I have a 2004 Arc with about 16,000 miles now. Have had failures of the CD player,(failed to play or eject: replaced) window lift assembly,(Window fell into door: all parts replaced) battery ( replacement, after a 80 mile tow from the side of the road that stranded me) and 2 recalls ( seat belts and remotes)and now have received a service bulletin for software upgrade for sunroof.
Yesterday the "metal exhaust shield" fell down from the car and was scraping the pavement and upon stopping it fell off the car and will require replacement.( I assume..it goes in again tomorrow)
Sadly my dealer is 80 miles away and they have one SAAB tech so I have to get in " when he works".Usual wait is one week.
I really looked forward to my SAAB when purchased. Now...I'm not pleased.
