I just bought my v6 vue loaded with leather, I just can't say enough about it, I don't know why people says it gets bad gas milage, I am getting 27.5 mile per gallon on highway not bad for an suv and did I mention the power 257 hp wow and the 6 speed transmission is great. Too bad this company is going bye bye. The only thing this suv should have is seperate climate controls. So, if you are looking for a great suv with great looks, handling and power don't hesitate go and get yourself the xr v6 sat vue now before it is too late.

Saturn Vue Delivers

The Vue is fun to drive. I recently took it up mountains with three passengers. The V-6 with the manual mode shift made the drive easy work and fun. The car has excellent control to hug the curves and ample power to negotiate the inclines.The features including On-Star Directions and Connections and the satellite radio added to the driving pleasure. The fuel economy is still somewhat disappointing, but the car is not yet broken in. I would not hesitate to recommend either the 4 cylinder or V-6. Fred Saunders

Just purchased this car used with low miles on it. Excited to see how it handles. So far I love the interior, the solidness of the build and the way it looks. Its really starting to shine. I'll be doing some good detailing on it since I am somewhat compulsive when it comes to cars. Replacing a '05 Ford Escape base model. I don't think even the '09 version of the Escape XLT matches this car.

Undecided 09

2009 Saturn VUE XE 4dr SUV AWD (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
5 of 9 people found this review helpful

I recently purchased an 09 Saturn Vue XE AWD it had 64300 miles in it. Had it for 4 days and it had terrible gas milage, and the was a jaulting feeling and sometimes when putting it in drive it wouldn't move. So I returned it to the car lot and they sent it to the dealership. The transmission has to be replaced. After 4 days I don't like the car, I opted into financing it with the car lot and now I'm stuck having to pay for a car I don't like. I hope after the transmission is fixed it will be better on gas and changes my mind about it. Because after all I still have to pay for it ,the car lot won't let me return it and I haven't even made my 1st payment on it.

A mixed bag, mostly OK

Nice looking outside, OK inside. Seats stain very easily, and are a bit narrow. The seat back cushion feels like a large lump for support. The electronic temp gauges taking a while to change from cold to hot & vice versa. Lights in console and dial gauges a strange yellow color, not pleasing to the eyes. Additionally the console gauges seem to be tipped upwards a bit, so if you sit low and back they are not straight on. Plastic around ateering wheel column rubs when turning wheel. Not enough legroom up front. I am 5'10", and could not stretch out legs on long drive.
