I've just had one fail on my '05 9/3 Aero, at 135K miles. Most/older cars have a single coil that serves all the spark plugs, with the voltage from the coil to each spark plug in turn via the distributor. When the coil failed, the car would stop. Our Saabs have one coil per cylinder, so if one coil fails, the car will still limp along with the other cylinders firing.
