Hi, Dave,
When I had the infamous engine head problem, my dealer's service manager
referred me to Saturn Customer Service in Spring Hill, Tennessee
(http://www.saturn.com/saturn/contact...x.jsp?nav=7000). From what I
understand, my service manager confirmed with them that I had maintained my
Saturn (it was not a neglect problem) so they agreed to cover the cost of
parts (about $1000 retail).
Hope that helps!
