Reliable and Economical
I have never had any major problems with this vehicle.
A cheap decent car
My parents leased this car when it first hit the dealers. I was too young to drive it then, but when I started to drive it had about 60k miles on it. Now it has over 100 km. This car is pretty good overall. I'd say it is very reliable, cause it's been offroading, it hit a curb and went airborne, and it flipped and landed on it's roof. (dont ask how all that happend:) and it's still in great condition. So I think this car is reliable and tough. Acceleration isn't that bad but it is a 4 cyl. At high speeds this car is a little rough riding. Over the years the only bad thing about the car is the engine failed at only 90 km. So we bought a used engine w/60 km on it. If you get it cheap, then it's good
down hill
This is the second Saturn I have owned (I had a '96 SL2 but the tranny went out for the second time). I have had this about a year now but I have not been able to drive it for the last two months. I bought this thinking that it would last me the 250K I had on my '96. Not so. It only has 128K and i have a power problem that no one can find. A dealer finally told me today that it could be the clutch slipping. I doubt it. I give up. I will be looking for a new car now. So long Saturn.
Thought I was getting a good car....
I have had a lot of problems with my 2000 SL2. I have had a lot of equipment replaced or in need of replacing. The "dent resistant" side panels sounded great... what they don't tell you is that instead of getting a dent... you get holes.

THIS CAR IS VERY DEPENDABLE, THE LARGEST PROBLEM I HAVE HAD YET,WAS A FLAT TIRE.
