2003 Saturn VUE ALL WHEEL GRIVE review from North America
"Very affordable, but get rid of when warranty is due"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I fill the tank up, and I am not topping off, the car won, t start. It almost floods and shimmys before it kicks in.
The car won;t turn over when I put the key in the ignition. I have to jiggle it, pull on the steering wheel and keep forcing it until it starts. I have tried both sets of keys.
Had the sway bars replaced at 56,000 miles because it squeaked like it was rubbing all the time.
Gas mileage not good.
General comments?
Car is very noisy.
Steering is very quick and tricky at first.
Takes a bit for overdrive to kick in when you want to pass. Be sure you have ample room before you try to accelerate.
Like the inside of the car, but seats are a little stiff.
Blind spots all over the front and rear of the vechicle.
