2001 Saturn SL SL2 review from North America
"Good car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leather on headrest came loose on the front passanger seat at 25,000 miles.
Driver side interior door panal cracked on the armrest at 32,000 miles.
Kick panel came loose on the center console at 35,000 miles.
All parts were repaired/replaced under warranty and have had not problems since.
General comments?
The car runs smoothly and handles well. I have had not mechanical problems with the car yet.
Seats could be a little more comfortable for long trips. Your legs start falling asleep after about 2 hours.
