I WAS DRIVING UP A SMALL INCLINE, PREPARING TO STOP FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT, ENGINE BEGAN TO RACE, I COULD NOT STOP, BRAKES WERE FINE BUT ENGINE WAS RACING. I HAD TO PUT CAR IN PARK, CHECKED FOR BLOCKAGE WITH FLOOR MAT, THERE WAS NOT ANY. PUT 4 -WAY BLINKERS ON, SHUT CAR OFF. RESTARTED CAR AND IT WAS FINE. HAPPENED AGAIN ON FEB. 22ND THIS TIME TRIED 4 TIMES SHUTTING DOWN AND STILL RACED. HAD TO PARK CAR, UPON RETURNING 2 HOURS LATER CAR WAS FINE. I HAVE ALSO HAD TROUBLE STARTING CAR, STARTED IN JUNE 2014, IF IGNITION DID NOT ENGAGE WHEN KEY WAS TURNED CAR HAD TO SIT FOR 1/2 HOUR BEFORE STARTING. *JS

My vehicle is leaking fuel from the fuel pump. I can see the fuel collecting on the side of the fuel tank from the top of the tank where the fuel pump is located. This issue has been releasing gas fumes around my car and occasionally in the cabin. This not only makes my car invalid for emissions testing in many states across the country, it also poses a risk to the overall safety of the vehicle. This issue is extremely common on these cars, I have seen many reports on Saturn forums talking about the issue and just how dangerous / expensive it has been for them to deal with. Due to the way GM has made this car, you cannot replace this part without dropping the exhaust and fuel tank.

Our 2004 Saturn L300 developed a fuel leak at the fuel pump (cracked) which is not normal. There is a strong fuel smell while driving and after the vehicle is parked. We are afraid that the fuel leak could cause a fire. The fuel pump has been inspected by an independent mechanic. There’s an error code that says that there’s a leak in the fuel system. I looked online and it seems that a lot of people are experiencing the same problem with this car. Other cars of the same manufacturer (General Motors) have been recalled for the same problem.

HOOKED UP A OBD SCANNER TO CAR. 8 CODES APPEARED. BCM/ECM MALFUNCTION.(4 CODES OF THIS), CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR (2 CODES OF THIS), ENGINE RUNNING TOO RICH (2 CODES OF THIS). I HAVE READ MANY CASES ONLINE THROUGH FORUMS, AND THIS SEEMS TOO BE A BIG PROBLEM. *TR

MY TRUNK FILLS WITH WATER IF I GO THROUGH A CAR WASH. I DIDN'T NOTICE FOR A WHILE BECAUSE I RARELY USE THE TRUNK. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS DUE TO BROKEN SEALS, IT WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY AND WOULD COST ABOUT 300.00 DOLLARS. I DON'T HAVE 300.00 DOLLARS. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN A ACCIDENT SO THERE SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM WITH THE SEALS UNDER IT. *TR

WE HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE DOORS SLAMMING US ALMOST FROM THE DAY WE GOT THE CAR. IT IS AN LW 300.1 2004 SATURN WAGON. MY SMALL GRANDDAUGHTER, AND A PASSENGER HAVE BEEN HIT BY THE DOOR. MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN HIT MANY TIMES ON THE BACK, ARM, AND LEGS. THE DOORS HAVE TWO STOP POSITIONS. IT IS NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE TO OPEN THE DOOR TO ITS WIDEST POSITION, AND THE OTHER POSITION DOES NOT PROVIDE ENOUGH ROOM TO ENTER AND LEAVE COMFORTABLY. THEREFORE, IF THE DOOR IS NOT PUT IN ONE OF THE TWO STOP POSITIONS, IT SLAMS IMMEDIATELY INTO THE PERSON. WE HAVE FELT PAIN AND BRUISING. WE FEEL LUCKY THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NO SERIOUS INJURIES, BUT THAT COULD OCCUR THE NEXT TIME THE DOOR "ATTACKS". WE HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES BUT THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. BOTH THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER CLAIM THAT THE CAR IS PERFORMING AS IT WAS DESIGNED TO DO. THAT IS THE PROBLEM -- POOR DESIGN. OUR OTHER CARS HAVE AND DO STAY OPEN WHEREVER WE OPEN THEM. *TR

INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT THE HEADLIGHTS AND DASHBOARD LIGHTSBLINK ON AND OFF. THE LIGHTS WOULD STAY OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN COME BACK ON AGAIN. THE DEALER CLAIMED THAT THIS WAS PERFECTLY NORMAL. THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED FOUR TIMES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. *AK THE CONSUMER INDICATED THA THE VEHICLKE ALSO LOST POWER WHILE DRIVNG. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINED THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. *NM

WE HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED AN 04 L300 AND HAVE STATED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE HEADLIGHTS AND DASH LIGHTS. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE HEADLIGHTS AND DASH LIGHTS HAVE GONE OFF AND COME BACK ON. ON ONE SUCH OCCASSION, A TRACTOR TRAILER PULLED OVER ON US THINKING WE HAD NOTIFIED HIM TO DO SO. IT WAS JUST BY THE GRACE OF GOD WE WERE NOT CRUSHED. LATER THAT SAME NIGHT, A POLICE OFFICER PULLED US OVER WANTING TO KNOW WHY WE WERE BLINKING OUR HEAD LIGHTS AT HIM. WE EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM AND WERE TOLD THAT HE COULD RIGHT US A TICKET BUT WOULD NOT THIS TIME AND TO GET THE PROBLEMS CORRECTED. AFTER TAKING THIS ISSUE TO OUR SATURN DEALERSHIP, WE WERE TOLD THAT ACCORDING TO A MEMO DATED FEBRUARY 2004 THAT "THIS IS NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC" FOR THIS VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP AND CORP. HAVE REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING TO ASSIST WITH CORRECTING THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR IS ONLY 3 MONTHS OLD AND STILL UNDER WARRANTY BUT THEY SUGGESTED THAT WE PAY $450 FOR A NEW ALTERNATOR AND PURCHASE ANOTHER EXTENDED BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. ALL STATING THAT THIS MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS GOING TO RESULT IN SOMEONES DEATH IF NOT CORRECTED. WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO GET THIS HANDLED? PLEASE ADVISE WITH ASSISTANCE IN PURSUING A RECALL OR HAVING MY CAR DECLARED A LEMON.*AK

MY WIFE AND I OWN A 2004 SATURN L300. MY WIFE IS THE PRIMARY DRIVER AND SHE REPORTED SEEING A WISP OF SMOKE COMING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN. WE TOOK IT TO THE SATURN DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL SHORT. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER MY WIFE REPORTED THE SAME WISP OF SMOKE. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM REPAIR IT AGAIN. THE SECOND TIME THEY REPAIRED IT, THE TURN SIGNAL WOULD NOT TURN OFF WHEN THE WHEEL WAS TURNED. ALSO, THE WISP OF SMOKE IS BACK AGAIN. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD TIME INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I DON'T WANT IT TO START A FIRE WHILE IT IS BEING DRIVEN. THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE OTHER ISSUES INCLUDING THE POWER STEERING RACK FAILING, THE WATER PUMP FAILING, AND THE PLENUM FAILING. THE CAR ONLY HAS 46,000 MILES ON IT AND MY WIFE HAS PUT ABOUT 13,000 IN 27 MONTHS. *TR

A YEAR AGO, A GRINDING NOISE CAME FROM THE STEERING WHEN TURNING AT LOW SPEEDS. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME, WHILE I WAS MAKING THE APPOINTMENT, THAT IT WAS THE STEERING SHAFT. *JB

NOTICED LOUD RUMBLING SOUND FROM TIRES. HAD CAR IN FOR OIL, TIRE ROTATION AND BALANCE AND WAS TOLD THE TIRES ON THE REAR ARE WEARING IN A WAVY MANNER. WAS TOLD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL. COULD FEEL WAVES ON TIRES WHEN FELT WITH HAND. *JB

I HAVE A 2004 SATURN L300. AROUND 34,000 I NOTICED NOISES COMING FROM MY TIRES. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER, WHICH IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND FOUR NEW TIRES. THIS WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE FACTORY BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY AND WOULD COST ME OVER 700.00. I NEVER HAD TO GET A FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT THIS EARLY ON A CAR AND I TAKE CAR OF MY CARS. I THINK THIS IS INSANE, I CALLED SATURN IN TENNESSEE COMPLAINED, THEY STATED THAT TIRES AND ALIGNMENTS ARE PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE. WELL HOW ABOUT THAT. I EVEN PAID THE EXTRA FEES, INCLUDED IN MY PAYMENTS TO COVER OIL CHANGES AND ALIGNMENTS. IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM, THEY SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT IT WHEN THE CAR WAS BEING SERVICED. ANYWAY, WHILE DOING RESEARCH ONLINE, THERE ARE OTHER CASES OF THIS OUT THERE, LOTS OF THEM. CHECK OUT WWW.SATURNFANS.COM, WWW.AUTOMOTIVEFORUMS.COM AND EVEN THIS SITE, WWW.NHTSA.DOT.GOV. SO MUCH FOR PEOPLE FIRST. I PLAN TO POST THIS INFORMATION ON OTHER FORUMS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. [email protected] *JB

