In love with my Saturn
Honestly, it's a great car, yes there are some computer issues, but they can be easily fixed and they're not expensive. It rides smoothly, is safe, easy driving, but wish it was a faster car. Overall, highly recommended.

My First New Car
I have had my Saturn for almost a year now and I love it!! I get very good gas mileage in the city and on the highway. I have gotten many compliments from coworkers and from people on the street about the new look of Saturn. The experience I have had as an owner has been nothing less than superb! I have scheduled appointments for regular maintenance with various dealerships and everyone has been friendly. The only issue I have had thus far is a remote that worked at its own convenience. At the dealership, the service representative was friendly and swapped my remote while my oil was being changed. I would truly say that this car is a very good buy.
2008 Teens first car
I paid good money for the 2008 Saturn Aura it was for my grand daughter, her first car. I asked the dealer to fix the noisy exhaust, I managed to get it home before it got noisy again, so much for that fix, Chaching, hear the register. Next I found out that a key was broken in the only lock in the car that is in the driver side door. I had to find an auto locksmith on a Saturday to remove it and make a second key, Chaching. I realize it was used just hope I didn't buy a money pit. Would not buy from that dealer again, went to their website and guess what? You can't leave a review.

My hot wheel has HOT WHEELS
I actually love my Saturn. I've had it 3 years now. I noticed at first it set a little low but it didn't scrub or anything. ESC (electronic stability control) message kept popping up an I had a small leak in a transmission pipe wich wasn't as irritating as finding out it didn't have a actual dipstick to check the level of fluid. I got the leak fixed but that still wasn't my most major issue. So my passenger side front tire got to where it would start shaking this past summer, not every drive but from time to time. It eventually got bad enough I thought my tire was bad so I took it off an put my spare on. When I take it to my local tire shop I learned my caliper needed changing it's was heating up badly, got it changed an the issue stopped for about a month. Same issue same tire se caliper started heating up again,this time I bled both breaks on each side after changing a collapsed break line on the passenger side. Two days later an I can feel a change in the way it takes off an changes gears almost like it's being held back. From constantly checking my caliper already I go feel for heat out of curiosity. Now my actual roaders are heating up. Roaders are still good an nothing has scratched them thankfully but I still have a issue. What could the actual problem be. I would love an exact answer an not a guess that way I could fix the issue off gate. Is something sticking or is it an electric problem causing it to malfunction an stick. Over all very roomie with a big but sleek body style that I love an I especially love the leg room it give me when driving it. Most cars normally cause me to feel cramped under the wheel but not my Saturn. I just want my ol Betsey fixed so I can enjoy another 3+ years.

A car better than the Camary or Accord
I purchased this vehicle this month. Far superior to any foreign label, the ride, handling and performance is superior to anything in its class. An excellent road car that exceeds its EPA fuel economy should alarm all competitors, the smooth ride reminds me of the Cadillac but has the performace of a Corvette with European stying. Forget what you have researched and go Saturn Aura. You really won't be disappointed. By the way this is 5th Saturn I've owned and the best.
