Manual Transmission problem #1

Transmission shift cable, just broke while driving. After doing some research, I found this is a very common problem with the Saturn Sc2. The plastic ball that holds the cable in the shift lever commonly breaks. Instead of selling a device to repair the cable, the require you to buy the entire cable that costs around $500. 00.

Transmission Failure problem #2

The transmission failed prematurely and the consumer is requesting replacement be compensated, the manufacturer would not allow for another mechanic to perform the replacement other than a Saturn dealership or the warranty would not be warranted, consumer requesting reimbursement for warranty repair of the transmission.

Power Train problem #3

Speedometer/tachometer failed. Nlm.