I OWN A 2004 SATURN L300 SEDAN. ON OCTOBER 25, 2007, I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE PASSING LANE GOING ABOUT 65 TO 70 MPH AND THE CAR STALLS AND THE GAS PEDAL SHOWS NO RESPONSE. THE CAR ENGINE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON ALONG WITH THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT AND LOSS OF POWER LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD. I HAD TO CROSSOVER A LANE AND PULL THE CAR OVER. WHILE PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK THE CAR SHAKES. I TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND START THE CAR AGAIN AND I AM ABLE TO GO BUT THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY HARD. THERE WERE NO PRECURSOR SIGNS THAT THE CAR WAS HAVING PROBLEMS. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE SATURN DEALERSHIP, AND THEY EXPRESSED THAT CODE P0606 SHOWED UP AND THAT THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM/PCM) BECAUSE IT WAS FAULTY. ON JANUARY 31, 2008, I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THE CAR STALLED AGAIN WHILE I WAS IN THE PASSING LANE. I TOOK THE CAR TO AN AUTO PARTS STORE SO THAT THEY COULD GET A QUICK SCAN ON THE COMPUTER. AGAIN THE CODE P0606 SHOWS UP. I HAD THE GENTLEMAN PRINT ME OUT A COPY OF THE CODE, FOR MY OWN RECORD. THE RECEIPT STATED THAT THE PROBABLE CAUSE FOR THE PROBLEM IS A FAILED ECM. SO I RETURN TO THE SATURN DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM CHECK UP ON THE PROBLEM. LATER THAT DAY, THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND THEN WHEN I SHOWED THEM THAT I HAD THE CODES READ JUST BEFORE I CAME IN, THEY HAD TOLD ME THAT "YES , THAT CODE CAME UP, BUT THAT WAS AN OLD CODE FROM BEFORE, SO WE JUST ERASED IT". EVEN THOUGH I HAD PROOF THAT IT WAS A NEW CODE, THEY IGNORED MY CONCERNS. ON FEBRUARY 12, 2008, JUST 12 DAYS AFTER BEING IN THE SHOP, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR STALLS WHILE I AM IN TRAFFIC GOING ABOUT 65 MPH. I AGAIN GO TO THE AUTO STORE TO OBTAIN THE RECEIPTS OF WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. THE SAME CODE COMES UP AGAIN P0606 (ECM/PCM FAULT). I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE DECIDE TO REPLACE TO MASS AIR SENSOR BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THEY THINK IS WRONG WITH IT. *TR

2004 VUE PURCHASED NEW, LATE 2004; CURRENTLY HAS ONLY 16,000 MILES, SERVICED BY THE DEALER. FOR THE PAST EST OF 2000 MILES IT WILL DEVOID ITSELF OF POWER WHILE MAKING TURNS AND GOING FORWARD. IT WILL NOT BUCK, BUT REDUCE THE POWER. KEEP ROLLING AND THEN VERY GRADUALLY PICK UP SPEED. DEALER INFORMED AT LAST OIL CHANGE, I WAS TOLD TO BRING IT IN FOR A DAY TO BE CHECKED. DEALER WILL BE CONTACTED FOR LONER CAR, I CANNOT SIT AND WAIT ALL DAY. CAR IS NECESSARY FOR TRANSPORTATION FOR WIFE WHO WORKS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD ANYTIME THE CAR IS MOVING FORWARD. *NM

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 SATURN L300. THE TIRES WERE WORN ON THE INSIDES AND WERE REPLACED THREE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WOULD RIDE AS NORMAL AND THE FAILURE WAS ONLY VISIBLY NOTICED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY THE REAR SPRINGS AND BOLT KIT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 22,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

I CAN NOT GET A REPLACEMENT PART FOR MY 2004 SATURN WAGON. THE TAIL LIGHT IS BROKEN, GM SAID THE SUPPLIER QUITE MAKING THE PART. THE CAR IS NOT LEGAL TO DRIVE WITH A BROKEN TAIL LIGHT. *TR THANK YOU ROBERT EMANUEL
