L300 Issues - Do you share my frustration? .....

I recently purchased a 2002 Saturn L300, It's probably been two and a half months now and the Service Engine Soon Light comes on, within 15 mins the car feels like it jumps as I am driving and or as it is accelerating. I get on the web and look up an questions, concerns, or recalls. I find out that there is an issue with the coolant temp sensor, which can cause the service engine light to come on. The next day I call the dealership and schedule a time to take my car in to be fix (warranty). Well, here it is a Thursday the car was in the shop on Monday and I was called to pick it up yesterday - This morning my Service Wrench light comes on and my car is jumping again - Would anyone have any answers to my curent diliema???????? .......

Could be your MAF sensor. When these go bad, they have potential to play havoc on your car, as this is what determines fuel trims, shift points, etc, based on your driving style.
