What owners wrote
The saturn l200 I own will not start on an incline when there is 1/4 tank of gas in it. In order to start the vehicle I must put the car in neutral and roll down the incline to a level street. This is dangerous. I have called both the dealership and saturn the manufacturer. They have stated it is an engineering problem. It must be fixed. There is a genuine danger here.
In the year 2003 after having my l200 for about 6 months 1000 miles my fuel pump went it was under warranty but I took it to saturn of clearance they told me there was nothing wrong so I was almost home and black smoke was flowing out of my tail pipe and when I stopped to get some gas after I got gas I went to start my car and it wouldn't start then it would and it would stall so I took it back up there the second time and they said oh its your fuel pump well why didn't they listen the first time .
