Used 2002 Saturn L-Series Consumer Reviews
Good Value
I had purchased only BMW products for the last 18 years up to this Saturn. I would take two Saturns over one BMW (rough price equal)any day. The car is well designed and exteremely functional.
Great car
I purchased the car new and have been very happy with it. I drive for a living and find the car a real pleasure. Climate control is kind of stupid with the automatic temp. control. Had a little problem with dripping coolant, but was taken care of by dealer. Handles nice and is very comfortable and I am 6' and 230 lbs. Holds 4 adult and the truck is roomy. Seems to have a little to much road noise, but much better then my Chrysler. Engine is spunky and rides nice on the high way. Hard to see out of back window with the spoiler. Would buy again and again. Compares very well to my Camry.

Very solid
With the V6 it is definitely fun to drive, which has an impact on the fuel mileage . . . This is my 2nd Saturn and I really like the way the driver's controls are arranged. Have put over 100k miles on it in 4 years and now has over 175k miles on it. Starting to see some maintenance issues with parts failing, but the major systems such as tranny, engine, etc are still doing fine. Annoying problem with the AC leaking into the driver's compartment, and the soft rotors have warped somewhat and essentially need replaced each time the brakes are replaced.
L300 2002
I bought top of line L300 expecting to have it for a long time. Problems started at about 33000 just shy of warranty and keep mounting up, past warranty. Bad tires, tie rods, noises,now steering rack. If you're interested in a Saturn make sure you're up to date on recalls and TSB! Horrible, horrible car.
