Used 2003 Saturn VUE Consumer Reviews
Do Not Buy
I bought my car a year and half ago and thought it was good. Boy was I wrong. Everything was good until 80,000 miles then my engine literally blew up. Cost me $1000 to buy a used engine. Now 2 weeks later, my car is back in the garage with a transmission that blew up. It costs $4500 just for the transmission! Saturn has a lawsuit due to faulty transmissions so now I have to see if I can get them to pay for some of it. If they won't, I don't know what I'm going to do. I can't afford to pay all that money in one month. I am looking to trade mine in. I will NEVER buy a Saturn again!
Saturn VUE 2003 AWD 6cyl
The only problem I have with the VUE is the shifting patterns; the RPM's seem to get too high before it shifts from second to third gear. The AWD VUE is excellent in winter driving conditions. The VUE also handled some very rocky roads without problems while driving through the backwoods of the Uinta Mountains.

Awesome SUV
I love my Vue!! I have NEVER been in a mini-SUV that was so spacious. Finally, my knees don't touch the steering column and my head doesn't scrape the roof. Also, I prefer manual transmittion, and all the other SUVs either don't offer it or it's a special order. Great feel and a comfortable ride. You won't regret the vehicle. (Powerpack and ABS worth extra cost).
Our Life with the Vue
We really liked our Vue. We drove it across country and it was very comfortable. However, gas milage was TERRIBLE....we traded it in for an L- Series.
unusal
Ive had this Vue since 2005 My mother in law owned before me and she too had to take it in alot. But since Ive had it I have not had to take it in, but Ive had a few problems of my own. the wheel bearing went out 3 times (the rear) and I replaced it my self but recieved the wrong part but it still works. the transmission well it is tempermental it likes to stutter then it goes of course saturn mech says they all do that so Ive been dealing with that since 2007. Its not a bad car and my wife has put that corn fuel in it, seems to run alright with it even though saturn says dont cause it wont run with it
