| Purchased the car used with approx 24000 miles. seemed fishy at first but dealership insured me that everything was okay. oil light came on after only a week from purchase. did not look like dealership serviced engine. i called the dealership and informed them of the oil light. they never told me that there is a problem and to bring it in, they just brushed it off as a short. when questioning the dealership about the servicing of the car, they replied you should never assume anything. now here i am with a car that has only (supposedly) 33000 miles on it and the engine is no good. harold motors laughs in our face when i told them about the engine. they will not help us in any way nor will saturn. for a car with only 33000 miles on it, i cannot see it breaking, especially the engine which saturn brags about in every commercial. we are at a standstill trying to contact saturn to alleviate this problem. with the engine breaking with only 33000 miles on it, it is defective. saturn has defective engines on their sl1 models in 1996, so this matter needs to be looked into. the quote for a new engine is 3400.00 which we should not have to pay . thank you. *ak | |||
