Doesn't owe me a thing
This car is 9 years old and I have replaced the battery a few times, brakes and other regular maintenance up keep. Driving it is okay I'm noticing now that the right speaker is starting to go out but overall it's been good to me.
Dont buy a Saturn (unless its mine!)
Where do I start? Wind noise: 5 trips to the dealership, finally noise is gone but doors no longer line up with other body panels. Tire wear: Three sets of rear tires in 60,000 kms (of course the dealership said it was my driving) (ps. always rear tires and always inside of treads worn). Headliner rattle: finally fixed it myself after taking it to dealership twice. Cable under hood worn out from rubbing against hoodliner. Clutch fluid resiviour went (left me stranded). Drivers side headlight housing is discoloured. This was all in the first 18 months. Now the high beam, signal switch has smoke coming from it...the saga continues...

2001 Saturn 6cyl Wagon
This wagon is spacious and very comfortable with plenty of power for passing. My only complaint is that I had a brake pad problem at a high speed on a multi lane which could have been serious, not expected at low mileage and low wear. The parts were quite expensive also
Excellent Value
I bought this car used with 66,000 miles and have been very pleased; already at 110,000 miles. I have had problems with the axle seals leaking, they've been replaced twice, which is about $900 parts & labor. But better than a car payment. The daytime lights began blinking around the 90,000 mile mark. It's annoying, but not worth fixing for $800. The Saturn dealership has the part in stock to fix it; apparently it's a problem they see periodically. No other major concerns or repairs. Overall I'm happy with the performance, reliability and low maintenance of the vehicle. I'll drive it 'til it dies.
Saturn L200 2001
Trouble with exterior paint chipping. Gas tank cover came off in my hand while closing it after filling tank with gas. Quirly fuel economy. Varies in city; stable on interstate.
