  • Great Car for the Money - 2002 Saturn VUE
    By -

    I purchased the vehicle in May and since then Ive been extremely happy with the suv. I looked into several other competing vehicles (Ford Escape, Hyundai Santa Fe and the Honda CRV), but nothing really came close to the price. You get the best bang for you buck and the sales people were extremely helpful and friendly. I love the power, but on a quick take off it, the rpms rev up quite a bit. Overall I highly recommend the Vue especially since not to many people drive it since its new. Its a great feeling being the only Saturn Vue on the road when you see at least 10-15 CRVs and Escapes all over the place.

  • Serious design flaw - 2002 Saturn VUE

    I love the car, BUT the engineering department needs to come up with a fix - and fast for me- to the REALLY aggravating noises coming from the front struts. I have had the dealer "repair" them three times and, in the last instance, we had someone from Tenn. come up to look at the car. This is NOT an isolated problem, they have reported numerous cases of this noise. The "fix" entailed packing the "dry" strut housing with marine grease until the engineering department can come up with a permanent fix. I called Saturn USA and got the hear no evil....... Its a shame because other than that the car has performed flawlessly in the 9,000 miles I have put on in three months.

    A great suv for a small family. I live in northern Maine and the vehicle has worked flawlessly. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a compact suv with real world usefullness. I owned a 01 RAV4 prior to the VUE. The VUE is alot more usefull and alot tougher suv than the RAV every was!!

    Stunning vehicle. The orange looks like a copper penny in the right light. Very impressed with its size, features, fuel economy and price. Plus it drives better than my Alero. Very spirited driver. Too bad a lot of people forget about Saturn.

  • I Love My Saturn VUE - 2002 Saturn VUE

    We tried the Ford Escape and the brake lights would not go out after just 2 days. My Saturn Vue has been WONDERFUL. I cannot imagine having any other small SUV. The price was wonderful, the gas mileage is so much better than the Escape, and Saturn has been simply wonderful. I will be a Saturn owner for life. Sometimes it is the little options that are standard that make all the difference in the world. From the Grocery carrier, to the speakers. I love my VUE.

  • You Should VUE - 2002 Saturn VUE
    By -

    This is the second Saturn I owned, first was a 1996 SL1. Also a great vechile, I put 100,000 in 6 six years, and plan on doing the same with my VUE. I really appreciate the space and airy feeling when driving it. Very comfortable and practicle. Being 53" or 63" makes no difference, everyone will fit comfprtably while enjoying the ride. I researched many other cars, including the Land Rover Freelander, and the Subaru Forester, there is NO competition.
