1997 Saturn SL review from North America
"I love my Saturn"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My shift cable broke two times.
General comments?
This vehicle is great on gas.
I have had only one problem and cant seem to find out what is wrong. It is sometimes hard to put into first gear, but not all the time. Having to put alot of pressure on the gear shift to get it in gear is causing the shift cable to break. I have fixed the cable two times, and it is getting expensive. Can any help and tell me what might be wrong?
