VUE Recall
Does anyone know what suspension part(s) will be replaced during the VUE
recall? Has anyone had the work done yet? Howard |

I tried to have it done (see my "am I wrong here?" post).
They told me they won't have the parts until late October. I'm wondering if I should even bother, I've already got 65,000 miles on my 2003 VUE, and I haven't flipped it yet. I'm just afraid they won't get it right. It's like Mark Twain said, "a good watch is only a good watch until the tinkerers get a hold of it."

Can 2 adults and 3 kids fit in a Vue? Is there a big difference from the
earlist Vue to a 2004 Model? |

AFAIK, I have been told that Saturn has not completely decided on how to
exactly fix the rear suspension issue, ergo, no VUES have been repaired from the recall as of yet. They are trying to figure out the best way to fix all of them. Keep in touch with your Service mgrs to find out when this is going to happen. As far as if VUE drivers are in grave danger, the answer is - No, not unless you are driving like a maniac stunt driver and purposely try to maneuver your VUE to make it roll over as they did in the new NHTSA tests. marx404 |

We've put 5 adults in our 2003 VUE - but it was pretty tight in the back.

Does the Recall affect all VUE's or only certain years?

My wife took our 2004 VUE in for an oil change Friday 12/10/04. When
she came home, the windshield fluid was leaking from somewhere near the bottom of the resevoir. THE GOOD NEWS: When she went back today (12/13), the dealer scheduled an appointment on 12/14 to install the VUE RECALL rear suspension parts. The dealer, Saturn in West Michigan, said the parts became available on 12/1/04. They also will look at the leaking windshield fluid system. (I bet they nicked something when they changed the oil filter in the 4 cylinder ECOTECH engine.) I do not know if earlier model VUE's will be recalled, but the 2004 is definately being "fixed/modified." I will let you all know what "new" parts I see on the rear end when the job is finished. We do like our VUE, which is a FWD,CVT AUTO, 4 cyl ECOTECH. We have been getting 29++ on the highway! marx404 wrote: > Yes, all VUES and thier goal to start fixing this is Oct.
