Saturn seems to have a better image than a lot of other mainstream brands. see full Saturn AURA review |

Saturn has a reputation for not so good cards, but it has changed. I would highly recommend an Aura and will be looking at a Vue or Outlook to replace our current SUV when that time comes. see full Saturn AURA review |

GM on verge of bankruptcy. Saturn may be eliminated. see full Saturn AURA review |

I have owned GM & Honda’s, My experience with the long term reliability of the Honda’s were impressive. I can’t say the same for GM. The General now says this car’s quality is up there with the best of them, only time will tell. see full Saturn AURA review |

Overall, GM does not have as good a reputation as Honda or Toyota in terms of reliability, which is a major factor in my purchase decisions. I was largely willing to discount that concern on this purchase. see full Saturn AURA review |

Given the current Dieselgate situation and how it is being handled both by VW and CARB/EPA, not likely to buy another VW. Most likely switch to another brand as long as they sell diesel vehicles. see full Volkswagen Touareg review |
