had one fail while the fast lane have you?
I'm not an auto mechanic, but my father was, so I ended up working on a lot of cars. I've driven close to a million miles in my life so far, many of those in highly used vehicles.
My 2000 Aero is the only car ever to die in the fast lane. This was somehow much more unsetteling than a flat tire at speed or other auto mechanical problems.
The folks at Saab know this is an issue & feel the main offender is heat,yet have done nothing to address the issue other than some apparently ineffective software mods. Their brothers make my GMC pick up which also has individual coils for each plug. Ignition failure is all but unknown and the plugs last 100k mi
I like driving my Saab so much I bought another a 2003 Aero- but, yes there is a spare DI in the trunk
This not like the Audi unintended acceleration issue. That was not real. The DIC failures are real. Just because VW & others have a problem too doesn't make it OK. Agitate for a fix.
