2000 Saturn LS LS1 review from North America
"Do not buy this car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear main oil seal broke, continuous vibrations in steering after countless rebalances & alignments.
Interior, things just fall off, very cheap, weak car.
The "security" light repeatedly goes off and leaves you stranded and looking foolish as you twitch the ignition key. Saturn has denied there is a problem, as with all the probems that I know exist. Too many problems for this thread.
General comments?
A very cheap (quality and msrp) and weak car. Let's not talk about insurance rates for this "car".
