Went thru 6" of water during rain storm. The engine stalled and had to be towed to dealer. The engine sucked water thru the air intake and into the cylinder. Engine became locked. Apparently the air intake is located below the front bumper. Took 16 days to get repaired. The dealership lied and said no engine was available. A call to Saturn confirmed that they had plenty of engines. Mechanics left black grease on car seats. The district supervisor from Saturn was no help and said they would not help with rental car bill.
Anyone else with this problem, so we
can prompt a recall?
I had the very same issue with my '05 VUE. Although, my incident was not covered by the warranty. This is my second and LAST Saturn that I will purchase. German or Japanese for me next time.
You do know that the V6 version of the 2004 VUE has a Japanese (Honda) motor in it, right?
