2001 Saturn L300 Sedan 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
United States
|
This car was my daily driver until the timing belt slipped and I loved this car. It drove very nicely and it has heated leather seats, power moon roof, CD/cassette/AM/FM, cold A/C and strong heat to make the commute easier, also aluminum wheels. There are many more options as listed above. The car has every option that was available for a 2001 Saturn L300 plus aftermarket alarm system and two key fobs to keep it safe from thieves. This car also has remote start. I drove it 80 miles per day and it got better than 20 MPG. The V6 was fast on the highway. One week before the timing belt slipped, I had new brake rotors, calipers and pads installed in preparation for winter. The car has been owned by a non-smoker and it is cleaner than most 2001 cars and as clean as many newer cars. Two of the tires are new. The dealer tells me that the engine needs valve work due to timing belt slippage and engine interference. This would be a good car for a DIY mechanic or if you have a newer engine to put in this car, it would make a very nice daily driver. I simply do not have the facilities or funds to do the work. This car is very clean inside and out as detailed photos will attest. I can send lots of detailed photos upon request. CarFax available upon request. Bid with confidence and be prepared to fix the engine. Then you will have a very nice daily driver. Buyer must pick up car from Southfield, Michigan within 5 days of auction close. Car can not be driven in present condition and must be towed. |

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
VIDEO: Saturn's demise? We blame Jim Gaffigan*

When the deal to sell Saturn to Penske Automotive fell through, there were likely a lot of surprised people at General Motors' Detroit, MI headquarters. Penske released a statement saying that the reason the deal fell through after months of good faith negotiations was that a suitable post-GM supply of vehicles could not be found. However, after reacquainting ourselves with over eight minutes of outtakes from Jim Gaffigan's old Saturn commercial, we're thinking the comedic pitchman is to blame.
Report: Saturn owners offered $2,000 to stick with GM products
Mon, 15 Feb 2010After its decision to euthanize Oldsmobile, General Motors knows exactly what happens when it mothballs one of its brands: GM loses market share to the competition. The General is trying to stop history from repeating itself with Saturn customers by offering $2,000 on the hood of every car and crossover donning the ringed planet badge. Automotive News says the offer actually started on February 2 and runs until the end of March. To be eligible for the $2,000 bounty Saturn owners must have leased or purchased their Saturn at least six months ago. Interestingly, those owners don't even have to turn in their Saturn to be eligible for the cash.
AN reports that research company R.L. Polk says even before Saturn went on the endangered species list, it lagged other GM nameplates in the all-important aspect of customer retention. The mass exodus from Saturn loyalty predictably intensified at the end of 2008 as customers became anxious over the future of the brand. For its part, GM insists that all Saturn warranties will be upheld and customers looking for service can still go to a GMC, Chevy, Buick or Cadillac dealership.
