2000 Saturn LS review from North America
"This car is a time bomb just waiting to leave you stranded"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear brake lights at 73,000
Power window switch at 75,000
Winshield wipers stuck up at 82,000
Timing chain broke at 89,000.
General comments?
This car is bad news. Timing chain went bad at 89,000 miles and when they go, watch out. The repair bill most likely be 2000.00 plus.
Don't call the dealer, they will just say you did not change your oil on time.
