I purchased this auto from my neighbor who was in the military so that my son had a car for college. My son had other ideas of what he should be driving so we have decided to let this car go after dropping a thousand or so for an extensive tune-up. We have replaced the front lights that were 800$$ which included the lenses and bulbs... New brackets for mufflers...All the sensors for engine were replaced during the tune up and their are no mechanical issues that we are away of.
The car gets 30 miles to the gallon and drives smoothly with no noises or wind sounds....
The interior is like new with no cracks in dash and the doors and seats have no rips and are clean. We are a no smoking family and the military man
that we bought it from was also smoke free......Hence their are no strange smells in the car.
Tires have approx. 75% tread left and they are properly balanced so that the car drives straight and true..... no pulling to left or right....
NOW for the bad:
The pictures show the excellent condition of the car however you can see by the pics that the car was in a hail storm and caused multiple imperfections in the paint.
Because the Saturn is made from a composite material and can be hit with a bat and not dent, the car is not dented and or rusty....... The only thing not correct with this car is the chipped paint that we touched up with matching paint......We have CLEAR title on this vehicle in hand and it is not salvaged.
I have the car for sale locally and reserve the right to end this auction early if the car sells locally.......
There are no warranties either written or implied....... I can help with shipping although cost is the buyers responsibility..... If you have any further questions please email me or feel free to call me if you would like to look at and drive the car........ MY number is 609-290-7671 and my name is Bob.
This car has been my daily driver since May and i will continue to use it until sold so the mileage may increase by around a 100 miles.

Honda wins Commercial of the Decade, but not for the ad you think [w/VIDEO]
Fri, 18 Dec 2009Honda's Commercial of the Decade: "Grrr" - Click above to watch video
The mad men at Adweek recently voted for the Commercial of the Decade (Super Bowl commercials not included) and Honda took top honors over memorable ads from the last ten years by companies like Nike, Budweiser and Sony. That's not a big surprise considering Honda often puts a huge amount of effort into its on-air spots. However, the Japanese automaker didn't win for the commercial you might have expected: "Cog." Though Honda's famous commercial that breaks down a European Accord Tourer into a Rube Goldberg-esque machine was also a finalist, it was beaten by another Honda commercial called "Grrr" that's narrated by Garrison Keillor of all people. You've probably never seen it, but you can after the jump.
Volkswagen also made the list of finalists, but the particular ad chosen out of all the comical VW ads we've seen was unexpected as well. Most surprising carmaker with a commercial in the finals: Saturn. Who knew...
GM recalling another 2.7 million vehicles in five separate campaigns
Thu, 15 May 2014The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles.
The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles - some of them the same models - but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago.
The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents.
Saturn Ion steering probe closed by NHTSA
Tue, 22 Apr 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has closed its investigation into faulty electric power steering motors affecting 334,728 Saturn Ions from 2004-2007, because General Motors has issued a recall for them. The group's research found that the part failed at a high rate in the vehicles.
GM recalled over 1.3 million vehicles a few weeks ago, including the Ion, because the power steering could suddenly fail. If broken, the cars could still turn, but it took greater effort. The automaker is also covering 96,324 2003 Ions with a lifetime warranty for their motors, but it's not immediately replacing them.
NHTSA opened its investigation into the motors in September 2011, and it found 4,787 complaints and 30,560 warranty claims that showed failure for the Ion alone. It estimated a complaint rate of 14.3 incidents per 1,000 vehicles and warranty claim rate of 9.1 percent. The investigation also found evidence of 12 crashes caused by loss of steering, two of which resulted in injuries.
