Not to spoil anyone opinion of Saab or anything. My family has had Saabs for 20 years from the 99 EMS to my 9000 CSE-t. I have had NOTHING but trouble with the front brakes warping rotors and the like. My dealer has been through more staff then I would like to talk about. The owner of the dealership refuses to honor an X-Employees warranty with me as he said he is no longer here therefore I can no longer honor this. I have talk to the owner personally and he refuses to help me other that for me to keep his wallet full. I have talked to many Saab owners AND businesses in my area and not a one can stand this dealership or owner and would not do business with him if there were another place to buy and service under warranty. So...I am selling mine as I don't want to be a part of his group any longer! Wish you all the best.
