Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING OUR 2001 SATURN L200 TO WORK. WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE CAR JUST SHUT COMPLETELY OFF SO HE HAD TO COST OVER FOUR LANES TO GET OFF OF THE EXIT RAMP. HE HAD IT TOWED TO THE AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR PLACE WE USE AND OF COURSE THE TIMING CHAIN BROKE. THE ESTIMATE FOR JUST THAT IS $900 NOT EVEN INCLUDING IF THE VALVES OR ANYTHING ELSE IS BROKE. I HAVE RESEARCHED ABOUT THIS AND I HAVE READ ABOUT THE RECALL ON THEM BUT OF COURSE MY CAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. THE SAME THING THAT HAPPENED TO EVERYONE ELSE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL IS THE SAME EXACT THING THAT HAPPENED TO ME. I HAVE HAD NO HELP WITH SATURN ON THIS ISSUE. I HAD JUST BOUGHT THE CAR NOT EVEN A MONTH BEFORE IT BROKE DOWN. *TR
