Saturn S One Owner! 9,900 Original Miles!!! Auto Ac on 2040-cars
Towson, Maryland, United States
|
Hello. The Saturn is owned by a good friends grandmother who no longer can drive. Obviously illustrated by the true low mileage, this car was barely driven. I will describe the car the best I can however I would suggest asking any questions or coming to see the car prior to purchase.
First, as soon as I received the Saturn I changed the engine oil and filter, air filter, transmission fluid and transmission filter. The motor oil looked old but in tact. The transmission fluid looked fine. I have no records on her behalf of services rendered on the Saturn however it looks good throughout. When I arrived to look it over she had a sun shield up. The dash has no cracks or uneven wear. I have now put about 250 miles on the car and plan to put 500 over the weekend just to make sure there are no surprises for the buyer. There are no shakes on the steering wheel or when braking. The tires are in great shape with tons of tread and some dry rot on the outer edges. The suspension is tight and perfectly responsive as if the car was new. All features of the vehicle work like new. The autocheck shows a low score likely because in the State of Maryland, senior citizens are not required to have emissions performed on their vehicle however there are no check engine codes or leaks in the exhaust system. It works and sounds like new. |

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.
GM nixes fleet-only Chevy Captiva Sport
Thu, 06 Nov 2014Well, guys, it looks like Saturn is finally dead in the United States once and for all. According to Automotive News, Chevrolet has discontinued production of its fleet-only Captiva Sport - a rebadged Saturn Vue - after three years on the market. The very last US-spec Captiva Sport was built in Mexico in August. GM will still produce the vehicle for sale in the Mexican market, as well as for export.
GM initially offered the Captiva Sport for rental fleets as a way to free up capacity for the sightly larger Chevy Equinox and GMC Terrain crossovers, which, according to AN, had been in short supply. The Captiva Sport also did a nice job protecting the resale values of its other similar-sized CUVs because they didn't have to play in the fleet market. But with Chevrolet preparing to launch its subcompact Trax CUV in the US, the automaker will soon have a clear, three-tier crossover lineup without the Captiva Sport. The Trax fills out the bottom end, followed by the Equinox and the seven-passenger Traverse.
For now, renters seeking a taste of 'Classic GM' will have to whet their appetites with the fullsize Impala Limited.
VIDEO: Saturn's demise? We blame Jim Gaffigan*

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.
