Saturn on GM's chopping block?
Not sure where the design came from but mine was built in Delaware.

SATURN .. heck with SATURN being on GM's chopping block........ GM is on their own chopping block ------------- My Aunt, who buys a new car every 2 years, bought a new Chevrolet Corsica .. drove it .. kept hearing this "rattling noise" in the front left. After 2 trips to the Chevy Dealer with no mechnical problems found - but the rattle still there - 3rd trip produced a Body Shop trip. Removal of the inner and outer fender produced an empty beer can inside the fender. Needless to say she has no sympathy for the UAW WORKERS at GM. She'll probably buy a new car in the next 2 years, doubt it will be a GM product though. |
