2004 Saturn VUE V6 AWD review from North America
"Crap!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I go through brake pads like CRAZY and have replaced the rotors twice (due to the dealer telling me the brake pads were still OK).
The car gets progressively louder every few months.
The seats squeak like on a school bus and I find them uncomfortable on long rides.
There's horrible wind noise from the windows.
You can barely hear the radio when sitting in the back seat because the speakers are by your feet. I thought my kids were crazy when they kept saying "put the music louder" until I had to sit in the back myself.
I've put at least $3,000 into this car on repairs, but can't think of all of them right now.
General comments?
No more Saturns for me. Honda's, Toyota's or other foreign cars for me!
