At 192K miles, my SL2 shows no signs of quitting. Repairs since I've owned it have been: brakes relined several times, O2 sensor, stabilizer bar links, valve cover gasket, wheel bearings, and a few other small things. The car has used a quart every 1000 miles or so; seems to be just the way it is with this vehicle, and you get used to it, watching that dipstick carefully. No problems with the engine that might show cylinder wear though. I think Saturn may have been at the top of their game here and this has been by far the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned. It was made in Canada; could that have anything to do with it?
A great family car

After we found out the hard way Neons are easy to steal, we bought our first Saturn and it's been great. It's got high miles and still runs like it was new. I totally suggest if you are looking for a great family car, the SL2 4 door is the way to go.

I bought my Saturn SL-1 in May of 2000 and have some problems with it since. The major problems come from the wind noise, and the front right and left struts. When turning it rattles to no end and when going 60mph, I feel like the windows are open. Although the dealership and service are good. For some reason they cannot fix the problem. Apparently some of the VUE's are having the same problem. OEM problem?? Who knows. I will more than likely not buy another Saturn in my lifetime. Nothing great about the car.

The 2000 SL1 is my third Saturn and I've not had one problem so far (knock on wood). I'm planning to purchase the new ION at the end of the year and hope that it performs as reliably as the SL1's have.
Pretty good car

This is my first leased vehicle and am pretty happy with it. It is not a sports car even though I try to drive it like one. I would never buy a 4 cyl engine but the SL2 has more power than a reg 4 cyl due to the dual overhead cams. The car has been pretty reliable. It has been in the shop to replace ignition switch and an auto window controller switch. Does great in all weather conditions.
