1 Engine Exhaust System problem of the 2001 Saturn SC2

Failure Date: 10/30/2004

2001 Saturn Sc2 bought 2/04 20,000 orginal miles . . . . . . . Suporting documents state the car was sitting and not driven prior to purchasing. As of oct 2004 and 30,000 miles there has been a leak in exhaust, checked with Saturn dealer and was told I needed a new resonator and pipe dealer wants to charge me approx. $400 to fix, 2nd problem is that my idler pulley is bad and in the process distroying the serpentine drive belt approx. $200 to repair. I feel gm (Saturn) need to own up to these common problems with there vehicles and repair them under recall. The NHTSA has a service bullentin on the exhaust problem that just came out oct. 2004 bullentin #040605010 (service procedure for replacement of resonator and intermediate pipe) I also feel a car that has 33,300 miles shouldnt need all of this kind of work done to it when these kind of issues usually happen around 60-70,000 miles on any other normal car. I will never buy another gm product, this is my first especially with this low of milage - this has been a big disappointment and let down. Thank you - please put in effect a recall for these issues. . . . . I think gm customers have spent enough on repairs. I very unhappy first Saturn (gm) owner.
