What owners wrote
Upon getting in my truck the change tray was slightly open . I got in and it cut my right leg one inch down from my knee. It began to bleed and skin was left on the sharp part of the tray. It has left a scar and I want to advise you how serious it was.
Now this is like the 5th time I think I have wrote a letter to this company and no one has answered me I've had problems with my car being parked on a hill and it rolls backwards when no one's inside of it and other little things thats on the saturn recall but my car is not on the list. But now I'm having a problem with my back door not shutting when I shut it it opens unexpectently. In the words of car talk it's called 1. Transmission case porosity at park pawl 2. Outside door handle sticks/bind.
