Engine Oil Leaking Problems of Saturn SL2

In 2003 my daughter bought a 1999 Saturn with 47000 miles that had just been turned in from a lease from a dealer and it started smoking and using a quart of oil per 1,000at which time we contacted this agency and gm because the car was alaways dealer serviced and had not yet reached it's half life. Saturn told us that this was normal howver, the condition has only worsed over time and it's now using 1. 5 qt's per 1000 miles and smoking worse. I bet the epa would like to know that. Additionally the rotor have failed twice becoming warped and the motor mount has failed along with a coolent temp sensor. Many people have reported these same problems and gm knows it. Once again we asked them for some goodwill and they turned us down saying that the car (now) has too many miles even tho they said that it would be documented but it appears that they have strung us along doing leak down test at our cost from 2003 and from our gov complaint until now while telling us that this was normal use. . . . . . . . . . . . That was wrong and they should face a recall because they have allowed a problematic engine which they knew about to be sold to the general public and then they refused to help the consumers in need. I'll never buy a Saturn or a gm again. And, I plan to sell my sons new Saturn too after this poor treatment.

Cylinder head cracked in engine after approx. 85000 miles. All engine oil leaked from the automobile as a result. Engine was covered with oil upon inspection but luckily, did not ignite. Needed to be replaced with new engine at a cost of $2400 as repairs would have been risky and at a higher cost.

Ongoing problem with engine stalling. Vehicle been into dealer shop on three occasions, and problem still reoccurring. Dealer replaced oil pan due to oil pan leak. Glove box fell out due to the lock being broke. Ses light on due to terminal dislodged on 5 volt reference splice pack. Consumer has replaced the ecm due to stalling and found battery cable loose and fixed problem, however vehicle is still stalling.
