1997 Saturn SW review from North America
"Piece of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The air conditioner went out 90 days after I purchased it. With 79000 The belt froze, and the compressor quit. This month it no longer will go into reverse. The car rattles all the time.
I just want to get rid of it, but can't the way it is running.
I would never purchase another used Saturn.
General comments?
This car is a real lemon, no wonder it has been sold so many times.
