Bumps are present but they are not intrusive or uncomfortable. The only flaw I have with the handling is the steering’s road feel. I was amazed at its tire grip, and how no matter how hard I pushed, the tires would not squeal at all. There is a sense of fluidity that enables it to carve corners so well. It is nicely balanced and always quick to turn. Some people may find the steering too heavy, but to me, the steering weight is ideal. To sum up, the Aura is a good looking sedan inside and out. The interior is appealing and inviting, and the orange lighting is reminiscent of older Saturns, including our 1993 SL. The interior is similar to other GM models, or more specifically Chevrolet models. For some reason, I really like the wheel design as they are unusual but they accentuate the athletic design nicely. The taillights are slightly too banal for my taste. A single bar running across the trunk lid finishes off the look. It is well detailed as evident by the exhaust opening and the bumper design. The window line is crisp, and the shapely fender flares give it some athleticism to the side profile. The side profile is the most exciting aspect of this sedan. Prominent headlights and a nicely trimmed grille with a single chrome bar help complete the look. With that said, it is a clean and minimalist design. The front end is completely identical to an Opel/Vauxhall Vectra. It was discontinued in 2009 due to Saturn being terminated as a result of GM’s bankruptcy. It was a success as it garnered the North America Car of 2007 award. Based closely off the European Opel Vectra, the Aura combined a European driving experience with European styling. Replacing the disappointing L-Series family sedan, the Aura was intended to revitalize Saturn. With that in mind, I was excited to review a Saturn. It was aquamarine blue but in certain light, it was green. When I think of Saturn, I think of the 1993 Saturn SL that we had when I was growing up.

When parts are available, owners will be mailed a second letter to come in to have the applicable bulletin applied. GM expects to send an interim notification around May 28, 2014. GM will notify owners, and dealers will perform one of four bulletins. These fluctuations can cause one or more of these conditions: the brake lights to illuminate without the brake pedal being pushed the brake lights to not illuminate when the pedal is pushed difficulty disengaging the cruise control moving the gear shifter out of the 'PARK' position without pushing the brake and disablement of crash avoidance features such as traction control, electronic stability control, and panic braking assist features. In the affected vehicles, increased resistance in the Body Control Module (BCM) connection may result in voltage fluctuations in the Brake Apply Sensor (BAS) circuit.
