We have owned this carn for quite some time. There have only been 3 issues. 1)BCM died once. 2)Water pump just died 3) Battery dies if you leave the ligts on more than 20 minutes.

Either than that, this is a very smooth running car. It works well in Canada through the winter and summer. It has enough power for when you have to merge onto the highway, but it doesn't drink gas. It is low to the ground. A very solid GM car. Even my mechanic agrees. He told me that Saturns are great and that it should be drive "till the engine block cracks".

With the exterior mold being plastic, and not metal, it does not rust, and any minor fender benders pop right back out.
