I just purchased my VUE and so far so good. I am nervous though since this is my second Saturn in a row that has squeeky seats and I hope that isn't a sign of things to come. Moderately quiet car, some wind noise but not too bad.

Irritating Problems

I bought my 2006 Vue Redline new and thought is was a solid vehicle. Now with nearly 30k miles, I've had a new transmission, fuel pump, various gaskets, left front strut mount replaced. Now the right front strut mount is making a rattle. It got terrible gas mileage since day one. (16 city, 18-20 hwy). On the bright side, when they replaced all the above parts, my gas mileage has improved. I'm now getting 20.6 city and 26+ on the highway. That's fine, however, I seem to spend a lot of commuting time back and forth to the dealership. Thanks goodness it's still under the B to B 3/36 warranty.

I ordered a black Saturn VUE Redline in November of 2005. Once it came off the line and delivered to the dealership, I took delivery (12/22/05). This is my second Saturn and I am beyond pleased with the craftsmanship, durability and fuel efficiency that it offers. Handles well in the snow. As always, great jopb Saturn!

We are first time Saturn owners. The car is still brand new and has been flawless so far. We really like the dent-resistant panels and this is what convinced us to buy our first Saturn. The Honda engine is also a big plus. It is very nimble and quick and the mileage is good. We like it a lot.

Saturn VUE Redline

Good $20k crossover. Base models feel floaty on the freeway, and handling does not inspire confidence. Upgrading to the Redline solves those problems, along with giving a better look and interior. The Honda v6 in these is great, and move this vehicle along nicely. Don't spend the money for the AWD version unless you have to.
