Had my brother visiting this past weekend from out of town. He rented a new Cadillac DTS from Avis. Same issue with the radio and some of the interior trim. If GM is willing to do this to Cadillac, then Saab is just another cog in the corporate cost cutting machine.
In an interview recently, Bob Lutz was quoted as having said that due to Saab's lack of profitability some of this was to be expected. But, he specifically stated that it was going to be in areas where the consumer would not notice it.
Guess not.
