1997 Saturn SC 1 review from North America
"I think this is a safe, reliable, economical car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I can honestly say that I have had very few problems with this car.
I replaced my alternator after sitting in traffic for hours, but this was to be expected.
I have a hard time putting the gear into first at times.
General comments?
This car is great on gas and has been reliable.
The only downfall with this car is its' size. It is small and is better for one person and not a family.
