Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A USED 2001 SATURN L300 WITH 34000 MILES ON IT IN GOOD CONDITION. THIS CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE FROM DAY ONE. THE BIGGEST PROBLEM THAT I HAVE HAD IS FAILURE TO START. RIGHT NOW MY CAR IS IN THE SHOP AT THE SATURN DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND THEY ARE GOING TO REPLACE THE CRANK SENSOR. THEY SAY THIS IS THE REASON WHY IT IS NOT STARTING. LAST TIME THEY FIXED MY CAR IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE SECURITY SYSTEM. I'M TIRED OF ALL THE GAMES. MY CAR HAS HAD A PROBLEM STARTING OFF AND ON THE DAY I BOUGHT IT AND IT SEEMS TO BE A DIFFERENT EXCUSE EVERY TIME. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT NOT JUST I BUT MANY MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME YEAR/MAKE/MODEL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. HOW STRANGE! THERE SHOULD DEFINITELY BE A RECALL ON THIS OR AT LEAST AN INVESTIGATION, BUT I HAVE YET TO FIND IT ON THE WEB. $200 I MUST NOW PAY TO 'HOPEFULLY' FIX THIS PROBLEM. *NM
