2003 Saturn VUE AWD / VTI review from North America
"A great value and a good car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A rumble or vibration between 55-70 mph.
A small, but noticeable squeak in the steering wheel.
General comments?
I bought the car in December and I now have 9200 miles on, and I have had no real problems with car. I live in the northeast and we have a pretty horrible winter this past year, but the all wheel drive was great, it always got me home, and I have to travel some very steep hills to get there. All in all it is a great vehicle with a strong motor and very nice transmission, they work well together.
The only service I have had were oil changes and to update the program for the transmission.
The steering wheel squeak I had has quietly gone away by itself.
The back seat has the most room I have seen in an SUV of this size.
