Used 2002 Saturn L-Series Sedan Consumer Reviews
It's OK but costly
I got my Saturn for my 20th birthday. My mom took it to the dealership and paid to have them check it out. Everything was fine. Two months later on my way to work I heard a pop. The alternator belt popped of. These things happen. But now it is a year later and I have had to replace the pannel for the a/c to work and then a pump, totaling 1,300 then I went and had the 60,000 mile service done and they said everything is OK. Now 3 weeks later I am having problems with the fuel tank. I also had a Saturn before this one and every payday it would break down. I hate Saturns.
Have you hugged your Saturn today?
The Saturn L300 is a great car! I had a Saturn SL2 before this and the L300 is lightyears ahead of the SL2. I haven't had any problems with my L300 except about two years after I bought it, the engine wouldn't start. After running their tests they traced the problem down to a faulty PCM computer. They replaced the computer and now it's back in perfect health. As usual, the Saturn service team is extremely helpful and polite. I like the 4 disk breaks instead of disk & drum breaks. If you need to stop in a hurry the SL2 won't do it, but the L300 stops in an instant.

My first car
I Love this car! I first got it in Nov, 2008, senior year of high school. I originally drove like a granny driver, slow to keep my mileage up even though I lived less than a mile from school and didn't really leave town until I started college. The original engine had succumb to the timing chain issue so we had a new one put in. The new engine, at first, had horrible compression and I'm surprised the car made the 60+ mile trip home, then another 20 miles to a friend's to get the compression test. This car appeared to not want to give up on me since I didn't give up on it. A can of restore with a full synthetic oil change and spark plugs and she's running better than many cars on the road.
My First Saturn Wagon
As the owner of a Lincoln Town Car and having an invalid wife I need something that could easily handle a wheelchair and that would enable me to sit my wife in the front passenger seat without problems. It outdoes the Town Car in every respect. Just as responsive. Just as comfortable, easier storage access. Rides as well and a lot more economical on gas mileage. I made an excellent choice of vehicle.
Best buy for the money
The L300 is the best car for the money we purchased a fully load model 16" chrome rims, 6-disc CD, DVD, leather. and we are very happy with the V6 performance and handling. The V6 has good power and the sound system is great
