This is an great Saturn with decent mileage. It gets great gas mileage. The exterior is in great condition. Interior is in pretty good condition. It runs and drives, HOWEVER the engine will need work fairly soon. My mechanic said it has a cracked piston. It's not too expensive to do, but I just don't want to deal with it. The turn signal markers on the front bumper are cracked but I have new ones coming and will be replaced by the end of the auction.
The windshield does have a crack in it. No water leaks, nor does it affect the visability while driving.
The sunroof works great with no leaks. The 5 speed transmission shifts as it should with no issues or complications.
Someone with a little knowledge of mechanics can fix it no problem or even swap a new 1.9 engine in and have a ton of life left with this vehicle.
This car is being sold 'as-is' with no warranty expressed or implied.
My suggestion is to have this car towed. I've driven it a little, it will run and drive, i just don't recommend driving long distances.
I feel that I have described this car to the best of my knowledge. Please feel free to ask questions in case I did miss anything.

Saturn Vue ignition issue was discussed three times before recall, new documents reveal
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Despite the tens of millions of recalled vehicles this year, it's somewhat rare that we get a glimpse into what goes into deciding when to conduct one of these safety campaigns. New documents published by General Motors and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are giving us an interesting opportunity to see how the sausage is made and show the number of meetings it takes to declare a recall.
In early August, GM added about another 269,000 vehicles to its 2014 recall tally in the US when it announced a slew of new safety campaigns. Among them was a fix for the 2002-2004 Saturn Vue that covered 202,155 of them in the US. The problem was that the key could be removed from the ignition even when it wasn't in the "OFF" position, and that had caused two crashes and one injury, according to the automaker.
Where we start to see behind the veil is in the defect notice freshly released by NHTSA. It shows that GM began investigating more widely for ignition switches in April, shortly after the company expanded its ignition switch recall to a variety of Saturn products, among others, according to Automotive News. The automaker found 152 reports in the 2002-2004 Vue of vehicles rolling away or the key being removed out of a total population of 215,243 units worldwide.
GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
Clever video selling Saturn Ion "sex machine" will catch your eye
