Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I hear a lot of problems with the sunroof not working properly. I went to the dealer and they were going to charge me over $1000. I told them no because I think it should be free since a lot of Saturn owners have problems with it. Why hasn't there been a recall on them?”

NHTSA complaint #10234341, filed 2008-07

“The vehicle had 7 different internal leaks in the passenger cabin from the windows, sunroof, etc. Which resulted in serious respiratory problems. The dealer replaced the interior 3 times and the headliner twice. Consumer stated that mold spores had formed in the vehicle. **consumer requests call back from an odi investigator**”
