Saturn alignment - Maintenance/Repairs - Car Talk Community
Feb 17, 2010 · I have a 2006 Saturn Ion. Got new tires and was told I needed an alignment. Their price was a little over $500 as it was a “custom” job on this car.

Of course the estimate fee would apply to the job! Went to a 3rd place ...
I miss my old alignment guy - Car Talk Community
Oct 22, 2024 · No offense intended… my comment was about your alignment tech’s assertion that total toe was the only thing that mattered. Toe out front and rear in the Saturn was not hard to drive at all. Not twitchy. The car was registered and insured for road use since we had to race it as GM built it. I took an 1100 mile trip with it.

Car Pulling to One Side - Maintenance/Repairs - Car Talk Community
Mar 30, 2011 · With any luck, you simply need an alignment, but if the odometer mileage on your mystery-vintage Saturn is high, or if you drive on very rough roads, it is also possible that you have badly worn front-end components–and that is a definite safety hazard.

It took all my strength to hold down the channel locks while the guy at the tire store worked the air wrench. The rubber mount was in mint condition.
