Saturn suspension problems

Owners have filed 416 complaints with NHTSA about the suspension on Saturn vehicles — 2% of everything reported about the brand, across 16 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Saturn VUE, worst in 2003.

These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
