EQUIPMENT
I OWN A 2003 SATURN VUE AND THE IGNITION KEEPS LOCKING UP ON ME. THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT TO WORK IS TO GIGGLE THE KEY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR. NOW THE KEY WILL NOT TURN IN THE IGNITION AT ALL AND THE CAR HAS TO BE TOWED AND REPAIRED. MY FATHER HAS THE SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AND HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. HE HAD IT FIXED AND IT HAS STARTED ALL OVER. SATURN SHOULD STOP PUTTING FAULTY PARTS IN ALL OF THEIR AUTOS. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I PURCHASED MY NEW 2003 SATURN VUE FROM YORK PA SATURN (SUTLIFF GROUP) AND THEY HAVE PATCHED UP MY 2003 VUE BY REPLACING VALVES, SENSORS ETC. ON THE VTI TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLES 4 OR 5 DIFFERENT TIMES, WHICH THEY WELL KNOW WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I STILL EXPERIENCE TRANSMISSION FAILURE DURING EXTENDED PERIODS OF DRIVING OR TIMES OF TRAFFIC JAM SITUATIONS. I HAVE EXPERIENCED TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS FROM THE 10,000 MILE POINT ON UNTIL THIS TIME. DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY INTO HIGHER GEAR , STILL MAKES GRINDING NOISES WHILE TURNING AND ACCELERATING AND OTHERWISE FAILS TO OPERATE PROPERLY. TRANSMISSION WAS LOOKED AT BY DEALER 5 TIMES AVOIDING THE ISSUE OF TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS HAVE INVOKED ME TO START A MAJOR CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE SATURN CORP. SATURN NEEDS TO HAVE A REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION - CONSUMERS CAN'T AFFORD ALL OF THESE REPAIRS FOR WHAT IS CLEARLY A FAULTY TRANSMISSION THAT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED! NEXT STEP IS CLASS ACTION SUIT BY OWNERS!!!! ALL I ASK IS FOR GM/SATURN TO REPLACE MY FAULTY DRIVE TRAIN (ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION) FREE OF ALL LABOR AND PARTS WITH THE NEW TYPE DRIVE TRAIN THAT IS IN THE NEW 2007-08 VUE !!! ITS THAT SIMPLE SATURN! AND UNTIL THIS HAPPENS THIS TRANSMITTAL WILL CONTINUE ON TO WEBSITES, PUBLIC POSTS, FLYERS, IN FRONT OF SATURN DEALERS ETC. ETC... PS. I HAVE COPIED THE CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY, THE GOVERNMENT RECALL BUREAU, ASTM, AND OTHER SITES TO LET THEM KNOW OF THIS HAZARD/SAFETY PROBLEM. I SUGGEST ALL OTHER CONSUMERS OF THE FAULTY 02-03 VUE AND HAVE THESE SAME PROBLEMS TO TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS, WORKING COLLEAGUES, ETC. GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT SATURN. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 SATURN VUE. WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 30-35 MPH, ALL FOUR WHEELS ON THE VEHICLE LOCKED IN PLACE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE SPUN OUT AND LANDED SIDEWAYS IN THE CENTER OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED AND A MECHANIC STATED THAT THE FAILURE COULD BE DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER ADVISED HER TO BRING THEM THE VEHICLE AND PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. THE CONTACT HAS NOT YET TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER BECAUSE SHE IS UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING IT AGAIN WITH HER CHILDREN ON BOARD. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 64,000.

LETTER EMAILED TO SATURN CORPORATION, 09/13/2008 DEAR SATURN CUSTOMER SERVICE, RE: 2003 SATURN VUE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2008, I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK AND THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT AND DECREASED POWER LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER CONTACTING THE LOCAL SATURN, IT WAS SUGGESTED TO HAVE MY VUE TOWED. SO, I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST SATURN DEALERSHIP, CAVENDAR, IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. TODAY, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2008, A DEALERSHIP REPRESENTATIVE CALLED ME THAT THEY HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 2008 TO CONTACT SOMEONE AT SATURN IN REGARD TO A POSSIBLE TRANSMISSION