Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 SATURN L300 I BOUGHT THE CAR 5 MONTHS AGO 2 WEEKS AFTER THE PURCHASE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP MECHANIC WHICH IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH SATURN AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOTHING (I THINK PARTIALLY IN PART BECAUSE I AM A FEMALE) BY THE WAY I WAS GIVEN A 2 WEEK WARRANTY LOL! ABOUT A MONTH OR TWO AGO I NOTICED THAT I WOULD GO TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULD BE DEAD. LATER I REALIZED MY LIGHTS WERE STAYING ON AFTER I TURNED THEM OFF. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT RETURNS SO I TAKE IT TO AUTOZONE TO BE DIAGNOSED ONLY TO FIND OUT I HAD 18 CODES! FOR A LITTLE OVER A MONTH NOW I HAVE HAD TO JUMP MY CAR WITH EACH START FEARING I WILL CAUSE FURTHER DAMAGE AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW LAST NIGHT I JUMP MY CAR AND KNOW THE BATTERY AND ABC BREAK LIGHT APPEARS CAUSING MY CAR TO LOSE POWER WHILE IN TRAFFIC AND FOR THE LIGHTS THAT DO NOT WANT TO CEASE TO FLASH ON AND OFF AT INCOMING MOTORISTS WITH MY BRIGHTS I REALLY DON'T WANT TO CAUSE SOMEONE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO SATURN FAULTY CARS AND ITS SYSTEM. NUMEROUS WEBSITES I'VE VISITED CONSULTING THIS ISSUE HAVE MANY OTHER PURCHASERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND MUTUAL COMPLAINT WITH THE TARDINESS OF SATURNS ACTION TO RESPOND PROMPTLY AND EFFECTIVELY. I AM TRULY OUTRAGEOUS AT THIS MATTER AND TO CONTINUE TO MAKE PAYMENTS ON THIS POORLY STRUCTURED VEHICLE. *TR
