1997 Saturn SL review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It absorbes so much oil. I have to change the oil exactly every 1700 miles otherwise I will be enjoying a noisey drive. I work as a transportation engineer which requires me to drive all the time around the state and that coast me about $40 a month only for oil change done in my garage.
Interior Parts for some odd reasons like to make lots of noise.
Radio buttons are weird.
Gas pedal is very stiff. You can't hit the gas gradually. have to hit it hard which is annoying especially if you are drinking coffee.
