2003 Saturn L300 review from North America
"Lousy service"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There is an intermittant short in the AC/Heater system.
General comments?
I was very happy with this car until I had this problem with the Air Conditioner/Heater system. The dealer is unable to repair this item because every time it is taken there the first thing they do is jiggle wires until it starts working again. The problem is known by some of the service technicians, but the service manager refuses to do any repairs until he sees the problem himself.
