I just came across your listing and you described to a "T" the problem that I encountered yesterday. I was driving with my two small children in the car (2001 Saab 9-5 wagon (4-cylinder) when someone pulled up beside me to tell me that gas was pouring our of my car.
I stopped the car and the remainder of the tank continued to flow. Once the fire chief okay'ed the car for transport, (This was required by the towing company.) I had the car towed to the dealership.
The dealership indicated that the clip for the fuel line had come undone and that the fuel line had come loose. They also indicated that "they had seen this before".
They removed the fuel tank, replaced the fuel line, replaced the fuel tank and placed a clamp over the line. They indicated that this should have costed 3-4 hours labor, but they would only charge me 1 hour ($120).
Based on your (and others) incidents, I don't think this is reasonable. I think Saab should pick up the entire bill.
Anyone else with this problem. I think Saab needs a recall or check on this...
