Used 2002 Saturn VUE Fwd 4dr SUV (2.2L 4cyl 5M) Consumer Reviews
Satisfied so far!!
For a 4 cyl, it's a great car. I drive it far & wide. It's a pretty comfy long distance ride for 3-4 people. For driving around the city, 5 people sit very comfortably. It handles like a car & it's not humongous like most of the other SUVs. I love it!
cue to a vue
got 10000 miles on it with only a faulty fuel gauge. Half the cost of a Pacifica, and not as ugly as the Rav4 or Element. Holds a lot with seats folded, and quick for a 4 banger. A rear seat armrest would be nice, as would bigger front armrests. I got big arms. I'll have to install some Bimmer sport-Recaros.

O.K. thus far
have had minivans prior, so comfort is lacking for my 6'4 frame. Dealership is still in question. Hope all is well for the long term.
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!
Glad that's over...
I hate to bash this car, it got me around for 'bout 7 years and over 100k, but: This cars been my rival the entire time- Pros: This thing is pretty safe. I have been in 3 notable accidents (most recently fatally colliding with a deer) which have left me completely safe and confused that my vehicle had collided with something! Cons- This whole car (Including critical engine components) is made of cheap plastic, prone to dissentegrate and collapse in dire, drastic and expensive ways. It's all hunky dory 'til your engine almost seizes or your shifter breaks, leaving you in 1st gear and 30miles from the nearest soul. Thanks, Saturn.
