My Saturn has been slowly leaking coolant. I have dealt with this for over a year. I finally decided to have it fixed. $500 for a new water pump and belt. Mechanic states that at some point the car has overheated and is leaking coolant into the engine. Now the car is stuttering at stops and the service engine light has come on. I took it back and they say there is nothing they can do. What is wrong with my car now?
