Over at the "other" forum...there is a thread about some wire that is causing the delay in building the cars ordered with automatics. Below is a quote taken from the thread:


"There is a flaw in the construction of the tranny, where a wire needs to be repositioned. If this is true, think that all the trannys being made have this problem, and now they have to be re made or fixed one by one. that would cause a major hold up..."


Is anyone here on this forum (Saturn employees?), familiar with this "flaw" and if so, can you provide more details and also what kind of timeframe are we talking here in terms of a "major hold up"???

Interresting but unsubstantiated... so far.
Makes me glad I prefer Manual though.

I'm more inclined to believe part availability hold ups then these types of issues.

I am yet to hear from any source I would deem creditable that the reason for auto delays have been design related. That doesn’t mean they cannot be, but none of the more reliable sources here, at SF, or elsewhere on the net have even hinted at that yet.

At this point, it is more than likely just supply issues.
