I have an 08 Saturn Outlook that will roll back while in drive on any kind of incline. My wife has almost had a few accidents in the vehicle because of this, but Saturn refuses to fix the problem. They say it is just the way the vehicle works and that is it. They also told me that there is no recall yet so they can not help me. Something seems very wrong to me, my families lives are in danger in this vehicle but Saturn does not care because enough people have not complained?.
