Was just wonder if the problem has came back. I have a ion and it's doing the same thing!!!
Definitely sounds like an ignition switch my 04 Redline would do the exact same thing. $30 its the electrical part attached to the back of the cylinder housing.I have the exact same problem in my ion. All the lights work, radio works, etc but when I trun my key to start it I get nothing like a dead battery but I know for a fact that the battery is not the problem. This is also not the first time this has done this. If I let it sit for like a half hour or so some times it will start. I want to take it out back and shoot it but seeing how it's my only car I kinda need it so if anyone could help that would be great. Also when this happens I get that pwr str MSG and my gas gauge does not move.
That doesn't just happen out of nowhere. It's usually caused by a bad jump start or the bcm eating it. His description is exactly what happens when the ignition switch goes bad. It will not start occasionally, and if you wait long enough and try again the car will start. Pass lock "situations" don't come and go like this.Dirty, any icons on the dash? Sounds like passlock situation.
I have a 2007 Saturn with a 2.2L Ecotec engine. I did try and jump my car using the front end posts after reinstalling my main engine ground strap and getting a no crank no start issue, which was not there before I drained my heating & cooling system and replaced the engine temperature sensor. I called myself being thorough by removing the recovery tank to clean before refilling with coolant, which led to me disconnect the engine ground and moving my PCM & ECM units out the way. As I attempted to connect the last charging cable to the other vehicle it sparked. So I didn't complete the jump. But 3/4 cables were connected to battery posts.Also check the 60amp power steering fuse in the underhood fuse box.
By chance did you try to jump your car using the front underhood post?
Actually yes, someone tried to use my moms car to jump their car and now her car has a security light and nothing else. No dash lights, no nothing. Her car was started and she hit the gas and it just shit off. All it said was pwr str and the car security light is onAlso check the 60amp power steering fuse in the underhood fuse box.

Hello. I have a 2006 Saturn Ion with 98,450 miles on it and the other day for apparently no reason I heard three pings, my instrument panel displayed a 'PWR STR' message, and I lost the use of my power streering. I went home, parked the car, and when I started it up again my power steering was back to normal.I have a 2007 Saturn with a 2.2L Ecotec engine.

Now, I have a no crank issue, along with a new power steering error message. There appears to be power to the vehicle. The instrument panel lights up with all indicators at the on and run positions, but absolutely no crank happens, and there are no sounds coming from under the hood when I attempt to start the car. I tried listening for clicks, but nothing. I'm worried I may have blown my starter. or damaged my computer somehow.
Any thoughts?

Has the recall been done?Hello. I have a 2006 Saturn Ion with 98,450 miles on it and the other day for apparently no reason I heard three pings, my instrument panel displayed a 'PWR STR' message, and I lost the use of my power streering. I went home, parked the car, and when I started it up again my power steering was back to normal.
This is late, But yesterday, I went to go through an intersection and my Ion (2004 LF1) shutsoff, says PWR STR, so I check the fuse box. Replaced the 10 amp for the ECM (blowed) and replaced it with the 10 amp from the horn. Saved me from a bad day.Car won't start, always shows PWR STR on the error window, and the fuel gauge doesn't go up from empty.
Fuses are fine, and can't check for any codes since I don't have a scanner. I'm completely baffled.
