2003 Saturn VUE review from North America
"I love my VUE"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
An ABS (anti-lock brake system) wheel speed sensor failed.
General comments?
The VUE handles well, is good on gas, and was an excellent bargain for the price I paid.
It's great for long trips (comfort and fuel economy) and the gas mileage is pretty good around town too.
It's very easy to do your own oil changes, as the oil filter is accessible from the top of the engine.
It can haul a significant amount of cargo with the seats folded down. I have used it to move twice and helped friends move multiple times. The fold-flat front passenger seat allows you to transport long or unusally shaped objects.
