I'm sad Saturn is phased out.

I bought my Vue used with 81,000 miles. Had minor work done on driver side door as it needed to be adjusted to keep the entry lights off. Replaced tie-ends. Very minor stuff. Bumps are a bit noisy but are just an undesired design feature as the mounts are easily loosened. It is not a safety issue at all. I have no problem with wind noise. I have read other reviews stating that the Vue does not handle well in the snow. I disagree with this and chalk it up as driver error. I have had no problems in our North Dakota winters at all. I've made it out of some pretty deep drifts and severe ice conditions.

This car saved my family's lives....we put 100,000 on the car in less than a year, traveling almost 200-300 miles a day....we never had a repair except brake pads and tires....we were hit head on by a big ford 150 pickup at 45 miles an hour, , and the airbags deployed perfectly...no injuries, and the car still drove! It was considered a total, but the crash showed us the true safety of this vehicle.

2006 VUE

This was my first SUV experience. I also own a Saturn L200 and was so impressed with that vehicle I wanted to try the SUV. The vehicle is an excellent SUV. Drives great and provides enough space to transport fairly large objects. I drove from Oct '06 till now and put 31,000 miles on it with virtually no issues. I just traded it in for a 2007 VUE.

The Vue was my first car, a red little lady that I named Lola. We got her in 2011 and she gave me 5 excellent years of driving. In 2016, we had a freak ice storm, because Oklahoma weather is a wicked mistress, and I was caught on a highway overpass. Lost control at 50 mph, hit two concrete barriers, and ended up backwards on the shoulder. The combination of airbag, seatbelt, and the way the car was made saved my life. I had a horrible seatbelt burn and a baseball sized bruise on my chest, but I lived!

Bought it to do Uber/Lyft. Paid $2800 in May of 2018. September 5th ac was a $510 repair. Other than oil changes this was my first expense. Everyone has nice things to say about it. Mine was a one owner car so it was taken care off.
