2003 Saturn VUE 2.2L FWD review from North America

"A great SUV that was unfortunately plundered with some problems in its first year"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Only a small part in the transmission had to be replaced, no big deal. Otherwise I haven't had anything wrong. I see that a lot of 2002 and some 2003 owners had a lot of problems, but it seems to be V6 models. Well, just so you guys know, that there is a better V6 for 2004, GM decided to use a more powerful and better engine, and it's from Honda, and it also has a Honda transmission too.

General comments?

Even though others have had huge problems, I feel sorry for them, but I heard that GM struggled in 2002 with the VUE as they admitted to glitches and problems with shipping. I heard this from Consumer Guide, but they have been corrected. Although I love my Pontiac Sunfire Convertible I had before, I needed an SUV, and this one is such a great one, I love the gas mileage of the 4-cylinder, it handles well and drives nicely in the snow. I would recommend the VUE to anyone as GM made the effort to correct these problems. I love it and I hope that the people who own 2002's who had problems with it will be able to enjoy the nice aspects of this car.
