GM May Complete Saturn Shutdown by the End of March, Not October 2010 as Previously Announced

From AutoWeek: "All of our efforts will be to sell down our remaining 2009 inventory," Susan Docherty, GM's vice president of U.S. sales, said today at a press event. "We'll have a little bit of carryover of that into the first quarter of 2010, but the objective is to keep our inventory somewhere between 425,000 to 450,000 units." Docherty said she is confident that GM will clear out the 2009-model-year inventory by January. Meanwhile, the company likely will shutter its Pontiac and Saturn brands by the end of the first quarter, Docherty said.

Retailer Recounts Details of Sudden Saturn Closure

Barbara Wieland from the Lansing State Journal: Sherrill Freeborough is finding there is life after Saturn. Freeborough was one of 340 Saturn dealers left hanging when GM's deal to sell the division to Penske Automotive Group collapsed September 30. GM quickly halted Saturn production - including dropping the Outlook crossover made at its Lansing Delta Township assembly plant - and began shutting down the brand. "It was sickening, disheartening," said the normally upbeat, optimistic Freeborough. "It took some time for the reality of it to sink in."

Paging Al Clapsaddle: Huge Incentives Help Build the Case for One Last Saturn Purchase

Unprecedented discounts on the last remaining Saturns present an enticing case to anyone in the market for a new car, especially if you're a Saturn owner. Al Clapsaddle, senior sales consultant at Saturn/West in Ohio, sent me an intriguing e-mail the other day detailing the laundry list of incentives available until November 30 — some of which are over and above those that were advertised nationally at the beginning of the month.

How To: Changing the Oil in a Saturn Outlook

Here is a step-by-step how-to guide that I put together after changing the oil in my 2009 Saturn Outlook with GM's 3.6L Direct Injection (DI) V6. The procedure should also work for anyone with who owns a GMC Acadia, Buick Enclave, and Chevrolet Traverse. This process worked for me, but I cannot accept any responsibility for the procedure or provide any guarantees.

SaturnFans.com is Now on Facebook

With General Motors' unfortunate decision to shutdown Saturn, the need for venues that enable owners and fans to communicate is greater than ever. In an effort to foster that communication across as many mediums as possible, SaturnFans.com can be followed via Twitter, RSS, ImSaturn, and now there's a fan page on Facebook. It's another place for Saturn owners — past and present — to socialize, share experiences, and offer support to each other in the wake of Saturn's untimely closing.

Comment by Sean Waldron on November 11, 2009 at 9:14am: junkyard...cheapest place to get parts like that....I would imagine that a dealer will charge you an arm and a leg for an interior piece like the glovebox or glovebox latch and handle (not sure which you broke)

Comment by Paul Elliot on November 11, 2009 at 8:38am: At a dealer. They do still exist and they do have parts.

Comment by Vincent A.Carranza on November 11, 2009 at 12:24am: I just broke the handle to my glove box on my 2006 VUE... Anybody know where I can find one?

I've been trying to get onto www.saturnfans.com and haven't been able to connect. Are you still there or only on this site now?

Comment by Mike Benke on August 6, 2009 at 11:27am: Glad to join the group. This is a great place for Saturn owners. We mention it to all customers who buy new Saturns from us.

Comment by tim turks on June 1, 2009 at 11:17pm: SORRY SATURN FANS BUT IT IS ALL ABOUT THE MONEYYes we love our Saturns for many reasons. For me, it is because I have owned other cars that rusted out over time, were always in need of repair, were hard to service, etc... So I knew after buying my first Saturn in 1993 that I had finally found a nice road handling, well built, dependable, long lasting car

Car companies require the bottom line to survive, and the bottom line happens to be money. The killer for Saturn can be easily summed up by saying "the average consumer is clueless"

We all know Saturn cars are great cars but let me give you a classic example of the average consumer mentality

A women I worked with was looking to buy a new car. I recommended Saturn to her. She later told me she looked at Saturns and felt the interior appeared somewhat cheap. She ended up buying a Pontiac GrandAm. Her car spent a lot of time in the repair shop but hey, at least her interior didn't appear cheap
