One problem related to trunk wiring has been reported for the 1997 Saturn SC. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I was driving my 1997 Sc Saturn north bound FL turnpike when the road felt really bumpy and suddenly the engine electrical (cables/wires)components flew & splash against the windshield blocking my view, "OH my god" I immediately eage to the left shoulder, got out of the vehicle to assess the situation, contacted geico road service. I was shocked to see that one of the lemans tire (right passenger side) tread had completely peeled & blown off. Apparently, as the tire began to fail the steel belts from the tire destroyed the inner fender, the outer fender and ripped out the main wiring harness that provided power to all electrical components inside the passenger compartment such as door locks, windows etc. It appears that the placment of this wiring harness over the front wheel should have been through the firewall and not over a wheel and with no protection.
