Up for sale is my wife's 2004 all-wheel drive Saturn Vue.  She is the 2nd owner and purchased it from a Saturn dealer in 2008.  The reason we are selling is because we bought a boat and need an SUV capable of pulling it.  It has a clear MN title and has never been in any major accidents.

The good:

  • Only 124,500 miles.
  • All wheel drive works great in the snow.
  • This car is very reliable and runs great; it is currently her daily driver.
  • 4 new tires last year and alignment.
  • Transmission flush last year.
  • It has always had regular oil changes and maintenance.
  • Does not leak any fluids or burn any oil.
  • No rust.
  • Runs great!

Why it is so cheap:

  • Transmission occasionally neutralizes (shifts into neutral on it's own) in stop and go conditions.  When it does this it immediately shifts back into gear so it has never left us stranded, it is just occasionally annoying.
  • ABS light is on.
  • Check coolant level light is on (has been stuck on for several years, coolant level and temp has always been fine).
  • There is some moderate hail damage on the hood as well as some scratches here and there as seen in the pictures.
  • The interior does not have any rips or tears but the carpet could use a good cleaning. There are one or two small cigarette burns in the carpet from the previous owner.

As listed above, this car is not perfect and the starting bid price reflects that.  It is still a good reliable SUV and is ready to be driven anywhere. 

Please feel free to call me at 651-338-3834 with questions.  $200 non-refundable deposit through Paypal is required at auction close; the rest can be paid either cash in person or through paypal prior to the Vue leaving my house.

VIDEO: Saturn's demise? We blame Jim Gaffigan*

Fri, 02 Oct 2009


Click above to view the video after the jump
When the deal to sell Saturn to Penske Automotive fell through, there were likely a lot of surprised people at General Motors' Detroit, MI headquarters. Penske released a statement saying that the reason the deal fell through after months of good faith negotiations was that a suitable post-GM supply of vehicles could not be found. However, after reacquainting ourselves with over eight minutes of outtakes from Jim Gaffigan's old Saturn commercial, we're thinking the comedic pitchman is to blame.

Saturn Ion steering probe closed by NHTSA

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has closed its investigation into faulty electric power steering motors affecting 334,728 Saturn Ions from 2004-2007, because General Motors has issued a recall for them. The group's research found that the part failed at a high rate in the vehicles.
GM recalled over 1.3 million vehicles a few weeks ago, including the Ion, because the power steering could suddenly fail. If broken, the cars could still turn, but it took greater effort. The automaker is also covering 96,324 2003 Ions with a lifetime warranty for their motors, but it's not immediately replacing them.
NHTSA opened its investigation into the motors in September 2011, and it found 4,787 complaints and 30,560 warranty claims that showed failure for the Ion alone. It estimated a complaint rate of 14.3 incidents per 1,000 vehicles and warranty claim rate of 9.1 percent. The investigation also found evidence of 12 crashes caused by loss of steering, two of which resulted in injuries.
