Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: York pa> saturn has patched up my 2003 vue by replacing valves, sensors etc. which they well know will not fix the problem. after regular preventable maintenance, 2003 saturn vue has continuously experienced transmission problems from 10,000 point on. vehicle while just traveling down a road at 30-40 mph), does not shift properly into higher gear , makes loud grinding noises while turning and accelerating and otherwise fails to operate properly transmission was looked at by dealer several times avoiding the issue of transmission replacement. problems continue after servicing. have read extensive reports and complaints involving saturn vue vt1 transmission. saturn needs to have a recall - it's consumers can't afford all of these repairs for what is clearly a faulty transmission that has been discontinued! next step is class action suit by owners!!!!!!!!!! think about all of these unhappy people when sales get tough saturn??? all i ask is for gm/saturn to replace my faulty drive train (engine and transmission) free of all labor and parts with the new type drive train that is in the new 2007-08 vue !!! its that simple saturn! and until this happens this transmittal will continue on to websites, public posts, flyers, in front of saturn dealers etc. etc... ps. i have copied the consumer product safety, the government recall bureau, astm, and other sites to let them know of this hazard/safety problem. *tr
