98 SW2 - where do they rust??

I have not looked at Saturns before but my sister is looking to buy a wagon. Where do the Wagons typically show rust? I live in Ohio where we use salt all winter long on the roads.

Any place you find steel ............. sooner or later you'll find rust.

Seeing as how you're in the rust belt where they use a lot of salt, the first things I'd look at would be the suspension and exhaust parts.

The brackets that support the exhaust system seem to collect a lot of rust

Buy one from the SW, like AZ or NM. I had a friend in MI (now deceased) who bought Chrysler cars from IA in the 80's as they did not use salt at the time.
