Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Car wouldn't start whenever temp got below 35 degrees. this happened twice.........the second time i took the car to the dealer and they tell me the starter switch needed replaced! this on a car that has fewer than 60k on it. they also had to reprogram the bcm. apparently, i'm one of 100's that has had this problem! saturn dealer was very nice about the whole thing............but is this not a safety hazard if the temp is really frigid and your car needs to start to keep warm?? *nm
