Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: For the 2nd time in two years i have had to replace the engine in my 2002 l series saturn due to a timing chain failure. i understand that this is a common problem with this model. the car just stops running in the middle of the road without any warning and will not restart. the engine then needs to be replaced and is a major expense.($3000 to $5000) i researched this problem on carsurvey.com and found many other owners with the same problem thank you. *jb
