NHTSA Complaint #758688 — 1995 SATURN SL

CAR WAS USING OIL, BUT WAS NOT LEAKING OR BURNING IT. CAR THEN STARTED OVERHEATING, AND I TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE STATION I ALWAYS USE. WHEN CHANGING ANTI FREEZE FOR OVERHEATING PROBLEM, FOUND OIL IN THE ANTI- FREEZE. THIS LED TO ENGINE HEAD PROBLEMS. AND HEAD WAS SENT OUT TO BE REPAIRED AND REINSTALLED. DROVE CAR FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND IT STARTED USING ANTI- FREEZE AGAIN. THIS TIME WHEN THE HEAD WAS PULLED OFF, IT WAS FOUND TO HAVE A CRACK IN IT AND NOW I HAVE TO BUY A NEW HEAD. I HAVE SPENT ABOUT $1,800.00 SO FAR AND HOPE I DIN'T HAVE TO SPEND MORE. MY MECHANIS CALLED THE SATURN MECHANIC IN ALBANY N.Y. AND HE SAID THIS WAS COMMON WITH 1995 SATURN SL-1S. I ALSO LOOKED IT UP ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND IT TO BE A BIG PROBLEM WITH CONSUMERS OF THIS YEAR CAR. ARE YOU PEOPLE GOING TO DO ANY THING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I THINK THE COMSUMERS OF THESE JUNK CARS ARE GETTING THE SHAFT FROM YOU PEOPLE, AND YOU SHOULD BE REINBERSING ALL OF US FOR THESE PROBLEMS THAT YOUR ENGINES ARE CAUSING. RIGHT?.*AK
