>My current ride is a 2001 Saturn with 150,000 miles on the clock. It >was never, ever a high-performance vehicle, and it has the usual >problems and idiosyncrasies you'd expect from a car that old. But for >those who don't know, the old Saturns, especially the SL line... man, >you CANNOT kill them. Seconded. Until Saturn went out of business, that was all we bought for nigh onto twenty years. Which meant two cars, both SL1s. Whose total combined mileage as of 2014 was somewhere in the vicinity of 0.6 million miles. The only systematic problem we ever had was that our '94 burned through alternators every year or two for the first several years we had it. The second or third time that happened, I mentioned this to the customer relations folks at the dealership, and how it was a big hit on our finances every time (most of them happening post-warranty). Two weeks later we got a check from Saturn Corporate for the cost of that most recent replacement, and an apologetic letter from a VP. Saturn was a class act in every way, and I still mourn their death in the financial crisis. -- Bob (Oh, and the newest, post-Saturn car? Hyundai Sonata, chosen after much research, especially via Consumer's Union. Wonderful car. But it's not a Saturn SL1.) ------------------- My race is pacifist and does not believe in war. We kill only out of personal spite. |
