Dex-Cool Coolant is good for 5-years/150,000 miles...

I recently had the brake system and coolant systems flushed on my 2005 9-3 Aero. The dealer questioned as to why I wanted the work done. I had to remind him that the Saab owners manual recommended a brake fluid flush every 48-months (4 years) and that Dex-Cool coolant is rated for 5 years or 150,000 miles.
I had them flush the brake and coolant systems on my 2005 9-3 Aero even though the dealer said they never flush either the coolant or brake system until work needs to be done on them. Of course the dealer neglecting maintenance may be why the cars need service in the first place.
