Shame on GM and Saturn

dissatisfied, 06/13/2010
2008 Saturn VUE XE 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful

I purchased this car because I was attracted to the exterior and interior design, I have since grown to loathe it because of the problems it has. The seat fabric which I initially thought was nice turned out to be cheap. I paid for extended service on the fabric, but since Saturn folded,my extended warranty no longer applies,there's no longer anyone to honor it. The fabric stains easily and the sides of the drivers and front passenger seats crease and are beginning to fray and show signs of tearing.I've contacted Saturn and they sent me to a GM dealer who said it was "normal" so they take no responsibility for an inferior product.This has never happened in any other car I've owned.

My car is a lease. I am about to finish it and I would like to buy it if I find a good price. Very comfortable, economic. I had had No problems with it. Only oil change or tire rotations. Some days I feel the AC is nor working properly usually at noon, but it could be the high temperatures here in Miami This is my third Saturn, The first one was a Demo Sedan.(beautiful). I have No complains for none of my Saturns.

German Engineered, Mexican made

2008 Saturn VUE Red Line 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful

I am very happy with my Vue Redline with a few exceptions. The good: Handles as well as, if not better than compareable, and more expensive, German crossovers. I have driven the X3 and the Vue handles as well. It's obvious when you drive the Redline that the vehicle was engineered in Germany. Even though it has a relatively small cargo area. However, Saturn designed an ingenious sliding cargo net that increases the flexibility of the cargo hold threefold. I was able to pack the family of 5 with $500 worth of Sam's Club groceries inside. The bad: Mexican assembly is also apparent. 1 recall and two minor trips to the dealer are frustrating. But overall good vehicle

The View On the Vue

I am a 24 year old mother of one and the view is my second car. I was excited about having my very first SUV! I love the car but must admit the seats are a TOTALLY HEADACHE! I hate the fact they become dirty so easily. I have yet to find something that will clean them. Other than the interior, the car is awesome. My son likes it and I do too. I would recommend this car just with leather seats!

Due to various job shifts within the auto industry I have owned two Ford Explorers, a Mercury Milan, a Lincoln MKZ, and a Grand Prix (GT) in the last 4 years. Prior to my Explorers I owned a GMC Jimmy and Mazda 626. None of the cars, not even the MKZ compared in styling, handling, and enjoyment in driving as my VUE. I can't imagine Saturn making any further improvements (except making the front seats a little longer). It's a wonderful vehicle and I highly recommend it to everyone!
