Saturn SL Lighting problems by year

My saturn that I've been driving for about a year and a half now, completely cut off in the middle of me driving it. Luckily I was at a drive they so so serious damage to me or anyone else. Could not get it to start back up for a good 5-10 mins. Also the transmission is going out in it and I'm constantly having to add fluid so it doesnt skip. The rear tail lights keep having to be replaced because they keep blowing out.

The gm ignition problems prompting the current recall also affected the car above. I bought the 2002 saturn new in march of 2003, and owned it for over 10 years, selling it last fall to a friend. I had it at the jake sweeney (cincinnati) dealership several times for strange "electrical" problems. (Car did not have auto door locks or windows - everything was manual). I would be driving, when all the dash gauges would go out. It would register no speed, no temp, no gas, no rpms. Odometer didn't move. I could...

I can not understand why this board has allowed the use of "driving lights" on cars on our highways. These lights are misused constantly and pose (in my opinion) a severe safety hazard. They are used for driving in the rain and considered sufficient during dusk and evening hours. They present a reduced visibility and a danger to other drivers. They are especially a problem since they do not turn on the tail lights. Coming up on such a vehicle using driving lights at dusk in the rain is one of the worst...

I was stopped by a fellow driver a couple days ago when he informed me that I had no brake lights. I pulled over and inspected my lights and realized that when my headlights are on my brake lights go out. I have heard that several of the 2000 sl1's have this problem. I would like to know if anything is being done to fix it.*Jb

When driving car and raining with windshield wipers on the 3rd level of delay they function normally, but when you switch to "low" on the windshield wipers, windshield wipers still stay on delay 75% of the time, and work properly the other 25%. Use of the turn signal also seems to affect them switching back to delay on their own, which is very dangerous when it's raining and I'm trying to change lanes to go around someone and can't see. This problem has been getting continually worse and worse. When taken to the dealership, I was told that the technician could not duplicate the problem.*Ak
