1996 Saturn SL review from North America
"Saturn is great!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My PVC valve and 02 sensor have gone out twice. Easy to fix - not expensive if you do it yourself. Cost me $300 the first time to have it done; $30 the second time - did it myself. The car does burn a bit of oil, but with regular oil changes and topping off in between, it runs great and has been very dependable so far from Texas to Oregon and beyond!
General comments?
I love my Saturn. I depend on it and I would buy another one in a heartbeat.
