Hello - I have a '96 Saturn SL1. My brake pedal takes forever to finally "catch". The brakes are fine, pads, fluid and all. The thoughts are that it may be the master cylinder, or it may not. If it is great, if it isn't I'm out over $200 for nothing. Everyone I have talked to about it says Saturns are weird and it may not be the cylinder at all, including my mechanic. So - I was wondering if anyone else had experience with a problem like this - or if someone may just know if the cylinder is the problem or not. To replace or not to replace - That is the question! Thanks, Christine |

My 96' SC1 has been dropping gears for well over a month now. The first occurrance happened on my way home from work (a 45 min drive) and all gears besides second were lost. Since I was less than a block away from a mechanic, he got the keys and the car. Seems the shifter cable had snapped. Since the part has been replaced, it seems the car only goes for about six or seven days before losing all the gears besides one, except this time it is in the shop with only 1st, 3rd, and 5th working. I no longer have any faith in this mechanic's ability to actually fix the car, but since his work is under warranty and I dont' have the money right now to take it to someone I trust a little more, it's gone back to him. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should tell him to look at? Obviously, this whole breaking down every weekend thing is getting to be a huge problem, as my car being in the shop is keeping us from getting our other vehicles fixed (two of which need work) and has left us this week without ANY vehicles with which to get to or from work. I'm rather desperate for answers (or a skilled mechanic) |

My 2003 Vue has begun displaying the ABS indicator on the dash. When the ABS light is lit, the Traction Control is off and cannot be re-activated. Obviously, a correlation. Sometimes, the ABS light is off and my Traction Control light is on (indicating feature active). Before I have the dealer diagnose, are there common problems associated with the ABS I should know about? Quick Specs: purch new 10/02; 4-cyl; 5-speed manual; FWD; <50k mi. |

One day about a year ago, I started my car and a "reduced power" light came on. I reversed out of my spot, only to realize "reduced power" meant no power. I turned my car off, then back on and it seemed to be working fine, besides the "Service engine soon" light being on. That same week, I tried to start it, and it seemed like it wanted to start, but wouldn't. I eventually got it to start and took it to the dealer. They replaced the ECM... a month later, they replaced it again. After 3 new ECM units, they then decided it was the fuel pump. It has been a year now, and after my most recent visit to the dealership, the assured me this would not happen again. Today, it did.... |

I had a 2002 L100 which had the entire right front wheel assembly including brake, axle strut etc come off while driving down an interstate. Saturn claims an object got under the front bumper and then took out the entire wheel assembly then disappeared as the police responding could not find anything in the road. I had to ride guard rail to stop. I wonder if anyone has had any similar or partial problems. Car had 73000 miles on it and has been totaled by insurance company. Thanks. |
