Do not buy this car
I bought this car used and liked the styling, etc. But, my transmission failed, brake fluid is leaking into the master cylinder, the air bag sensors are shot, and there's some noise coming from my front end. The car only has 80,000 miles on it! I've heard so many others are having the same problems with this car. I wish I had read reviews of it before I bought it!! As a comparison, my Dodge Caravan had almost 300,000 miles on it when it died and my husband's Ford F150 has 315,000 miles on it. This car is such a nightmare. I don't know if I should bother to fix it because it sounds like others have had it fixed only to have MORE issues come up. GM should be ashamed. I'll never buy a GM again.
DO NOT BUY A SATURN 2007 OUTLOOK
I have had problems with this car since I bought it used in 2009. This car is a disgrace and I fear driving every time I get in the car. My husband was just driving it recently on a major highway and the car just stalled out and he couldn't steer. Now how about if that was me and my 6 yr old son and we would have gotten into a major accident. I had to buy a new transmission, struts, now its in the shop again for another problem. Do research on any car before you buy. I will never buy another GM again. I always told people to buy AMERICAN but apparently they don't care about screwing us over!!

Lemon at 250k and counting
I bought my outlook used around 50k with a lemon on the title, 12k miles warranty. Had to take it back about 6 times within that period to have them fix a shifting issue that repeatedly was not fixed and replace a radio. They ended up putting a new engine in it but wouldn't give me more details. Basically if it was in cruise mode it wouldn't downshift correctly up/down hills and would stay up if you weren't paying attention, fixed if manually lowered speed. Also service stabilitrack warning that would turn off if car restarted (electrical issues are big with this car). Later in its life it would randomly not shift and keep ramping rpn's while first driving unless you shut off and restarted after maybe a minute. Usually I could catch it when leaving work and just pull over. Electrical issues like seat sensor went out on passenger side ($800 estimate), check engine light since around 120k that the dealership couldn't diagnose and claimed they'd have to replace multiple wiring harnesses. Alternator lasted to 240k so pretty good, expensive to replace though, $600 due to its location. Service parts are expensive for this car and often difficult to install, at least in comparison to my husbands Chevy truck (2004). Love driving the car though, interior and size is perfect for me and my new baby. Good space for groceries and big holiday trips. We took often for 7 hour each way trips between Iowa and Michigan.

Major regret of my life!
Where do I begin....2nd day, AC stops working and downhill from there...leaky sunroof, jammed seatbelt, interior door trim falls off, bad paint job (repainted twice!), inside dash compartment mechanism broke, exterior wiper trim falls off from car wash (replaced 3 times), front suspension sway bar end links worn out (at 20K miles), musty smell from AC, loud thump when in reverse (told this is normal) and I could go on and on. I have regretted this major purchase everyday. It is always in for service. I begged them to buy it back from me after the first month. I dread the day the warranty expires.