FAILURE. AFTER READING SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION USED IN THE 2003 SATURN VUE, DOES THE SATURN CORPORATION / GENERAL MOTORS HAVE A RECALL TO REPAIR THESE TRANSMISSIONS. MY CAR IS AT ABOUT 65,000 MILES. I BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AT THE TIME OF THIS NEW CAR PURCHASE IN 2003. THE WARRANTY ONLY LASTED FOR A TOTAL OF 5 YEARS OR 75,000 MILES. THE FIVE YEARS ENDED IN APPROXIMATELY MARCH OF 2008. AFTER READING SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION USED IN THE 2003 SATURN VUE, DOES THE SATURN CORPORATION / GENERAL MOTORS HAVE A RECALL TO REPAIR THESE TRANSMISSIONS? I HOPE THAT SATURN REALLY DOES CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS. SINCERELY, STEVEN WEIDNER, SATURN VUE OWNER, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS SEPTEMBER 13, 2008. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
PURCHASED 2003 SATURN VUE 12 MONTHS AGO. 4 MONTHS AFTER OWNING IT, THE MILEAGE EXCEEDED THE 83,000 MILE WARRANTY AND THE VEHICLES TRANSMISSION WENT OUT LEAVING ME STRANDED ON A BACK ROAD IN FLORIDA, BY MYSELF. IM A TRAVEL NURSE, I WAS OUT OF STATE AT THE TIME. IT COST ME 150.00 TO TOW IT AND 250.00 FOR SATURN TO LOOK AT IT, THEY WANTED 6000.00 TO FIX IT. A SMALL DEALERSHIP FIXED THE VTI TRANSMISSION IN IT AND IT LASTED ANOTHER 12000 MILES. IT IS AGAIN BROKE DOWN. I OWE 10000 ON THE CAR AND SATURN WONT RECALL THE VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW THEY HAVE LEFT 1000S OF CUSTOMERS OUT. I HAVE WORKED ALL MY LIFE TO MAINTAIN MY CREDIT NOW THANKS TO SATURN IT WILL BE RUINED. YET THEY HAVE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND THEY CANT HELP US OUT. THANKS SATURN. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE USED, THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AS I WENT UP A HILL. AFTER A FEW HOURS OF SITTING IT WORKED AGAIN SO I TOOK IT TO A DEALER. I HAD PURCHASED A POWERTRAIN WARRANTY SO REPAIRS WERE COVERED, BUT THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THERE HAD BEEN PROBLEMS WITH THIS MAKE/MODEL/YEAR. THIS OCCURRED AT ABOUT 55,000 MILES. NOW ABOUT A YEAR LATER AT 86,000 MILES AND JUST OVER THE WARRANTY LIMITS, THE TRANSMISSION HAS TROUBLE ENGAGING WHEN I PUT IT INTO DRIVE. I HAVE SINCE DONE SOME SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON YET THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL. *TR

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD
THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED WHEN HAND WASHING THE CAR! MILD CALIFORNIA WEATHER, NORMAL HOSE TEMPERATURE. WINDSHIELD FRACTURED OUTWARD FROM UNDER EDGE AT THE TOP CENTER. THERE WERE NO CHIPS OR CRACKS PRIOR. DEALER SAYS THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER GLASS. WE THOUGHT GETTING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DID JUST THAT, EXTENDED THE NORMAL WARRANTY. NOW WE HAVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE THAT IS TOO EXPENSIVE TO FIX! *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
2003 SATURN VUE, PURCHASED 11/2002. NOW STARTING TO STALL PERIODICALLY WHEN SHIFTING INTO REVERSE, ONLY 48,000 MILES AND TERRIBLY NOISY, GRINDING SOUND WHEN SLOWING AND STARTING. HAD KEPT LETTER FROM SATURN DATED 3/2004 EXTENDING WARRANTY FOR FAULTY VTI TRANSMISSION, ONLY GOOD FOR 5YEARS AFTER PURCHASE OR 75,000 MILES. AFTER VIEWING ALL OF THE CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET WHERE TRANSMISSIONS HAVE FAILED BETWEEN 50-60,000 MILES. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL. I'M UNFORTUNATELY OUTSIDE OF MY 5 YEAR PERIOD FOR ASSISTANCE IN REPAIRS. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
WHEN IT IS EITHER HUMID OR RAINY, DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK FROM THE INSIDE. WHEN I PRESS THE UNLOCK BUTTON, IT ELECTRONICALLY SWITCHES BETWEEN LOCK AND UNLOCK SEVERAL TIMES. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE DOOR OPEN IS TO HOLD IT DOWN THE BUTTON IN UNLOCK MODE, UNROLL THE WINDOW AND THEN I HAVE TO OPEN IT FROM THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLE. THIS HAS NOT BEEN A SAFETY ISSUE YET, BUT I FEAR THAT IT COULD BECOME ONE IF IT GETS ANY WORSE OR IF I EVER HAD TO GET OUT OF MY CAR QUICKLY. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED THE DOOR LATCH TWICE, WHICH HAS HAD NO IMPACT ON RESOLVING THE ISSUE AND I WILL BE RETURNING TO THEM TOMORROW FOR A THIRD TRIP TO RESOLVE THIS. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
