It looks as though the lamp has fallen back from it's intended location. I had a problem with the fog lights on my UK spec 9-5 in that they had a habit of falling out. Saab UK swear that I must have hit something in the road to dislodge the locating brackets - not knowingly true. They replaced one out of goodwill as I had played up about paying for the first replacement. One losing the third lamp, I checked out the problem myself. The bracket holding the lamp in place is part of the lamps plastic casing and of poor design. The weakness of the plastic must result in cracking due to vibration. My "fix" was to liberally spread large amounts of fibre glass around the weak points of the bracket to add strength. Not pretty, but effective.
