1 Engine Head Gasket Failure problem

Failure Date: 11/05/2006

As the original owner of a 1996 Saturn Sc1 with 68,000 miles, this car has had four head gaskets replaced originating when this car was under a year old. In addition to these repeated catastrophic engine failures multiple replacements of alarm systems, radio, electrical issues and a defective front seat. This is what I purchased from Saturn and I have all documentation. The most recent head gasket failure occurred in November 06. As I was exasperated by Saturn and this vehicle I was sold, I sued the Saturn corporation in the richmond county small claims division for the cost of the fourth head gasket.
