Decals problems have been much too common to be a "wax" issue.
While Saab isn't responsible for debris or curb hits, the woefully inadequate plastic mounting brackets, non replaceble lenses, and failure to improve the design is a Saab shortcoming and causes unnecessary expense. Before the 9-5, I've never had to replace a foglight in a car I've owned. With the last bump to the side of my bumper by some jerk in a parking lot, I've been through 4 or 5 lights now. The design is MUCH too fragile.
Headlights: I think these are too common, too. Some feel that the DRL's contribute. I've replaced 3 in the last 40K miles / 2 years. Definately more than any other car I've owned, including those with overwattage bulbs.
