2003 Saturn ION 1 review from North America
"Worth the money!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The left amber signal light blew out, and the dealership put a new one in for me.
General comments?
The ION is cost-efficient and very reliable car, with exceptional customer service and back-up.
Adaptability to the new features was fast and easy (centered instrument, small diameter and electronic power steering wheel).
This car has excellent handling, great pick up and the shocks are incredible when you go over pot holes.
I love the extra large trunk space, but the back seats lack leg room. I'm the driver so it doesn't really concern me.
Overall, I like the modern design with decent speed. For once, a Saturn vehicle comes to par with the incredible Honda!
