| Saturn S-Series Reliability And Durability: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 100-horsepower 1.9L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Was using or leaking oil(qt/500miles) from a stuck ring when I got it (130K)but was able to eventually get it unstuck with tips from satrunfans forum and now uses qt/1500 at (195K)Easy and cheap repairs in general. full 2002 Saturn S-Series review |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 100-horsepower 1.9L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The car is simple and reliable. When things do go wrong, parts are usually cheap and easy to replace. full 2002 Saturn S-Series review |
| 2000 | 4dr Coupe 100-horsepower 1.9L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I love my sc1 and decided after having it for 10 years I would buy another Saturn to keep it company. My sc1 has been very reliable and if there were any issues (brakes, alternator, etc.) it was relatively inexpensive to have fixed. At 13 yrs old with 120,000 miles under its belt, it has been the best car and purchase I ever made. I hope my 08 Vue redline can live up to the expectations. full 2000 Saturn S-Series review |

| 2002 | 4dr Coupe 124-horsepower 1.9L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Not sure if this is the right category for this but - the one thing that I really disliked about my old Saturn is access to the oil filter. Very difficult for a do-it-yourself person compared to other cars I have owned. This Saturn is no different as it has the same drivetrain. full 2002 Saturn S-Series review |
