The SAAB 9-5 is one of the most reliable European cars, while the X-Type is one of the least reliable.
I was bored the other day and surfed on over to Roadfly's X-Type bulletin board. Holy smokes, Batman!
Most of the first page of threads was full of problems people were experiencing with their Jags. Right now there are messages about problems with door handles, keyfob problems, ECM failures, overheating, engine failures, gearbox faults, headlight washer covers, bent wheels, etc.
One post I read the other day had to do with this guy whose engine computer freaked out after he turned on the cruise control. The engine totally cut out, all the warning lights came on, the car had to be towed, and I think the dealer had to reflash the computer module??
Surf on over to the X-Type BB, it's scary!
