I have to say that this upsets me

You'd want a rebuilt ? After what you went through ? No way !
First of all, I 've had SAABs for over 26 years, and had only 2 DI issues--- one on a 1991 SAAB 9000 at over 105,000 miles (back then, SAAB had the electrical cable permanently attached to it) and a 1998 NG 900 SET CV that was just under 20,000 miles.
The cars always ran!!! They just were s-l-o-w-e-r and s-l-o-w-e-r in performance. The 1998 was a spark knock problem that would not quit--which was easily diagnosed as the DI. The DI is a "consumable" item.
It's truly shameful to blame SAAB for an independent contractor's ineptness for a future (non-buying) decision--- ie you said "I think this will be our last SAAB" based on a 3rd party's mechanic ? Hmmmm.
This is not a SAAB Cars USA employee in ANY fashion. Would you say/write the same if this mechanic at your dealer came in to work drunk ? How precisely is this the manufacturer's fault?
Tell us how you went to the GM/or OWNER of the dealership and expressed these very dissatisfied feelings ! Oh, you didn't? Did your wife ?
Did you call SAAB Cars USA Customer Service and tell this to them ? No ?
Let's place any blame where it belongs----and in this case it lies with the local proprietorship--not the manufacturer.
SAAB builds great cars--- and I otta know after 1.26 million SAAB driven miles over the last 26 years!
Regards.
