Replying to: nelson (Oct 06, 2006 6:44 am) I had a rattle/squeak that would come from either side on an 04 Vue when going over bumps.   They first replaced the brake caliper pin and bracket, which had nothing to do with it, because the noise wasn't when braking.   Then they went for the sway bar links, but still nothing.   Finally, they nailed it by replacing the strut tower. You'd think the fact that I told them the noise was coming from the strut in the first place, would have pointed them in the right direction, but anyway, it's fixed now.
#3659 of 3765 Does the Saturn have a free 100k warranty by gunga64 Dec 06, 2006 (12:52 pm)
Since Saturn is part of GM and since GM I read is giving 100k warrantys now. Does Saturn fall under that? Replies to this message: gunga64 (Dec 06, 2006 12:54 pm)

Replying to: gunga64 (Dec 06, 2006 12:52 pm) Oh I found it 100k 5 year powertrain. Not sure if thats enough. I thought it was bumper to bumper.

Replying to: carguy1234 (Nov 10, 2005 7:00 pm) So how did they work out. I am going through the same dilema, especially since people (GM people) have said that it will negatively affect the braking computer, speedometer, and even cause a "service engine soon" warning to come on.

#3663 of 3765 Just Had The Links Replaced by martian Jan 06, 2007 (1:03 am)
(Under warranty)-totally worn out at 20,000 miles. They have had this problem for 5 years now-why did they use this rather fragile link design? The old "hershey" links worked well, and were cheap to replace (not that they ever wore out). Anyway, GM probaly save 5 cents/car with the new design-wonder what their warranty costs were!
#3664 of 3765 Plastic to Metal by gunga64 Jan 09, 2007 (6:33 am)
I just read in the other forum that they are going to change the panels to metal from plastic in 2008. How stupid is Saturn. Thats one thing that is a plus. I have never seen a Saturn with the plastic panels that looked bad. They get a good technology and then dump it to save a buck. The VUE imo was a very good looking SUV now the 2008 looks like a Hyundai. GM is going to go under for sure.   More and more it looks like I will be staying with imports. It's a shame, those plastic panels were what made Saturn standout.   http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/autos/columnists.nsf/danwiese/story/A92A51B5B77- - 3B04E8625724A0057B0F3?OpenDocument Replies to this message: wtd44 (Jan 13, 2007 2:41 pm)

Replying to: gunga64 (Jan 09, 2007 6:33 am) Those Hyundais must look good, then!   I have a 2003 that I bought new. It just passed 38,000 miles on the odometer, and ZOUNDS! This has been one great vehicle up to this point. I am thinking I would rather have an automatic than this standard tranny model, but it runs like a top. The factory recall for the rear suspension was easy to get handled, although I never had ANY problem with the suspension on this particular Vue. I can't say I am particularly moved one way or the other about any change in the body panel materials coming up. I may eventually need an Aura...
#3666 of 3765 Egads reading the past reviews on this VUE!! by gunga64 Jan 15, 2007 (12:52 pm)
Well I can take the VUE off my list. I have never seen so many complaints before. Between engines, transmissions loose parts, loose suspensions, sensors going bad, lousey service.   You know I was about to give Saturn a shot. Even though my parents owned a Pontiac van 2 years ago that was a nightmare. I figured heck this Vue looks like it could be a good thing. But reading the forums of past history just convinced me to look elsewhere. Also I think CR has a good record on what is good and bad. I don't like the VUEs past history.
