Was there a recall on timing chain for Saturn L200 2002 model?

It has electric power steering and there is a fault with it. The ECM recognises this and won't left you drive it.

There was a recall on it.

Only 2006-2007 Chevrolet Malibu, Malibu Maxx, and Pontiac G6 models built between April and June 2006 are included in this recall. As with the initial recall-which included the Saturn Ion, Saturn Aura, Chevy HHR, and Chevy Cobalt-the electric power steering (EPS) in these vehicles can fail at any time while driving.Feb 17, 2015

You don't say which Saturn you have, but go to the following link and you can look it up:

contact the manufacturer , technical division direct by phone and make the inquiry

A recall for what ? I'm sure there are TSB's - technical service bulletins . Your best bet is call a GM dealer ! Chevy, Cadillac , Buick , GMC an ask them !
The Saturn Corporation is a registered trademark established on January 7, 1985, as a subsidiary of General Motors. The company marketed itself as a "different kind of car company" and operated somewhat independently from its parent company for a time with its own assembly plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee; unique models; and a separate retailer network.

Here is what you do. Find the VIN for the car and then get on google and find which is the closest GM dealer who was saddled with the Saturn warranty and maintenance burden. Call them on the phone, or drop by, give them your VIN and see if the timing chain recall was ever done on that car. If not then most likely GM will do that for you. If it was done then you are going to have to buy a timing chain kit on eBay or at a parts store and pay someone who knows what they are doing to put it in for you. This is not a repair for a first timer or the faint of mechanical heart. Replace ALL the wear parts which are under the timing cover, not just a new chain.

Before you go off half-cocked, take a very very long large screw driver and put the metal end on each turning component near the ticking sound, then with great care put the handle end on your ear. Please use some sense as this an become a hurtling projectile of death. Whatever is ticking will become clear. Parts stores sell stethoscopes for this, if you have long hair do yourself a favor and pay a bald friend. There is a chance it is not the timing chain.

That model has a chain.

There was a factory recall of the timing chain on the 2.2 Ecotec. This was done for me on my LW200, but then Saturn was still in business. Dealers are still around doing service though. Look over here for inside Saturn dope:

This engine has a bad design flaw in that the timing chain does not get any oil. Pretty much there are two types of failures. Failure around 20,000 miles and failure around 78,000 miles. All the engines they made for a few years had this flaw and no other engine will fit in this car. If you have to replace the engine with a used engine you can almost count on a failure again around these mileages. My timing chain failed at highway speeds pretty much wrecking the engine. If yours failed in the driveway you may be lucky enought to just replace the timing chain and maybe the head. I would get rid of this car if you get it running again. Give it back to the lousy saturn dealer. I hear they are buying a ton of used vehicles since GM is probably going to stop making new Saturns. Oh, also, I beleive the 2001 model is under recall so have the dealer fix it!

These engines have a timing chain, not a belt. They also have nylon coated guides under the cover that wear. If you change the chain yourself, or have it done, check the guides as well.

it has a belt. approx cost to replace belt, around $300
