Used 2003 Saturn L-Series Consumer Reviews
SUPER CAR
I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BUY A USED PICKUP, SAW THE L200 AND COULDN'T BELIEVE IT WAS A SATURN. MED RED WITH SPORT PACKAGE READY TO GO ON SHOWROOM FLOOR. DESIGN, FEATUES AND 2.2L PERFORMANCE. DON'T LAUGH, I WAS SURPRIZED HOW PEPPY THIS ENGINE WAS.WE HAVE MADE TWO TRIPS FROM VA TO CONN IN THIS CAR AND IT HAD PLENTY OF POWER, EXCELLENT COMFORT AND HANDLING. GAS MILEAGE A LITTLE OVER 30.
ENGINE FAILURE
Engine failed (blown piston) 58 days after purchase from local dealer. No warranty, no nothing. They said about $2,500 to fix it. This doesn't seem possible with any car that's a 2003 with 68,000 miles...this just should not happen. Regular dealer maintenance has always been done, regular oil and filter changes, proper fuel -- very moderate driving... What's the manufacturer doing to help owners with these problems??

Malcontent with my Saturn
My vehicle was purchased with about 14,000 miles on it. I am so grateful that I purchased an extended warranty. I have had the following items to replace: horn, radio (CD would not eject), fuel pump, air conditioning condense, rotors, battery, one gasket, power steering rack, bushing, etc. I also have had minor transmission work. I am very satisified with the quality of work and the customer service of the Saturn dealership, but very discontent with the Saturn that I own. some of these items were basic maintenance, but it appears that I have bought a lemon. My next purchase will not be a GM Saturn. I am planning to buy a Toyota! I do not have any guilt about supporting a non-domestic car.
LW300
Extremely good value. Should last a very long time. Low maintenance cost.
