If you are not under warranty, get ready to write a check to fix your car.
Mechanical failure can occur for almost any reason, or for no good reason at all, and while SAAB's are generally reliable what you describe can happen to a 6 year old car with (relatively) high miles. If you rally expect trouble-free and no repair motoring, lease a new cae every three years.
Unless there is something else not mentioned, I do not think SAAB has any particular responsibility to subsidize your car or its upkeep and repair after the warranty period.
I would try an independent shop for the repairs as they likely will charge less, maybe much less, for both the parts and the labor.
Good Luck
