This is a great family suv. Everything was definitely easy to repair. The common problem with the Saturn vue is changing the oxygen sensor. Other than that the car runs like a champ. I left my car sitting with out driving it for a full year and I took care of the little problem and now it’s running like a champ again with only 13,000+ miles

Red Line Great Car So Far

Red Line V6, 08/06/2008

Bought it with 26000 miles on it as a 2 year lease return. I was reluctant to get a V6, but when I found out that Honda made the engine that was put into the Red Line, I made the leap and bought it. Mileage is not bad, but could be better- but not as bad as I thought it might have been. I average about 23-26. Great looking leather, and lots of power and torque. Glad I got it, now I can tow!

Not a Bad SUV

Like the car, looked at CR-V, RAV4 and settled on this for powerplant and body panels. Bridgestone tires are horrible in snow and even rain. Loud wind noise on opposite windows in any type of crosswind. Rear seats recline "almost" as much as coach airline seats. AWD is very slow to engage when front wheels spin. <20mpg in city driving. No problems in 15K miles other than to replace tires with all season.

Needs more power

I love the VUE overall but it needs more power. It's a four cylinder. I should have bought a six cylinder. It's even worse when running the air conditioning. Plus the gas mileage is not that good when running the air conditioning.

I have owned the Saturn for almost two years now and have been happy with it. Though the front seats are lacking in comfort during long trips, they are suitable for around town. The room is great for getting stuff around town, especially with the front seat laying flat. The sport package is great with the alloys, power package, and sunroof. The 5 speed is the only way to go with the 4 cyl. otherwise the power is too lacking. All in all a fun car to drive.
