1996 Saturn SL SL2 review from North America
"Very Unreliable Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lots of things have gone wrong with this car, here are just a few things that I can remember:
Alternator, transmission, engine, breaks, many oil leaks, temperature gage.
General comments?
I currently still own this car, but I am looking to get rid of it.
It is a money pit, it's in the shop every other week.
Everyone knows mechanics try to scam you, but my mechanic gets mad every time he see's me bringing in my car again.
I tell all my friends and thier friends never to buy a Saturn or an American car!
Spread the word! Saturn's are a bad investment!!
