1996 Saturn SW review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil related engine failure.
General comments?
Same as the other comments I read here. The oil failure is what caused my 1.9 to throw a rod. I will never buy a Saturn again. I know that Saturn has to be aware of the problem, and has made no moves to recall or correct the problem.
