| I purchased a 2007 saturn vue in 2009. i was never told or made aware that the tie rod attached to the two front tires was almost broken. one day driving very locally, it broke and was hanging there til i got home. i took it to the mechanic and he removed it telling me i had to replace it which will cost $323. i was also told by my insurance company this vehicle was in two accidents prior to my purchasing it but i was never told of that either. | |||

| Driving ~20mph on dirt road for 7 miles when smelled hot oil. determined that both shocks had blown out their grease and there was a significant amount of smoke coming out of both rear shocks. shocks stopped smoking within 30 minutes of letting car set, shocks are no longer functional. wondering if it would have caught fire if we hadn't stopped immediately. | |||
