Used 2002 Saturn VUE Fwd 4dr SUV (2.2L 4cyl 5M) Consumer Reviews
Saturn VUE stability in question
I've owned my Saturn VUE for 5 almost 6 years. I have had issues with stability on the highway on windy days and with potholes or uneven freeways. It almost rolled over once and that was very scary. I'm not a speedy driver either. I took it in and they adjusted the alignment and it helped somewhat but I've been scared to drive it ever since. I've also had issues with air conditioning fluid leaking onto my feet from the console. Have reported this several, several times and nothing was done about it. The tires are not good in the snow.
It's been since 96 since i bout my 02 Vu
I have never had a major problems with my Vue since i bout it in 006. I just now noticed i need to replace my sway bar witch cost 300 at dealership to replace. But that is it. I am sure like all cars the older it gets the more worn it becomes but that is pretty good. No emergencys. I like my truck alot but i would love to get my hands on that Outlook.. I LOVE the one.

Good solid SUV
I got the sport edition and really enjoy it for the most part. It's a four cylinder stick, but surprisingly peppy. Excellent fuel mileage considering it's an SUV. What's really neat is some of the features. I really like the ride and the new electronic steering (derives power electronically versus ol' power steering off the engine). Resistance on the steering lowers with speed and once you get used to it, it's pretty cool. Overall, I like it and would buy it again. The best thing about it though? The price! Less than $16 grand for power everything (including moonroof), ABS and AWD. Fantastic!
a vue
I have owned the vue over one year, it is reliable and gets good gas mileage, the interior design(cup holders poor) I like the design and it is stable in curves. The rear seat is very roomy, but the cup holder gets in the way. The plastic inside looks cheap, and the back of my front seat is scratched from moving lumber etc. Seats lifted at beginning(foam showed),only bandaided problem at dealership.
A Lousy Car and Company
I have had nothing but trouble with this car from the get-go. First and foremost, when I bought it, I was supposedly buying one exactly like the car they used to "puppy-dog me" into buying one. Never did they mention mine was a 5 speed. All I got was the speech about the "free" upgrades. Since then I have had the gromet break in the transmission and oil "disappear". I have been through 3--yes 3--ignition coils and believe it or not, although I was guaranteed a "free" inspection every year, I have yet to get by without paying at least $20 for the installation of a broken light bulb. This year I took it somewhere else for an inspection, paid for the inspection and passed! DUH!
