This car is a living nightmare, if I could afford it, I would get a new car. I have so far replaced, both front and rear brakes twice, three batteries, 27 tires, this will be the third fuel pump, the solenoid, the fuel line, the oil pump, the middle console cover and the handle that turns the blinkers on. I truly believe this car should be recalled. The last time I called Saturn and asked about the fuel pump, they told me it would cost me 700.00 dollars to fix, because the part cost 350.00 and the rest was LABOR! $350 in labor? I want a job there. Well, I told them I was buying a used one and they tell me I have to buy a new one because on the L300 the fuel pump has a plastic wheel (or some such piece) that cracks. So I ask the guy, does the new one also have this plastic thingy, and he says yes, so I asked him, "then why the hell would I buy a new one?"

Another strange thing was when the place was still actually Saturn, I brought it in and they give me this print out of all the things that need fixing...the solenoid 775.00 and the BCM - 700.00. I never did the BCM but did the solenoid (another mechanic, I am not crazy). Two years later I bring it back to what was Saturn and still has Saturn mechanics and are considered "Saturn dealer repair", they tell me there is no record of me needing a BCM. Leads me to believe it was bs in the first place.