MY 2003 SATURN VUE'S CHECK ENGINE AND SERVICE SOON LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE LOSES ALL POWER WHEN YOU START TO DECELERATE. MY MECHANIC COULD NOT GET ANY CODES TO REGISTER ON HIS COMPUTER, HOWEVER SATURN IS TELLING ME IT NEEDS A THERMOSTAT. I DON'T BELIEVE A FAULTY THERMOSTAT WOULD RENDER MY CAR LOSING ALL POWER. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
HEY - I PURCHASED A 2003 SATURN VUE IN FEB, 2008, AROUND MAY 1ST THE TRANSMISSION DIED ON IT. SINCE THEN I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. WHICH GM WILL NOT CALL A RECALL ON THESE TRANSMISSION. THEY ARE SO BAD THAT YOU CAN NOT FIND A WRECKED SATURN SO YOU CAN GET THE TRANSMISSION OUT TO REPLACE MINE. YOU CAN GET A REFURBISHED ONE FROM SATURN FOR $4,500.00. TO ME WITH THE PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE READ ABOUT GM SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION. GM KNOWS THAT THESE TRANSMISSION ARE DEFECTED BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT USING THEM ANYMORE. I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF YOU COULD AT LEAST TELL ME THE STEPS I WILL NEED TO TAKE TO TRY AND GET A RECALL ON THIS TYPE TRANSMISSION. THANKS. *TR

SUSPENSION:REAR
ON 5TH SET OF TIRES, UNEVEN WEAR, MAINLY RIGHT REAR. GETTING ONLY 12,000 MILES FOR 1ST 2 SETS, BOUGHT BETTER TIRES ELSEWHERE. TOLD OF NOISE AND VIBRATION. WAS TOLD WAS CAUSED BY WORN TIRES. WHEN TIRES WORE AGAIN, WENT TO DEALER TO REPLACE THE WORST, RIGHT REAR, AND TOLD OF UNEVEN WEAR, NOISE AND VIBRATION. WAS BLAMED WITH POOR MAINTENANCE, DEALER DID NOT TEST DRIVE. OFFERED ALIGNMENT, COULD NOT GET RIGHT REAR TO ALIGN. THEY SAID REPLACE KNUCKLE JOINT, BUT COULDN'T TELL ME IT WOULD FIX IT. TOLD THEM I COULDN'T AFFORD AT THAT TIME, DIDN'T TELL ME IT WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY. DIDN'T LIKE HOW I WAS TREATED, WENT ELSEWHERE FOR OTHER 3 TIRES. THEY ALSO SAID THE NOISE/VIBRATIONS FROM WORN TIRES. THEY ALIGNED NO PROBLEMS. REPLACED WHEEL BEARING MONTH LATER. EVERY 10 -12 MONTHS REPLACED TIRES AND ALIGN, ALL TOLD ME THE NOISE/VIBRATION FROM WORN TIRES (THE NOISE/VIBRATION WOULD GO AWAY WITH NEW TIRES). LAST ROUND, HAD TIRES, ALIGNMENT, NEW FRONT BRAKES, AND REAR BRAKES CLEANED. FOUND BROKEN REAR AXLE. REPLACED AXLE, NOISE/VIBRATION BACK, WITH NEW TIRES. THEY PULLED UP SERVICE BULLETIN FROM 2004, DEFECTIVE REAR DIFFERENTIAL SEAL LEAKING CAUSING THE CLUTCH DRUM TO GO. TOOK TO DEALER, THEY CONFIRMED REAR DIFFERENTIAL CLUTCH DRUM NEEDED REPLACED. THEY WOULD NOT PAY , AS NO WARRANTY, EVEN THOUGH THEY MISSED THE DIAGNOSIS IN 2006, UNDER WARRANTY. I ASKED THEM TO LOOK AT THE OLD AXLE (I HAVE ). THEY SAID IT LOOKED LIKE IT FELL APART, NOT BROKEN. BEEN TRYING TO REACH CORPORATE INVESTIGATOR OVER 3 WEEKS WITH NO LUCK. SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AS I HAVE READ NUMEROUS REPORTS OF OTHERS WITH THESE SAME ISSUES. NOTES: MILEAGE WAS DOCUMENTED 3000 MILES OVER ACTUAL ON 2 OCCASIONS (DEALER), WAS GIVEN A COMPETITOR WARRANTY COMPANY'S PHONE NUMBER WHEN I ASKED FOR DEALERS WARRANTY COMPANY PHONE NUMBER, AND CORPORATE DOCUMENTED MY PHONE NUMBER WRONG (EVEN AREA CODE) AND THEN TRIED TO BLAME ME. CURRENT MILEAGE IS 83,962, DEALER HAS ME DOCUMENTED AT 85623 ON 06/23/08. *TR

WHEEL BEARING REPLACED 3 TIMES NOW ON THE SAME WHEEL. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE WHEEL BARRING TWICE SO FAR FOR A 2003 VUE, NONE OF THIS WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE ACCORDING TO SATURN, IT ALL STARTED WHEN I HAD TO MUCH MILEAGE. I'M ABOUT TO REPLACE IT AGAIN FOR THE 3RD TIME AND I THOUGHT I SAW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL BUT APPARENTLY NOT. THERE IS NO CRASH TO REPORT BECAUSE IT MAKES THIS TERRIBLE NOISE THAT LETS ME KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING AND I CAN REPLACE IT BEFORE IT GETS BAD. *TR
