Up for sale is my wife's 2004 all-wheel drive Saturn Vue.  She is the 2nd owner and purchased it from a Saturn dealer in 2008.  The reason we are selling is because we bought a boat and need an SUV capable of pulling it.  It has a clear MN title and has never been in any major accidents.

The good:

  • Only 124,500 miles.
  • All wheel drive works great in the snow.
  • This car is very reliable and runs great; it is currently her daily driver.
  • 4 new tires last year and alignment.
  • Transmission flush last year.
  • It has always had regular oil changes and maintenance.
  • Does not leak any fluids or burn any oil.
  • No rust.
  • Runs great!

Why it is so cheap:

  • Transmission occasionally neutralizes (shifts into neutral on it's own) in stop and go conditions.  When it does this it immediately shifts back into gear so it has never left us stranded, it is just occasionally annoying.
  • ABS light is on.
  • Check coolant level light is on (has been stuck on for several years, coolant level and temp has always been fine).
  • There is some moderate hail damage on the hood as well as some scratches here and there as seen in the pictures.
  • The interior does not have any rips or tears but the carpet could use a good cleaning. There are one or two small cigarette burns in the carpet from the previous owner.

As listed above, this car is not perfect and the starting bid price reflects that.  It is still a good reliable SUV and is ready to be driven anywhere. 

Please feel free to call me at 651-338-3834 with questions.  $200 non-refundable deposit through Paypal is required at auction close; the rest can be paid either cash in person or through paypal prior to the Vue leaving my house.

VIDEO: Saturn's demise? We blame Jim Gaffigan*

Fri, 02 Oct 2009


Click above to view the video after the jump
When the deal to sell Saturn to Penske Automotive fell through, there were likely a lot of surprised people at General Motors' Detroit, MI headquarters. Penske released a statement saying that the reason the deal fell through after months of good faith negotiations was that a suitable post-GM supply of vehicles could not be found. However, after reacquainting ourselves with over eight minutes of outtakes from Jim Gaffigan's old Saturn commercial, we're thinking the comedic pitchman is to blame.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

Recalled Saturn Ion facing separate federal safety probe

Fri, 21 Mar 2014

General Motors may be staring down another recall campaign for one of its models already embroiled in its high-profile ignition recall. The 2003-2007 Saturn Ion is already among the 1.6-million vehicles being recalled for faulty ignition switches, and now new light is being shed on a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation over 2004-2007 models centering on a loss of power steering.
The government safety regulator has received 846 complaints about the problem and claims that GM has had 3,489 reports of failure. Of those cases, there have been 16 accidents and 2 injuries reported, according to Automotive News. While NHTSA has been conducting an investigation since September 2011, no recall has been issued yet.
The inquiry's length was brought to light by an organization called the National Legal and Policy Center that alleges GM and NHTSA have known about the problem but are delaying a recall. It has sent a letter to CEO Mary Barra asking "to recall Saturn Ions for the model years 2004 through 2007 without further delay." The letter in question is available in full on the group's website.
