I bought a 1999, "Certified Used", Saab sedan about seven months ago. On the way home, the thing wobbles like mad at around 60mph (due to traffic, only got it up to about 55mph on test drives). Called the dealer, from the car on the way home, they thought it was the tires not being balanced, took it back a couple of days later, they balanced them. That didn't fix it. Take it back again a few weeks later and also complain about the car idling like an out of balance, diesel, tractor and a thunk noise when you back the car up. They tell me it must be the tires, which are not covered by warranty, and that all four cylinder cars are a "little rough". I actually thought about buying one of the new 9-3s but held off when the third brake light cover fell off my 9-5 while I was going to the dealer. Just fell off. At this point I'm pissed. We take the car back, tell them the same wobble, vibration, thunk, and now a couple of other complaints we've had all along. Now it turns out that the car has TWO cracked engine mounts and a BROKEN tranny mount. Our symptoms/complaints have never varied yet suddenly these things are all screwed up on a car that passed a 100+ point inspection to be "certified". The service manager (we'd been dealing with the owner) tells us that these problems are very likely the reason for all our complaints. Except the cover falling off of course. Can't believe I've been driving around in a car that had all those problems. Could anything else have been screwed up. Anything I should check on?

Thanks,

Bryan
