Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Rear lights kept going out - saturn dealer said the electrical system had been butt-spliced. since only saturn worked on the vehicle, this was unexplainable. it seems, however, my car is not the only one with this problem. apparently, the butt-splicing is being done by saturn and being blamed on the consumer -- and charged to the consumer. i discovered this problem after being stopped by the police, twice.*ak
