Problem overview

Some Saturn Vue owners report experiencing issues such as an illuminated airbag light, a non-functioning horn, and malfunctioning cruise control. These problems may arise due to a failed self-diagnostic cycle in the airbag control module, which can store codes indicating the cause of the airbag light being on. Additionally, a faulty clockspring could be responsible for the horn not working, which may also affect steering wheel controls and trigger the airbag warning light. For those experiencing cruise control malfunctions, potential causes include a failed control module, sensor or switch issues, or problems with throttle actuation. It is advisable for owners to have the airbag control module checked for stored codes, diagnose and replace any faulty clockspring, and inspect cruise control components to ensure safety and functionality. Consulting a qualified mechanic for proper diagnosis and resolution of these issues is highly recommended.
