Have a loose crossbar on my 2009 Saturn Vue. Looks like a very proprietary wrench is needed.

Anyone know what kind that might be?

Thanks!

Here is the culprit, bolt is stamped with the number 5. There are no markings on the bars to denote a manufacturer.

 

That is not a Saturn part, it is some aftermarket rack mounted to the Saturn roof rack. No help here, sorry.

 

Bars were on when delivered, thought there might be other owners with the same bar.

Certainly it isn't made by saturn but it was their (or the dealership's) option.

 

Not that I can see it that well, but it looks like a multi splined bolt. I'd count the number of notches on it and see if one of the local auto parts stores has some like that. Probably 20 or more. I have a small set that MIGHT work on it that I got in the Kobalt tool section at Lowes. What I mean by small set is that there's 6 sockets in a 3/8" drive set-up. Kind of like the socket you need to remove the seat anchor bolts in an S series Saturn.

 

Stop by a Chevy dealer with your vin and ask them to generate a list of the vehicle as delivered. Should be able to back out either a GM part number or an aftermarket manufacturer, and possibly the tool that comes w with the set if purchased retail
