Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: In summer of 2002, i paid over $1500 to have a head gasket repaired on my saturn. last thursday, the car was having the same issues and it was determined that it has a cracked engine cylinder. this is an item on a tsb issued from saturn, i realized today. now i am facing over $2000 to have the cylinder replaced, putting my total cost for repairs over $3700 on an issue that saturn has been aware of for some time, yet never notified its customers.
