2004 Saturn VUE

Don't buy! Suited for a high-schooler-poor quality

By Tink (NC) on Friday, May 17, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 173,000

Pros: "price"

Cons: "noisy, doesn't drive well"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1

"I used to hear all kinds of noise from this vehicle. Poor poor quality. I owned an explorer prior and this car really made me miss my ford. The steering was poor quality. This is a great car for someone who doesn't travel much or a first time driver but not for an adult unless maybe an older person who doesn't travel. For the price I guess it was good for point A to point B but I would not recommend this car for long term. I was always having to do additional maintenance to it."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"drives good, handles good, rides good, no mechainchal issues, good mileage. put gas in, keep your oil changed every 3000 miles, change all of your filters, keep all fulids topped off, don't run cheap tires, buy good tires they last longer. the long and the short of it u get what u pay for. you take care of it and it will take care of you."

Doesn't disappoint!

By Jason (TN) on Wednesday, March 27, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 86,000

Pros: "value, hybrid, gas mileage, comfort, convenience,"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 7

"I bought this car used. I believe I'm the third owner and have owned it for 1.5 years. I have to say that I love it. I own the hybrid model. It takes some getting used to (the shutting off of the engine during complete stops) but other than that it drives very nicely. I find that it gets 24-26 consistently around Nashville and have occasionally received 30 mpg on highway travel. It's comfortable and a good size for the money. I haven't had any issues with it (knock on wood)."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 9

"The only reason I sold this vehicle is that i needed a 4 wheel drive truck for work . I already miss it and want to buy another one . I would get one with low miles to avoid any transmissions issues . Great Ski vehicle !"

Worst vehicle

By Bible girl (IN) on Monday, March 18, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 190,000

Cons: "Unreliable, bad transmission, bad gas mileage"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1

"One of the worst vehicles I have had. It is nice on the inside of the car, but that masks the true horror of this car. I have had major issues with the car since shortly after I purchased this car. The transmission in this car, has been replaced once, and less than two weeks later I am back to having the original problem that led to it being replaced the first time. It was replaced the first time because it was a 2002 model and these models had transmissions placed in them that were known to have a high rate of failure. I am getting rid of this car as soon as possible before it fails on me. It is not worth fixing again just to have it need fixed again a couple weeks later. I would NEVER recommend a Saturn Vue to any one that I know, because of the problems I have had with this vehicle."
