Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Car began to make a loud whine. took it to my auto-tech and was placed on diagnostics. was determined that the bearing in the transmission was failing. this is at the 66,000 mile mark. let saturn know this and because i did not get my car serviced there at the dealership, there was not much they could do for me! what a rip! even following the scheduled maintenance on my own, there is not much they could do for me! i think there is something wrong with a car company when transmissions fail at this low of mileage. someone should check into their business practices!!!! *jb
