Great - 2006 Saturn Relay
By Joe - April 21 - 12:50 amI have found that the Relay is a great vehicle to drive and the gas mileage on our Relay has been fantastic. The included DVD player has been a lifesaver. I also love the electrical outlet that allows you to plug in regular electric products like a PS 2 game system.

Few problems, but great buy - 2006 Saturn Relay
By TTC - March 22 - 7:10 amExcellent experience with this, my first Saturn. It handles well, convenient features (cargo trays, sliidng doors, DVD. Mileage 16 city, 24 hwy. No fit or finish problems. Only problems were flickering lights (fixed by dealer) and a radio that refuses to get any AM station (all FM stations are perfect!).

Yugos were better. - 2006 Saturn Relay
By Daddyainthappy - February 10 - 8:40 amNot really but not far off. I had this thing in the shop four times while it was under warranty for an annoying popping/clicking noise in the front end. Each time they said they had it fixed and alas, it is now out of warranty and still pops.Oh, and the service engine light came on about 2000 miles after warranty expired. The computer code shows the catalytic converter is not functioning properly. Now my transmission is slipping horribly. Fluid is clean and has always been full. This van has not been driven hard or fast. It is simply a lemon and from looking at the other reviews, it is not alone in its misery.

Domestics are still great - 2006 Saturn Relay
By BP - December 30 - 5:06 pmThis was a much better deal than Toyota or Honda and looks far better than either. We will likely buy Saturn again if they keep making this van.

Saturn 2006 Relay 3 - 2006 Saturn Relay
By Lady Anne - September 28 - 5:10 amThe Relay 3 was the perfect minivan for us. As a disabled veteran a wheelchair, so we needed something with a lot of room but did not want a full sized van. The interior is very roomy, it comes standard with a DVD player and a 120 outlet in the back. Ours had the entertainment package & came with 2 wireless headphones as well. The center & backrow seats and toy box, lift out very easily, and there is tons of storage. Driving the Relay has been refreshing as well. It handles extremely well and has fantastic pickup. I highly recommend the Relay to everyone looking for an affordable minivan with lots of room, tons of standard features, and is fun to drive.

Very Satisfied with Relay. - 2006 Saturn Relay
By Mad Matt - March 13 - 11:13 pmI tested most minivans before purchasing the Relay. Great braking and handling. Confortable for long trips. I bought with heavy incentives from GM, and I like it more that the Honda and Hyundai. I paid 7k less than most of the competition and it is a better minivan. Cant beat that.

Not 100% happy - 2006 Saturn Relay
By gr8joy75 - June 7 - 2:23 pmLike many others, our Relay has been in for repairs numerous times. From the beginning it doesnt want to start at times. Now that warranty is expired they found problem. Imagine that! We dont have the problem with the molding like others, but it has been in for the brakes, sway bar, rear upper light, back seat pull broke, air vent broke (all plastic on it is cheap) shortly after purchase. Gets better gas mileage than others reported, but we set cruise at 65mph. Hwy mpg is about 28-30. Seats are difficult to get out. Otherwise, its a good vehicle.
