| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Premature timing chain failure on my 2002 saturn l200. i have a 2002 saturn l200 with 54000 miles on it and the timing chain went out this morning with no warning. i was driving to work this morning on the express way when, without any warning, the engine stalled. i thought i was going to get hit by the semi behind me. fortunately he was able to slow down and avoid me as i pulled off the road. i had a mechanic check the car out and he said it was the timing chain. i was informed that the engine might have to be replaced. after reading a number of other people with the same problem, i decided to file this complaint. when will something be done about this problem? saturn should be forced to recall these cars and fix the problem at there own expense. does someone have to die before something is done about this problem? *tr |
