2006 Saturn VUE review from North America
"This is fairly good value, though the estimated MPG should indicate the truth of the SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power rear view mirror driver's door stopped working.
Driver's door speaker makes a crackling noise.
Squeaks and rattles a bit from the dash from time to time.
Carpet soils easily and does not clean well.
General comments?
Overall this SUV is great.
I am very disappointed in the fuel economy. Vue is estimated at between 23 to 29 highway. I average about 21.5 traveling about 70 to 78 miles an hour.
Saturn service is great. My dealership in Tallahasee is the best I have ever dealt with. I have owned Saab, Mercedes, Ford and BMW.
The seats are very comfortable, though my VUE lacks lumbar support.
My VUE did not come with ABS or $ wheel disk brakes, which I feel for a car that is 18K plus should come standard. In wet weather here in Florida, ABS comes in handy.
My partner states he loves the deep and firm fitting cup holders, as well as all the storage places.
