Saturn Messes Up for 11th Time in a Row!!!!
Hello Everyone --
Just thought I'd let you know that my SES light came on again just 152 miles after they fixed the problem according to Saturn Engineering instructions. They kept the car for three days to do it!!!!!! One thing is very clear to me: Saturn dealer doesn't know what to do and gets instructions from Saturn Engineering. Second. Saturn Engineering has never been to engineering school. Three Saturn management should learn about how to keep a customer loyal. Their regional customer service gives me the same spiel everytime I call them: Sorry Mr. R. We intend to conract the dealer and work with him on your problem . I want results -- not fiction. I sent a letter to their president, yesterday. Probably will get no response!!!! Hey Saturn. How about getting with it. The car is obviously a lemon. You put out a product that will be illegal in New York State come April 1 of next year. How do you meet EPA STANDARDS when you design and manufacture and sell a car that you can't repair. Is it your political connections? I for one will never buy another Saturn and GM is out of my vocabulary as well. Maybe Saturn should design pedal cars for tots. Come to think of it, they would probably fail as well. George Following is a long saga of dealing with P0442 code on a 2000-Saturn SL2: Saturn has yet to fix this vehicle with reliability or credibility; the manufacturer doesn't seem to have the answer, either. Problem started 2 days after 3-year warranty was up: Last visit, car was in shop for three days. Car has never been to an outside mechanic. Notice repeat part replacements on this low mileage car. Come 4/1/2005 this car will not pass inspection in New York State. In fairness, Saturn has not charged me, but I can't even get another dealer to take this car as a trade-in. Any suggestions on what Saturn mechanics failed to do? They claim car passes pressure tests and smoke tests -- that the car is mechanically sound -- that there is no leak.
