I HAVE UNFORTUNATELY OWNED MY SATURN 2004 VUE FOR 2 YEARS. THE FIRST 3 MONTHS OF HAVING IT, AFTER HAVING TO REPLACE MY 2003 VUE FOR ALL THE PROBLEMS IT HAD WAS IN THE SHOP THE FIRST 4 MONTHS OF PURCHASE. THE POWER ENGINE FAILURE LIGHT WOULD GO ON AND I WOULD LOSE ALL POWER TO THE CAR. THEY HAD NO IDEA HOW TO FIX IT. THEN THE BACK WINDSHIELD SHATTERED. THE GAS MILEAGE IS HORRIBLE AND THE WHOLE GAS TANK AND ODOMETER HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED. I WOULD FEEL THE CAR UP WITH GAS AND THE ODOMETER WOULD GO TO FULL AND MOVE BACK UP TO HALF FULL. THE CAR IS IN THE SHOP AGAIN FOR THROTTLE AND ENGINE PROBLEMS AGAIN. HAVE HAD THE REAL DISPLEASURE OF WORKING WITH A VERY RUDE LADY AT SATURN BY THE NAME OF MARCIA WHO CLEARLY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ONES SAFETY IN THEIR VEHICLE. ACCORDING TO SATURN THE NEWER VEHICLES HAVE HAD THESE PROBLEMS FIXED. HOWEVER, I MUST SAY HAVING BEEN A SATURN OWNER FOR 12 YEARS NOW MY FAITH IN THEIR PRODUCT IS GONE. *JB
2008
AIR BAGS
WE PURCHASED A 2008 SATURN VUE ON JUNE 28, 2008. THE PAST 3 WEEKS, THE KEY WOULD PERIODICALLY NOT RELEASE FROM THE IGNITION - SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACED THE SHIFTER SAYING IT WAS NOT COMPLETELY GOING INTO PARK. ALSO, THE AIRBAG LIGHT (FOR DRIVER) STARTING BLINKING AT THE TIME THE ABOVE OCCURRED (THIS WAS ALSO BROUGHT TO THEIR ATTENTION). WHEN I STARTED THE CAR, IT STARTED TO BLINK (ONLY LIGHT BLINKING) AND CONTINUED BLINKING WHEN ALL OTHER LIGHTS FADED. NO ERROR MESSAGE WAS RECEIVED BY THE CHIP. MILE ONE SATURN CLAIMS THAT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE AIR BAG ISSUE, THEREFORE THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT PERCEIVED THERE WAS NO ISSUE AND RELEASED THE CAR TO ME. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WENT BACK IN AND TOLD THEM I WAS NOT TAKING THE CAR UNTIL THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM. *TR
