NHTSA Complaint #738154 — 1998 SATURN SW

ENGINE RUNS ROUGH AND STALLS. SOMETIMES SES LIGHT COMES ON, SOMETIMES NOT. VEHICLE WILL NOT START. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR TO THE DEALER 8 TIMES IN 2 YEARS AND THEY ALWAYS "FIX" SOMETHING--SOMETHING DIFFERENT EVERYTIME, BUT THE SYMPTOMS ARE THE SAME EVERY TIME. DEALER SAYS THERE IS "NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR" AND THAT THE PROBLEM IS DIFFERENT EVERY TIME I BRING IT IN. SEVERAL TIMES THERE HAVE BEEN NO CODES STORED TO INDICATE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS-THEREFORE, ACCORDING TO THE DEALER-"THERE IS NO PROBLEM". I DON'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!!! I AM TIRED OF TAKING THE CAR IN FOR THIS PROBLEM, IT HAS MOST RECENTLY BEEN IN ON OCT. 12, 2000 , DEC. 1, 2000 , AND DEC. 21, 2000---EVERYTIME I REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEMS AND ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, EVERY TIME IT IS A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THIS VEHICLE CAUSING THIS PROBLEM TO CONTINUE. I HAVE ALL THE REPAIR RECORDS.*AK
