When I first purchased my Saturn the seat cushions came off on both front seats and the windows fell off the tracks. It would randomly go into break down mode while I was on the freeway. Imagine dropping to 20mph in the fast lane. The engine blew up at 124,000 cause yet unknown - may have been via the transmission.

I bought this car strictly on price. Got a 24 mo lease w/17K miles per year for $222. I was expecting to be underwhelmed, but I found this vehicle to be a pleasant surprise. I got the 5- speed because I prefer a stick, and got an add'l $250 rebate. This car would not be fun with an automatic. The engine pulls strong in the powerband. The interior is quieter than I expected. It only took a few days to get used to the center-mounted gauges. I don't know that I'd put them there, but they work just fine. The only time it seems weird is at night, when there is no light from the gauges directly in front of you.

Well, I didn't like the positioning of the gauges on the dash at first, but, now I love it. I really like this car and I think it is a great car. I have only had it about a week but I'm sure I'll love it for a goow long while to come. I recommend test driving one for yourself!

Everything was fine the first year or so, but one of the first problems I had I was driving my car and the steering wheel wouldn't turn and I was going on a curve. I also heard rattling inside the steering column and was told it was a loose screw, but I still hear the rattling in there. My engine light came on twice in 6 months. And 5 times my car wouldn't start. Was told it was the battery which wasn't the case. Comes to find out that it was the engine switch. And I also had a transmission leak. And customer service were the ones telling me lies, like how the car "should be" fixed at a certain time. I worked hard for this car and its krap.

This is my first new car in 15 years and my first new Saturn. I am a gear head. I bought a silver ION 2 sedan with automatic transmission. I had been looking at this car for 3 years. I needed a car that would fit my wheel chair in the back seat without taking it apart. The trunk is large. the fold down seats are nice. Having OnStar as standard was the deciding factor. Loud good sounding sound systems sells cars and the base one in this car sounds as good as the infinity system in my 2000 Dodge.
