibration on floor board all the time strt. down the road...temp guage is a diff. issue- thermostat in need,.but only buy stats at dealer or NAPA...kev-mn.

Car

1. Try putting the gear shift in neutral and then attempt to start. If your VUE starts, replace the neutral safety switch.

2. Turn on the headlights and attempt to start while someone is watching for the lights to dim. If the lights dim while trying to start, remove starter and have it tested.

3. Take proof of ownership to the dealer and have them cut a new key. There is a chip inside the key, that when it's inoperative, will let you turn the key to the start position, but vehicle will not start.
