What's gonna fall off my Saturn next?

My fuel pump also went with out warning (at 55k). Cost to repair was 800, out of pocket. Needed new rear brakes in the first two years (less than 20k miles). Also have problems with the alloy wheels and tire rod. Have gone through 3 sets of tires in the 60k miles I've owned it. Heater core went at 57k. Transmission bottom fell out at 38k. Put in a brand new tranny at a cost of 6500 for parts and labor (insurance covered) and now the transmission has gone out again (60k miles). The bumper has literally fallen off on the highway (no collision neccesary). This is the worst car I've ever owned. Given the transmission and bumper I can honestly say I never know what will fall off this car next

For the price and a car to hold onto, this is an excellent buy and very American made.

For the first time in my life, I decided I was going to buy a practicle family car for about $20,000. The pickings were very slim, and when factoring in safety, reputation, and cost I was left with just the Honda CRV and the LW-200. Well, I chose the Saturn and couldn't be happier. I love the redesigned exterior! Oh, and if it comes down to a Saturn and a couple other cars for you...the Saturn undoubtedly will cost less to insure.

Two kids, both in child seats... what more can I say? This car combines both practicality for family hauling (and for bringing back furniture from Ikea) as well as comfort and fun factors like a great stereo, decent handling and acceleration (at least from a stop, with the 4 cyl) and a good hvac system.

Good looks, not great inside

I purchased the LW200 after driving a 4 cylinder VUE for a year. The LW is a much more comfortable ride, and it looks pretty sharp. I receive compliments on it all the time. All in all, it has been an uneventful year as far as reliability goes; no major problems to speak of.
