Saturn SC2 owners have reported 3 problems related to tank assembly (under the gasoline fuel system category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
As with complaint 828481, my vehicle stopped in the middle of the highway and wouldn't run until I filled the gas tank. The gas tank had imploded. This happened twice - at approximately 34,000 miles (tank replaced under warranty -9/8/98) and again at approximately 63,000 miles (tank replaced at my expense - 9/20/2001). Both times, I was at highway speed, and both times I was lucky to be able to steer the car to the shoulder. The first time, the police on the NJ turnpike had me towed to a gas station - the second time, the police brought a five gallon can and poured it into my gas tank.

Gas tank imploded, and the vehicle stopped in the middle of the highway. Vehicle had to be towed. Please provide details.
It is a concern to me that my gas bangs around in tank and I hear it. It is so loud of a hi t at times that I think I have hit something. It is most noticable between 3/4 and 1/2 full. I have never been in a car that you hear the gas in it like this. Saturn told me this is how it is.
