2004 Saturn VUE review from North America
"Complete lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
39K miles, Ignition control module was replaced ($200)
41K miles, slave cylinder & clutch went out ($1200)
44K miles, engine leaking gas and had to replace fuel rail for another $300.
'Check Engine' light has been on for over a year and no one can figure out why.
Makes a mysterious squeaking noise after shutting the vehicle off.
General comments?
It's comfortable.
Looks cute.
Cheap to buy but very expensive to maintain.
