2002 Saturn VUE review from North America
"I like it and will take on the challenge"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My engine light came on. I purchased it 3 days ago. I had my brother decode it and got 7 error codes!
Also, my seatbelt light flashes randomly while I'm driving and buckled up.
General comments?
I do really love my car, especially the dent resistant doors. I am prepared to take on the problems it may have. I am more upset that the dealer I bought it from probably knew about the problems, and cleared the engine light before I bought it.
The error is just a crankshaft sensor, and my brother is a mechanic. He told me to buy this car, and I trust him.
Car needs to be maintained, and do have problems, the important thing is to take care of it right away and have a good mechanic.
I work for a dealership, and I trust my brother more than the mechanics there.
