2002 Saturn VUE review from North America
"Probably a lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had the SES(service engine) light on on several occasions and reduced power light as well. It has stalled and stopped on 3-different occasions. I have also had reduced power, this morning while climbing a short hill in my Vue I could not accelerate past 20mph.
I have had my vehicle at the dealer 4x's since July and also paid $1980. for a new harness in July.
Every time I leave the dealership, they say my problem has been cleared up. I have towed my vehicle twice into the dealership so I don't think my problem is going to go away. plus I have had to leave at the dealership for 3-days at a time.
General comments?
I have replaced 3-batteries because of cable corrosion and now my SES and reduced power issues. I cannot say this vehicle has been a WINNER.
