Reliability and Durability of the Saturn VUE: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2008 4dr SUV 257-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed automatic FWD
No problems at all in almost 20K miles, my 2004 Vue went 120K with only a fuel Tank sender problem.
2008 4dr SUV 257-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
I have had the vehicle over one year now and have had absolutely no issues whatsoever. I have almost 26,000 Kilometers on the vehicle - 3 oil and filter changes (the next one is not due for about 2 months).
2007 4dr SUV 170-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid
4-speed automatic FWD
Only one problem since purchase which was covered under warranty.
2007 4dr SUV 248-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
So far, I have never had it break down on me. I have driven it to North Carolina and back, driven it to work 5 days a week 66 miles round trip.
2006 4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic FWD
This has been as reliable a car as I have ever owned. At 100,000 miles it was still on all original parts except brake pads, wipers, tires and one rear wheel bearing.
2006 4dr SUV 143-horsepower 2.2L I4
5-speed manual FWD
I owned my last Vue brand new, I only put a wheel bearing into it after 5 1/2 years. I loved that truck due to its excellent record.
2006 4dr SUV 143-horsepower 2.2L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
I have owned it for 16 months and have put 20K miles on it, with no problems at all. Sweet engine.
2006 4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic FWD
I have 98,000 miles on the car and have only had one repair, a bad rear wheel bearing covered under warranty. It starts and runs every time I need it.

Honda V6 and transmission
2005 4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic FWD
It has a Honda drive train.
2004 4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic FWD
Our 2002 has been very reliable, only a couple of times has it been down, once for a crank sensor shortly after we bought it used, and the 2nd time when we hit 90,000 miles and the plugs fouled out.
2004 4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD
I have owned the car for over a year and have had no problems yet.
