What owners wrote
I have had problems with visibility with my 2008 saturn aura since I purchased it new. I have not been able to see out of the interior windshield panel. It has almost caused me numerous wrecks. In addition I have had to completely remove all 4 head rests in order to see. After 30 years of driving with no accidents or citations, due to the same visibility problem, I was t-boned crossing a major highway and my saturn had to be towed.
Noticed as I got in my car, the driver's side seat tilted. My dealer told me that the frame snapped and would cost approx. $1,200 to fix. This is a potential safety issue and the frame should be recalled.
