On july 28, 2004, driving east on hwy 221 toward marathon, ny when I passed over a flooded section of road in a 2003 saturn vue. The vehicle spun and rolled over twice. I have since received a recall notice from saturn secondary to possible suspension failure and rollover risk. The car is being held by my insurance company, usaa auto, at co-part, 46 zuk pierce road, central square, ny 13036. The stock number is 681194. I would like to know whether suspension failure contributed to this rollover accident.

Bark on 5/15/2004 I noticed the rear driver side tire on our 2003 saturn vue with uneven wear. The passenger side was also but not as bad. Took car into saturn they said we must have hit something and bent some part of the rear suspension causing the tire to go out of alinement. My wife drives this car and doesn't remember hitting thing let alone something that could bend metal. They charge us $324.63 to repair and replace one tire. They said that warrentee did not cover this. Now I see that a test caused the rear suspention to bend and they have a recall. They won't tell me what they are going to do, and I not really sure just what they replaced last time, this might be related? I still need to replace the passenger side tire, as soon as I can afford a new one, but I think this might be related to the recall. If so is saturn liable for the past repairs? How can I find out what they intend to replace in the recall? Thanks for your help.
We have had the torsion bar support replaced 3 times in our 2003 saturn vue.
Had very significant swaying back & forth while traveling on I-95 at 70 MPH on 4 or 5 different occasions. Didn't happen all the time but did happen going down to fl and also returning back from fl. Only noticeable at high speeds.
First my engine blew because saturn did not put oil back into my vue during a routine oil change next my control computer in the vue had to be replaced because it did not work. Now my transmission cover needs replaced. I also hear about potential problems with the rear end suspension now. I bought a new vue for its reliability and it is not reliable all on saturns fault.
My 2003 fwd saturn vue has had constant front-end, steering, and braking issues that could result in a crash. The vue has 34,000 miles on it. Since 10,000 miles, it has been in the shop nearly every month for loose front end suspension parts, loose steering parts, loose brake parts, etc. The dealership claims they cannot duplicate the problems. Once they are duplicated for them, they claim to replace parts and that the issues are resolved, although there is little or no change in symptoms. The vehicle does not feel safe when driving it, and the current problems may result in a crash.
The car pulls to the right when accelerating. This happens from a stop as well as when at highway speeds. I feel it is very unsafe and could cause an accident.
