Best in Class In My Opinion

I took months to test drive all the vehicles in the market for this class. I would like everyone to know that for the buck, the RELAY is the best vehicle I have ever found! Between the Safety and Reliability that Saturn is already known for, I don't think I'll ever buy anthing but a Saturn!

We shopped and shopped and thought Toyota and Honda would be our choice. Then we went to Saturn of Danbury in CT. The staff was amazing but even more impressive was the Relay minivan. The features and safety, combined with how we were treated made the selection a no brainer. Driving and purchasing has made me a believer again in American cars. GO SATURN!

Great Choice

This is our 4th Saturn & 1st Minivan (although this is labeled a 'crossover'). Again, Saturn has proven - they know what they are doing. We were skeptical in purchasing a minivan, but the 'SUV' look & Minivan comfort did it for us. Affordable, dependable and we get tons of compliments. Get the Automatic door & DVD Player - it is worth it for the little ones. Great use of space front to back; comfortable seats all around. For those 'anti-minivan folks' - this is a good choice. Adults & kids alike have a great ride whether 15 mins or 5 hours. We are really pleased with our RELAY.

On paper, and in some of these reviews, the Relay doesn't look competitive. But once you drive it, you'll see that the power is great, even at the low end. The standard features like the DVD player and OnStar are excellent. Stack that on top of the great treatment that you get from the Saturn retailer. This is a great van! My family really enjoys it.

Purchased 2005 Relay II new in November 2004. Car has been up and down the east coast. First long distance trip went from DE to CT and back on 3/4 of tank...impressive. As the years and miles went by notice problems. Power sliding door would automatically open when you tried to close it. Suspension problem with left bushing covered under warranty. Lastly, never resolved was the dimming dashboard that was told to be a problem with alternator. This was replaced under warranty but got progressively worse again.
