Hi everyone. Just bought a "slightly used" '02 white AWD VUE, and so far I love everything about it. Any problems I should keep an eye out for?
I live in Buffalo and wish it wasn't about to rain or I'd be out washing it.

Anyway, I'm glad I found this place. It looks like it'll be fun.

Cool, welcome to the VUE boards! Happy driving, and yes we do have good fun here. :-)

Welcome! i hope u enjoy ur Vue! u may hear of ppl having problems with their Vues and u may be led to believe they're very problematic but for the most part they do very well. Mine is an AWD 4 like ur 02 but it was an '03 model (but still new since i got it with only 200 miles and it was a demo and never registered before i took it) and after 2100 miles and almost 2 months it's been trouble free,performs well and is great on gas too!

Welcome,
My 03 has been bulletproof for the last 6 mo. 10K Mi. and counting. Only prob was a noisy exhaust rattle but the dealer finally listened to me and found the prob. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I have mine.

Welcome and congrats on your purchase. I had an aunt who once lived in Buffalo. Always amazed why she would want to when I read about those 4 foot snowfalls. Can I assume SUVs are a big commodity there? Again welcome.

Congratulations, welcome to the board, don't let all the gripes and groans get to you most of us are 2,3,4 time owners of Saturn vehicles and this is a good forum to get our frustrations out and like any other vehicle it will have it's problems (but that what warranties are for). There is allot of good info in the site but do a search first, (I had to learn the hard way). Once again welcome.

Well the roads do get a little hairy at times.

Yep! I bought it with 28k and got the extended till 100K.

Thanks again.
