2003 SATURN VUE Complaints

VEHICLE WOULD DECELERATE WHILE DRIVING FROM A STOP POSTION, AND TRANSMISSION WOULD MAKE A GRINDING NOISE. DEALER WAS NOTIFIED.*AK

THE HORN SOUNDED LOWER WHEN THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING, SOMETIMES WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS OFF, IT DID NOT WORK AT ALL. THE HORN HAS BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES. THE DEALERS SOLUTION WAS TO TRY REMOVING A HORN FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE ON THE LOT, HOWEVER MOST OF THE HORNS WERE DEFECTIVE. *JB

WHEN THE CONSUMER APPLIED GAS PEDAL, THE VEHICLE DID NOT MOVE. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED. *JB

SATURN IS STALLING ABOUT FIXING THE RECALL WORK ON MY UNSAFE 2003 SATURN VUE.*AK

FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE WARRANTY TRANSMISSION HAS CONTINUED TO MAKE HORRIBLY LOUD AND ANNOYING GRINDING AND WHIRRING SOUNDS THAT CONTINUE TO GET WORSE AND WORSE. I HAVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION IN 8 TIMES AND THE PROBLEM REMAINS. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO EVOKE THE LEMON LAW, BOTH CORPORATE AND THE DEALER WERE EXTREMELY BELLIGERANT AND UNCOOPERATIVE--DENYING THAT ANY PROBLEM EXISTED. THIS IS DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM WAS SO SEVERE THAT SATURN STOPPED PRODUCTION ON THE VUE WITH CTI TRANSMISSION AND HAS MADE THE DECISION NOT TO CONTINUE TO USE IT AFTER THIS YEAR'S MODEL END. IMMEDIATGELY UPON EVOKING THE LEMON LAW, NOT ONLY DID CORPORATE REFUSE TO HONOR IT, BUT ORPORATE TOLD THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP NOT TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH FIXING MY CAR WITHOUT THEIR APPROVAL.*AK

BAD WEATHER CONDITIONS (RAIN) CAR HIT SIDE GUARD ON HIGHWAY, REAR WHEEL SNAPPED OFF CAUSING ROLL OVER - RESULTED IN INJURY TO DRIVER - CAR TOTALLY DESTRYOED. *JB

WE HAVE CONTINUALLY HAD OUR STRUTS ADJUSTED/AND OR REPLACED. WE HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR MORE THAN 15 TIMES IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS. WE HAVE HAD THE STRUTS REPLACED AT LEAST 4 TIMES AND HAD TO HAVE TIRES REPLACED DUE TO ALIGNMENT ISSUES CAUSED BY THE STRUT PROBLEMS. THE CAR WAS FIRST BROUGHT IN ABOUT 11 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE AND ALMOST EVERY MONTH - MONTH AND A HALF SINCE THEN.*AK
