I recentally sold my 98 Camaro for somthing a bit larger, So I bought the Saturn Ls2, Everybody asks me "why did you buy a saturn?" I love the car I hear awfull things about Saturns but, it's really a good car. With the 3.0 it really gets up and goes! The Leather seats are VERY comfortable, But the Build quality lacks quite abit. I think it all depends on how you treat the car, it's taken me everywhere & I just passed 160,000!

This is my second Saturn. I have experienced many of the problems listed in these reviews. Brake lights and third rear window light both failed twice due to electrical problems. Overhead lights are unreliable. I've replaced the driver side visor twice because the entire unit broke at the hinge, coolant leaks, drive window off track with 1/8" gap when rolled up, OEM CD player doesn't work right in cold weather (music sounds warped). I sense a problem with the transmission just beginning, so I've decided to trade it in while I can still get something for the car. Goodbye Saturn, hello Subaru.

I originally loved this car, but imagine that. As soon as the warranty ran out (and it was paid off!), the car just started to fall apart. Within 37-40K miles I replaced the oxygen sensor, mass air flow sensor, and the windshield wiper motor. Now my brake lights don't work when the headlights are on (another $500 to replace both light fixtures - which the dealership said is common on this vehicle). Then, I had Saturn appraise the car for a trade-in and the steering (another common problem) is going out and will cost $1200 to fix. What a pile of junk! I couldn't give this car away! I am done with Saturn.

I bought this car with 129,000 miles on it in September 2008 and it lasted me barely 2 years and died at 165,000 miles. Since i had purchased the car i had put well over $3,000 dollars fixing things. The engine was horrible and always had something wrong. Recently my car stopped i brought it in to the shop and yet again another engine problem that would cost another 4,000 to fix. That's when i said bye to that stupid car.

This one is JUNK! My 1st Saturn nade at Spring Hill was a DREAM.This one built in Wilmington is a NIGHTMARE! It has 81,000+ miles, and sits at the Dealers with it's SECOND blown motor! The maint.history of this car is over 7 pages long. I Love Saturns: Made in Tenn. The cars turned out in Delware will drag Saturn into the grave. They are CRAP! Just check the J.D. Powers reports on THOSE Saturn's. 2nd point: 8 tail light assembly's in 4 years-last 2 out of my pocket at $182 ea. Q: Why didn't Saturn fix the engineering defect,and issue NEW assembly's? Instead we get to buy the same old OEM defective JUNK. Is that right? I would love to buy another built in TN.
