1995 Saturn SL review from North America
"I vote this car terrible"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I'm 19 now, but I've had this car for 2 years. It's my worst enemy.
It has the driver's side leak in the front door.
It has terrible traction on wet roads.
The whole car rattles like crazy, I hate driving on the freeway because the whole car shakes once I hit 60. Now I just stay off the freeway as much as possible.
It has a serious oil problem, I have to add oil every week.
The back windows don't roll up, that's probably not too common though.
Transmission and coolant leaks, they've been replaced twice.
Had all the hoses replaced three times.
It bucks like crazy, especially when reversing.
The AC has been replaced too.
I think the only good thing about mine is the brakes.
General comments?
I've put more money into repairing it than I've spent on school. So pretty much, this car goes to the repair shop more than I go to the doctor. Tired of wasting money on this piece of bologna, I'd rather buy burritos.
I have to wash all the antifreeze from my driveway all the time because I don't want to kill my cat.
