 The vehicle has major wind noise...you can not even hear the radio or conversations in the vehicle due to this noise. the car also has a rattling coming from the driver and passenger side of the car, we can not identify the source. the vehicle also rolls back on a hill when in drive. the brakes also squeal and the dealership says they are fine, but we do not believe they are. these problems have been going on since may 2005 and till now (1/18/06) saturn has not fixed any of them. *jb
