9-3 serviceablility

I’m looking at buying a used 9-3. I have done a fair amount of research, but I still have a few questions: First, does the new “computer brain” in the 9-3 allow independent repair shops to service this car? (I live a hundred miles from the nearest authorized dealer.) Second, I hear a lot of negative comments regarding a torque steer problem in this model; why is this not prevalent in other FWD vehicles? Is the torque steer complaint for real or is it just a gripe from auto journalist who are used to reviewing Hondas and such? Finally, how reliable is the 9-3? I’ve read all sorts of testimonials/horror stories. I’m getting out of newer Grand Cherokee due to the repetitive maintenance and defects it has. I want a fun car, with the utility of an SUV, and above all -longevity. Am I on the right track? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. –Thanks!
